Preparing to bring a whole new human into the world is understandably an overwhelming thing to do. For such cute and tiny people, they sure do seem to need a lot of stuff. That’s where these eco-friendly and organic baby products come in.

These items will help you navigate your baby registry in a much more planet-friendly way. You’ll find a sustainable version of just about everything you need to welcome your baby into the world, from eco-friendly diapers to convertible cribs. You’ll also find products with multi-purposes, allowing you to live more minimally. Here are our top picks.

Eco-Friendly Products for Your Sustainable Baby Registry

1. Sustainable Diapers

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), around 3.3 million tons of disposable diapers were sent to the landfill in 2018. Reusable cloth diapers, on the other hand, can be just as effective and comfortable for your baby. Because you can use them over and over again (just run them through the wash!), they drastically cut down on the waste you’re producing.

If you’re still iffy about using cloth diapers, no worries: There are disposable options that are biodegradable and made with sustainably-sourced materials. Aka much better for the planet than typical options you’ll find on store shelves.

2. Nursery Furniture

Preparing a cozy nursery for your little one includes finding the right furniture to make them feel at home. By being a more conscious consumer and choosing to invest in eco-friendly furniture instead of fast furniture, you’re also choosing to better the planet.

While prices may be higher on some of these items, you get your money’s worth. There are plenty of pieces that are made to transition your child from infancy to toddlerhood with classic looks that will stand the test of time.

3. Car Seats

When you’re showing your baby off at the grandparents’ house, restaurants, and beyond, you want something safe and comfortable to get your kiddo from point A to point B.

Finding eco-friendly car seats isn’t an easy feat, but there are some sustainably-made options that have the planet and your little one in mind.

4. Self-Care

Both the environment and your baby can always use some TLC. Babies have especially sensitive skin, so they need the best of the best when it comes to what’s used on their bodies.

Eco-friendly self-care products often use organic, sustainably-sourced materials that are gentle and nourishing.

5. Sustainable Clothing

Though your baby may grow out of their clothing pretty quickly, opting for slow fashion options still pays off in the long run. Both your kiddo and Mother Earth will thank you for choosing soft, eco-friendly, and organic baby products that won’t cause them discomfort.

These sustainably-made baby registry options are made with materials that will last forever, so your baby can stay fashionable and sustainable for as long as they fit. They also make great hand-me-downs.

6. Eco-Friendly Toys

Babies may not know much (yet!), but they still want to have a good time. By choosing eco-friendly toys, your kiddo can play safely and sustainably.

Made with durable materials like sustainably-sourced wood, eco-friendly toys promote learning and discovery while producing a smaller carbon footprint than their plastic counterparts.

7. Organic Food and Feeding Accessories

One of the most important things to take into consideration is what you feed your baby. Organic infant formula helps minimize your infant’s exposure to pesticide residues and chemicals, all while nourishing them and supporting their rapid growth.

And eco-friendly feeding accessories—such as bibs and burp cloths—make for a more sustainable feeding experience.
