5 Eco-Friendly Baby Products That Parents Love

As parents, we’re always looking for ways to make the best choices for our little ones - from what they eat to the products they use. But with so many options out there, it can be tough to know what’s truly eco-friendly and, let's be honest, what’s just good marketing. 

That’s why we’ve rounded up 5 eco-friendly baby products that not only help the planet but are also safer for our babies (and not to mention easier for parents!).

These items are practical, safe, and, of course, loved by parents everywhere.

5 of the best eco-friendly baby products include:

1. Baby Bamboo Toothbrush

One of the most simple swaps you can make when looking for eco-friendly baby products is a bamboo toothbrush.  

A baby (or child) bamboo toothbrush is a great eco-friendly product because it’s such a simple swap that makes a big difference. Most regular toothbrushes are made of plastic, and they end up sitting in landfills (or worse, oceans) for hundreds of years. 

Bamboo, on the other hand, is biodegradable and naturally sustainable - it grows super fast without the need for pesticides or a ton of water.

Plus, for little ones, you're setting the tone early. Teaching them to care for their bodies and the planet at the same time? That’s a parenting win. 

Baby Bamboo Toothbrush - Single - Mint Green

These super gentle baby toothbrushes are a great way to your little one’s eco journey early, made from sustainably-grown, FSC® certified bamboo. 

They’re BPA-free, 100% biodegradable, and totally vegan - perfect for tiny teeth and a cleaner planet. 

Even the packaging is recyclable and plastic-free, so you're making an earth-friendly choice from top to bottom. 

Each pack includes four toothbrushes, making it easy to stay stocked up the green way.

2. Reusable Bamboo/Cloth Nappies

Next up is nappies - something every parent uses a lot of. 

Traditional disposable nappies might be convenient, but they also take hundreds of years to break down in landfill, and the average baby goes through thousands of them. If you think about it like that, that’s a massive amount of waste for such tiny humans.

This is why we absolutely love reusable bamboo or cloth nappies. Not only do they cut down on landfill waste, but they’re also made from breathable, gentle materials like bamboo, which is naturally antibacterial, super absorbent, and kind to delicate baby skin. 

They're also free from the harsh chemicals often found in disposables, which means fewer rashes and happier bums.

While they do come with a little extra laundry, many parents find a routine pretty quickly. Plus, they save money in the long-run.

Cheeky Reusable Cloth Nappies

These bamboo cloth nappies from Cheeky Wipes are made from a soft blend of 80% bamboo and 20% pico cotton terry, a favorite among eco-conscious parents. 

They're designed to bepoo-nami proof (yes, really!), with separate boosters that let you build absorbency without the bulk. That means they’re not only super absorbent but also quick-drying, which is a huge win when you’re doing regular laundry. 

3. Natural Rubber Teether

Another eco-friendly alternative that’s much safer for the planet (and your baby) are natural rubber teethers.

They’re made from sustainably tapped rubber trees, so unlike plastic options, they’re totally biodegradable and eco-friendly. What we love most is that they’re free from all the nasties like BPA, phthalates, and PVC, which gives you peace of mind when your baby is chewing on them (which is practically all the time). 

They're soft, flexible, and super gentle on sore gums - perfect for teething days when nothing else seems to help. It’s a small swap, but a meaningful one.

Eloise the Natural Rubber Teether Elephant

Made from 100% natural rubber sourced from the Hevea tree, Eloise the elephant is hand-painted with natural food-grade dyes, making her not only safe but also a beautifully crafted teething toy. 

The soft, soothing rubber features different textures that are perfect for massaging sore gums. Plus, her ergonomic design is easy for tiny hands to grab. And if you’re worried about losing her, her ear is perfect for attaching a teether strap!

She’s completely non-toxic, so you can feel good about your little one chewing away.

4. Glass Baby Bottles

Making the switch from plastic to glass bottles for your baby is a fantastic way to give back to the environment.

Firstly, unlike plastic bottles, which can degrade over time and release unwanted chemicals, glass bottles are durable and long-lasting. They're also reusable, so you’re reducing single-use plastic waste. Glass bottles can be used again and again, and when they eventually need to be replaced, they’re fully recyclable, making them a much more sustainable choice. 

They're made from a natural, non-toxic material, meaning there's no risk of harmful chemicals like BPA, phthalates, or PVC leaching into your baby's milk.

5. Bamboo Weaning Bowl

Introducing your little one to solid foods, or weaning, usually happens around 6 months old, alongside their usual breast milk or formula. 

A bamboo weaning bowl is a fantastic eco-friendly choice for your baby because it’s made from a natural, renewable resource - bamboo!

Bamboo grows incredibly fast and doesn’t require pesticides or a lot of water, which makes it a much more sustainable option compared to plastic. Plus, it’s naturally biodegradable, so if you ever need to replace it, it won’t sit in a landfill for centuries like plastic can.

Bamboo bowls are also safe for your little one - they’re typically free from harmful chemicals like BPA, phthalates, and PVC, which is especially important when it comes to products your baby will be eating from.
