Childbirth Educators! Demo kits for Professionals – explain reusable diapers to your clients!

The RDIA has launched an educational Consider Cloth campaign to spread the word about cloth diapering. This is an educational campaign that provides information on:


* why cloth diapers are a good choice, highlighting their benefits and ease of use;

* the different types of diapers available today; and

* resources to learn more about cloth diapering.

RDIA has put together Consider Cloth kits that include an example of each diaper type (AIO, Pocket, Fitted, Flat, Contour, Wool Diaper Cover, PUL Diaper Cover, and Wet Bag, all donated by manufacturers), 500 brochures filled with information on cloth diapering, a Resource (& Where to Buy) List and a reusable RDIA bag. Some contents will vary depending on materials donated.

If you are a doula, midwife, childbirth educator, or lactation educator and you would like a Consider Cloth kit to demonstrate cloth diapers to your clients, submit your details. $15 USD covers shipping to U.S. or Canada. U.S. shipping is underway, and Canadian shipping will begin soon.

If you are a childbirth educator and don't need a whole Cloth Diaper sample kit, we have a less expensive way to help you promote cloth diapering to your clients. Our Cloth Diaper Literature Pack includes 50 full-color brochures and 50 resource lists including coupons and offers from several retailers. This kit is free of charge to all qualified birth educators.

Contact kit@realdiaperindustry.org to request a cloth diaper literature pack. No charge for shipping.

Consider Cloth Kit. Each kit will most likely include:
1. Diaper fastener
2. Cloth wipe
3. Flat cloth diaper
4. Wet bag
5. Fitted cloth diaper
6. Pocket cloth diaper
7. Contour cloth diaper
8. Diaper cover - PUL

500 kits are available to qualified childbirth educators on a first come, first served basis.

Kits may also include a wool diaper cover. Final contents of the kits depend on generous donations made by RDIA manufacturers.

Donors. RDIA member manufacturers donated all of the diapers and diapering accessories for the cloth diaper demo kits. Huge thanks to our generous donors!

Sponsors. Sponsoring RDIA members made the whole project possible, funding the printing of brochures, resource sheets, boxes, and bags, which enabled us to keep the diaper demo kits free to educators.
