When you have a baby, usually your concern for the environment only increases. There is a want to help create the best world as humanely possible for your little ones to grow up and thrive in.
But with all our attention focused on caring for our families, there’s usually little extra time to research the safest ingredients, brands and products. Metro Baby makes it simple with their high-quality range of toys, prams, cots, baby bottles and play mats found all in one convenient location.
What are the benefits of eco-friendly baby products?
1. Safe for babies: in the early few months, babies are still developing, and their skin is very sensitive. It’s even reported that an infant’s skin is 40-60% thinner than an adult’s. So decreasing your baby’s exposure to toxic chemicals is highly beneficial, especially for kids that suffer from skin irritations or allergies.
2. Durable & long-lasting: the slightly pricier eco-friendly products are made with special care and attention. As a result, they’re usually much more durable than products made from cheap, synthetic ingredients.
3. Gentler on the planet: most green baby products are biodegradable, not tested on animals and free of nasty chemicals. Due to these factors, there’s a much gentler footprint on the environment.
