Nurtured Products for Parenting Inc.

Description

Since the opening of the retail location Nurtured has become more than a store, it has nurtured a community. Customers indicate that Nurtured is a resource and a broader part of the post-partum experience and the child raising years that follow. The motivation of the business is to educate parents and parents-to-be so they can make informed decisions when it comes to the care of their children, the environment, and our shared future. Becoming a parent changes everything. It is Nurtured's mission to reduce the impact we, as consumers, are having on our environment. We continually search for high-quality products that would last the life of our children and beyond, setting high standards for the products we select. We believe in independent business and the importance of supporting our local economy. As employees, we go out of our way to shop with independent retailers who, like us, believe in developing a relationship with their clients. We strive to provide individualized customer support for our families on an ongoing basis and have earned a respected reputation among the cloth diapering community.

If you have purchased a dark coloured wool diaper cover, the dye will bleed. For bleeding wool, mix 3 cups white vinegar with 3 tablespoons salt. Wet wool in lukewarm water, add to vinegar/salt mixture. Microwave for two 3-minute sessions. Allow to COMPLETELY cool, rinse in lukewarm water, wash as directed above and re-lanolize. If you rinse before allowing the water to completely cool, you may unintentionally felt your wool diaper cover. Drying Always follow manufacturer's recommendations! Drying your diapers in the sun not only provides natural bleaching thanks to UV rays, but is easier on the fibres, helping your diapers last longer. Pocket diapers and PUL covers should be dried periodically in the dryer, this helps to "seal" the laminate and maintain the waterproof qualities of the fabric. However, with all diapers and covers, do not use fabric softener sheets , as these will leave a waxy build-up on your diapers and covers, cutting down the absorbency or cause repelling. This can also happen if you use fabric softener sheets for non-diaper laundry as the waxy build-up coats the inside of your dryer as well.

6) I'd never see the world the same way again. I was lucky and didn't suffer from an ounce of post-partum depression. Instead, I saw everything through rose coloured glasses. I was high for days, weeks, heck, I KNOW I don't see the world like I used to. My child, my beautiful child. Everything he did and does is magnificent. And you will probably feel the same way too. However, there are devastating lows. That day 10 I was talking about? I was throwing pillows at the wall, yelling, swearing, because I just.wanted.to.go.to.sleep. When it's good, it's great, and when it's bad, it's bad. Hormones rushing, sleep deprivation like you've never experienced in your life, and someone else- who is a mere eight pounds- is suddenly your boss... I'm telling you now, you're going to be up and down, down and down. Love like you never though possible, and stress like you've never experienced in your life. If you feel out of control, go and seek help, immediately. Please.
