When our daughter, Matilda was born in June of 2008 we became very concerned about what we were putting on her little body.  At 9 months, she began to develop eczema and we discovered it was the products we were using in the bath.  We stopped using them and started applying shea butter to her skin every night and the eczema cleared up in no time.

Then news started to break about the concerns of BPA and we started our research again.  We began to switch all of Matilda’s drinking cups, utensils and plates over to BPA free products.

As we were researching products for Matilda, we realized there aren’t too many places where parents can get honest advice about safe and non-toxic baby and toddler products from their peers.  The idea for this website was born and since then we have added hundreds of products that we feel are safe for babies and toddlers.

We have spent many hours researching these products and have found the ones that do not contain parabens, sodium laureth sulfate, phthalates, or BPA.  Many body care products are listed on Cosmetics Database and have a score of “2″ or lower.  If they have not been tested by Cosmetics Database we verify each ingredient to make sure it has a low hazard.  Please visit “The Nasty Stuff” page for more information.

We are constantly adding new products, but know there are many more out there.  Please use the form on the “Contact” page for any product suggestions, ideas, feedback, etc.

We hope you visit often to find products that are safe for your baby and our planet.  We also hope you will contribute to this site by writing reviews for products you have tried.
