UPDATE: SproutBaby.com Debuts New Line of Eco-Friendly Disposable and Cloth Diapers

Thu Nov 5, 2009 6:17pm EST
  LOS ANGELES, CA, Nov 05 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
SproutBaby.com, the leading online destination for environmentally
conscious parenting, has added biodegradable, disposable and reusable
cloth diaper lines to its robust offering of green parenting products.
With diapering being one of the most expensive and environmentally taxing
adventures of parenthood, SproutBaby.com's specialty diaper selection
offers parents a much needed alternative to traditional diapers found at
the grocery store.

    Standard diapers cost approximately $3,000 over the first 30 months of a
baby's life -- while a set of SproutBaby.com's cloth diapers for the same
period costs roughly a third of this amount. SproutBaby.com's
biodegradable diapers offer an eco-friendly option for parents who need
the convenience of disposables.

    "Parents are eager for intelligent diapering solutions because they
understand the tremendous impact this decision has on the welfare of their
babies and the planet," said Jody Sherman, Founder and CEO of
SproutBaby.com. "With our new biodegradable disposables and reusable cloth
diapers, parents can rest easy knowing they are having a minimal impact on
the environment while providing the best care for their baby at an
affordable price point."

    Diapers are a new category for SproutBaby.com, which has become known to
web-savvy parents for thoroughly vetted, eco-friendly products such as
SproutFoods organic baby food, polycarbonate-free feeding solutions, and
safe and gentle mom and baby care products.

    Biodegradable, disposable diapers:

    Nature Babycare diapers, SproutBaby's disposable, biodegradable option,
offer the most eco-friendly decomposition of any non-reusable diaper
available today. Ranging in six sizes to meet babies' needs until toilet
training, the Nature Babycare diapers offer maximum environmental
protection with the convenience of a disposable product.

    Reusable, cloth diapers:

    For 100% environmental sustainability, SproutBaby also offers three
eco-friendly, reusable, cost-saving cloth diaper lines: Play All Day, Baby
BeeHinds and Kissaluvs. Cloth diapers create no disposable waste and can
cost roughly a third of the price of disposable diapers over a baby's
first two and a half years of growth.

    "I recently learned that a baby will go through approximately 8,000 diaper
changes from birth to toilet training -- that's a lot of diapers!" said
Wendy Wallace, loyal SproutBaby mom. "Not getting this right would be a
big mistake. I owe it to my child to make a smart decision for her and the
world she will inherit."
