Under the Nile Organic Cotton Diapers

Under the Nile brings a little green into your child's life with diapers made from 100% certified organic Egyptian cotton. Produced in an environmentally friendly manner that's easy on the earth, we offer a beautifully made alternative to disposable diapers that not only looks and feels good, but is good for your child.

As parents ourselves we created Under the Nile because of our concern about the pollutants that our children are exposed to, which includes the clothes they wear. Our diapers and garments are safe, pesticide-free, comfortable and naturally dyed.

The farm that grows our cotton and makes our apparel focuses on fair trade and provides a worldwide model community for organic agriculture along with a supportive work place. Under the Nile is committed for bringing you and your family the highest quality organic products available anywhere.

Why use organic cotton diapers? Would you like to wear stiff paper (and/or plastic) underwear 24 hours a day? The comfort of cotton is the #1 reason to use cloth diapers.  And organic cotton is not submitted to the many chemical processes of non-organic cotton, and so is soft, safe and pure to put against your baby’s skin.

When you choose to use organic cotton diapers, you will leave a cleaner world for your baby, and your grandchildren. Disposables leave behind an average of 2.7 tons of non-biodegradable waste (not to mention the waste produced by manufacturing them) per child. Compare that to a few dozen cotton diapers, and the responsible choice also becomes an easy one.

With disposables, some estimate you spend an average of $2000 per child. Cloth compares at only an average of $350 per child (with the added but minimal cost of electricity and water to launder them). You can rest assured that your money is being well-spent and not going to "waste" in a land-fill!

It's a little-known fact that cloth diaper children potty train earlier, and with less effort on their parent's part. This has mostly to do with the fact that when a cloth diaper is wet, they can feel the sensation. Chemical laden disposables can feel so dry your baby never gets a chance to understand what their body is doing.
