    If you go on naty.com Nature Baby's website you can print off a £4 voucher for their eco-friendly nappies, they are currently £4.29 in Boots so you only pay 29p for a pack of nappies.

    'Eco-friendly' and 'baby' don't belong in the same sentence.

    Sorry to say, but your little cherub is, by proxy, a massive pollutant. As am i, as are you.

    No doubt that's true, but it's no reason not to try to make an effort.

    iT REALLY DEPENDS ON THE PERSON, WHAT BRANDS THEY WANT OR DONT WANT(sorry about the caps) someone may want "totally" eco, all through the companies owned, others just the actual product.

    I dont know if "eco" is a bit like the cruelty free stuff, thats a minefield, lol.

    Pampers, if you do get eco from them , are owned by is it unilever, as a bigger company they are not as ethical as they could be:)
    if you are doing this as a business(and not just for a friend) then you need to understand the whole concept of "eco" same with " cruelty free" .

    Hope you get the stuff you need.

    It's not a business, just a favour for a friend as I've done them for friends before and word has spread. Lol. As far as I'm concerned there's nothing "Eco" about a disposable nappy, so I just got Pampers on offer. But I managed to get some of the Nature Babycare wipes and nappy sacks, and some organic baby wash. Didn't cost much more than standard stuff really so I don't mind that.

    Not sure that the 100% polyester fleece blanket will go down too well with an Earth Mother type, but the little monkey embroidered on the corner will look lovely on the cake!:D
