Sustainable living with baby

Even when we’re surrounded by the chaos of everyday life, we can still easily inject a dose of sustainability into being parents. We’re all familiar with the endless mountains of washing, what seems like non-stop cleaning, and the countless plastic packages all around us. But don’t be discouraged because it’s not so complicated to have an eco-friendly lifestyle, particularly with a baby.

Let’s take a dive into the subject together, and find out how you can organise your life with baby in a way that conserves resources. Together we’ll take a look at sustainable baby care, and make important changes in our everyday lives so that we can make a contribution to a green world. We’ve got all the information for you here – from sustainable baby products to simple tips around living sustainably with your baby.

Less is more!

Choosing a sustainable baby layette is really important because it smartly connects waste avoidance and resource conservation. During the exciting period of becoming a parent, we often want to give our little darlings only the very best, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that we need vast amounts of new products and disposable items.

Instead of swamping ourselves in a flood of baby products, we should consciously choose sustainable alternatives that are long-lasting and eco-friendly. Sustainable baby clothes made of green materials or high-quality wooden toys are just a few examples of such options. In that way, sustainability doesn’t mean going without, but is rather a conscious choice of things that will give our baby just as much pleasure and comfort, but without taking such a toll on the environment.

Green Saver’s Guide

#1 Sustainable baby clothes
Treat your baby to the very best – and make it sustainable! Choose high-quality babywear that’s made of eco-friendly materials such as organic cotton. Not only are these fabrics gentle on baby’s skin, they last longer as well, which means that they can be passed on to other children.

#2 Home-made baby food
Start your home-made baby food adventure! Make meals from fresh, seasonal and regional ingredients. Choose organic products that will benefit both your baby and the environment. Say no to disposable packaging and industrially manufactured jars. Instead you can conjure up home-made fruit or veg purée yourself, which you freeze for later use too. That will help you to reduce packaging waste; you’ll be relying on reusable containers, and you can ensure that your baby has a healthy, eco-conscious diet.

#3 Toys that don’t harm the environment
Awaken your baby’s creativity with sustainable toys! Discover wooden toys and DIY creations made of natural and recycled materials. These lovingly-made toys not only encourage your baby’s creativity but also last longer than those made of plastic. With toys like these, you can take the pressure off the environment, while boosting your baby’s play development.

#4 Experiences in nature
Wrap up your baby, and go off together on a walk or cycling trip to discover the beauty of nature in green parks, woods, or beside water. These experiences in nature also create valuable moments of connection between you and your baby. In this soothing natural setting you can discover the wonders of our environment together and create valuable memories.
