Grovia cloth, a perfect combination of ease and environmentally-friendly

Monday, February 27th, 2012

In the last year, we’ve broadened our cloth diapering selection by leaps and bounds. We’ve discovered new favorites and remembered why some brands are tried and true and always on our shelves.
We like to consider ourselves experts with a dozen or so cloth diapered bums amongst our staff – that’s a enough cloth diapers to fill a small warehouse! So yes, we know what we’re talking about.

One gem we discovered in the last year is the company GroVia whose tag line, a diaper for every family, offers solutions many Bellani families are looking for. From the company website:

We understand the importance of convenience as parents, but we also know that as a company we have a responsibility to our planet. This is why we’ve created a diaper for every family, to teach the world that green diapering is easy, affordable and can be done anytime, anywhere! The brainchild of a mother of four, GroVia diaper systems help take the mystery (and fear) out of cloth diapers–offering modern parents an eco-friendly, stylish, economical, and easy-to-use diaper.

We carry each of GroVia’s options for families – traditional cloth, hybrid diaper and their BioDiaper. Here’s what you need to know about each option:

Cloth Diaper

This unique one-size cloth system grows with baby and incorporates a convenient, easy to clean, one size diaper with soft waterproof outer and organic cotton inner– so parents spend less time washing and more time enjoying happy moments with baby.

Hybrid Diaper

The hybrid diaper system matches our unique one-size cloth shell with either a cloth soaker pad, or a GroVia Bio Soaker pad – made with biodegradeable and compostable materials. The perfect solution to on-the-go parenthood, travel-friendly and great for daycare, GroVia’s Hybrid Diapering system gives parents options in convenience without harming our planet.

 

All GroVia products are gentle on baby and our planet because they contain no harsh chemicals or toxins. You can rest assured diapering with GroVia your baby’s bum and the planet are in good hands!

Mio Fresh

Sunday, September 13th, 2009

Many members of the Bellani community choose to use cloth diapers instead of disposables for the ease of use, economical benefits, as well it being an environmentally responsible practice. One question we always get is how to eliminate odors from cloth diapers that can sometimes linger even after laundering. Alas, we have a simple solution, straight from the UK…Mio Fresh. Mio Fresh is a biodegradable powder that is free of enzymes, synthetic perfumes, and chlorine bleach and uses the power of oxygen to remove odors and to sanitize your little one’s cloth diapers. All you have to do is add it in addition to your regular diaper detergent (we love Charlie’s soap and Bum Genius diaper detergent, hence why we carry them in our store!) It is also extremely concentrated which means you get more bang for your buck!

Cloth Diapering is Fun!!

Tuesday, November 18th, 2008

I didn’t really think I would be saying this, but it is fun and addicting. Although I’ve only just started and my collection of cloth diapers isn’t too big, It’s fun deciding which one I’m going to put on him each diaper change. This is where the addiction comes in-I want more fun patterns and colors to choose from. Snaps or velcro, blue, green, polka dots, then all of them are made with different fabrics; microfleece, cotton velour-oh so soft on the bum- Swaddlebees and Blueberry just in blueberry2 8899pinksage-300 moonbeamAnother great thing about all the diapers I have is that they are one size, snaps on the outside of the diapers make them small, medium or large. His bum is so cute in them, Bellani just got baby legs in that match the Bumgenius diapers we currently have. Love it!
