It is easy to say that you know what you are talking about and a lot harder to show that to people. I thought that I would tell you my story and give you a chance to get to know me. Again, please feel free to email me if you have any questions!
I am a mother to a 2 year old little boy and LOVE it. We (my husband and I) believe that parenthood is a team effort and therefore we work together on everything and respect each others opinions and decisions. I told my husband while I was pregnant that I wanted to cloth diaper and though he wasn't excited about it like I was he knew that it was a good decision for our son and for our family so he was willing to do it. We started out using BumGenius 3.0 because that seemed to be the best place for us. It was a one size (OS) diaper and we loved the idea of a pocket so we could decide how much absorbency he would need. We also liked how user friendly it was. We quickly found out that we were missing out on so much. We tried prefolds and my husband liked those but I wasn't a fan of them. BumGenius did an awesome job in marketing so we didn't see a lot of the other brands and options that were out there but the longer we cloth diapered the more we realized that we DIDN'T like BumGenius and started trying out different options. I knew that there was fleece covers but I didn't like what I was hear from people and I knew there was wool as well but I'm not a fan of wool and I didn't like the work that was involved in cleaning it. I am a simplistic person and want a product that takes the least amount of work! I loved the idea of OS because I didn't have to keep buying more diapers and I didn't have a ton of diapers in my house!
I soon decided that I should go into business in the cloth diaper industry. There wasn't enough resources out there and a lot of people were interested in learning more. I decided I would start and I got some wholesale accounts and started talking to people. I unfortunately got involved with a company that was suppose to help me with my website and instead took everything we had and left me dry. Without any money I was stuck. I was lost and had no idea where to go from there. I took a step back and stopped working on the business for awhile until I could decide what to do and where to go from there. I thought about closing everything down and moving on but I love doing what I was doing and I didn't want to hang up my hat just yet! So, I decided instead I would start over where I could. I started this blog and got out some business cards and we will see where it goes from there!
In addition to continuing my cloth diapering business I also decided to start my own Avon business! I love Avon products and I love how they empower women! I feel better about myself on the outside when I where some makeup and I love their health products, kitchen products and kid products! We also decided to have another child and will be welcoming the next addition to our family in June, which we are so excited about!!
I hope that I am able to help you and will do whatever I can to get you the information you need to make the best decision for your family. Cloth diapering is a personal choice that I think every family should make on their own. Whether its to do it or not or what type is the best for you it is all personal! I'm just happy to help you through that processes
