Could Your Family Do More To Help The Environment?

Cloth diapers are good for the skin and best for the environment!

Despite taking some major steps towards a greener, more carbon-neutral environment, the human population still has a way to go before reaching its sustainability goals. It’s much easier to change outdated lifestyle habits when you do it as a team, which is why it’s so important for families to work together when it comes to helping the environment.

Reducing Landfill Waste

In 2022, as much as 85% of textiles end up in landfills. A clothes swap with other families can help to reduce that percentage. Kids grow up so quickly and often outgrow their clothes after just a few wears. Hosting a community clothes exchange (all washed and cleaned of course) can not only help diminish the negative environmental impact of wasted textiles but can also save you and your community some money.

Composting is another fun, immersive, and highly effective way to reduce food waste. Get the kids involved in a home garden composting project, and either palm off the result to local gardeners or use it in your backyard for a family food-growing project.

Switching From Disposable To Reusable Home Supplies

It’s hard to escape the grip that disposable goods have on society. However, there are ways to work around it. One of them is switching to reusable goods where.

Cloth diapers, for example, are a very effective and sustainable alternative to disposable ones. These sustainable fabric diapers can be bought in packs of 10-25, and are softer on sensitive skin than their plastic counterparts.

But if you don’t have any young children in need of potty training, there are other ways you can help. Toothbrushes, shopping bags, aluminum cans, and tires are some of the most commonly found objects in landfills, and yet they all have eco-friendly, sustainable alternatives.

Drive Less, Walk And Cycle More

The accumulation of greenhouse gasses is one of the biggest threats currently facing the planet. If you want your family to do more for the environment, this is one major way to make an impact. Opting to use your car less in favor of walking, cycling (or even skateboarding) can significantly reduce your family’s carbon footprint – and promote physical health at the same time.

These adjustments may require some patience, but you can take comfort in knowing how your actions are positively affecting the planet. Plus, your kids will be raised to understand the importance of sustainable living. It’s a win-win!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Till Next Post!

Using cloth diapers in the Philippines – our continuing journey

happypinaymommy — Fri, 28 Dec 2018 12:30:46 +0000

Using cloth diapers in the Philippines has proven to be very beneficial to our babies, our budget and the environment.

First time to not write for a very long time. Forgive me my dear friends because life has been happily busy in the homefront, with the mister and the kids, and some of my frelance writing commitments. I have a lengthy list of articles for drafting, I eveb have drafts sitting for uploads and I am sorry I was not able to find time.

Anyway, it is no excuse and this 2019 ill endeavor to write more, learn more recipes and parenting hacks to share with you and plan more meals and create meal lists you and I can share.

Anyway, as you know one of my advocacies is cloth diapering, and I will continue to spread the word for as long as this blog exists. As you know, using cloth diapers in the Philippines has proven to be very beneficial to our babies, our budget and the environment.

Loving Cloth Diapers in the Philippines

Another year of cloth diapering is about to end, thanking cloth diapers for a lot of year end savings for my little familia. Diaper expenses could have been huge when you have two babies under two years old but thanks to hybrid fitteds, pockets, and AIOs and fitteds we survived with less expense and less trash! Add to that the savings of zero UTI bouts and less incidence of diaper rash then really it is a great ongoing journey.

I wasnt able to cloth diaper my eldest and she had three bouts of UTI before she turned two. My two younger kids never had it (knock on wood!) And their diaper rash occurrences are very minimal. All these despite my panganay’s disposable diapers not being cheap and we changed it every 3 hrs just like cloth.
.
For my younger two I just invested on about 65 – 70 cloth diapers which I accumulated over time since my middle child was born and about 70 pieces of cloth wipes so we wouldnt have to use disposable baby wipes. The system worked. We now are able to sell our newborn cloth diaper stash because hopefully little guy will be our last baby.

Is it difficult to cloth diaper in the Philippines?

If you ask me if it is hard to cloth diaper, yes it has a learning curve but once you get the hang of it it will be easy! I am a yaya-less mom of three young children, I freelance write on the side and I am still able to manage to cloth diaper my two younger kids. All you need is a good wash routine!

If you need more info on cloth diapering feel free to visit my blog’s cloth diapering section — happypinaymommy.com or follow our Pinterest cloth diapering board. We have info on how to start, where to buy and what you need to know — wash routine, detergents to use, drying during rainy days etc. You can DM me for questions too.

Cloth diapers for toddlers in the Philippines

happypinaymommy — Sun, 04 Feb 2018 18:11:51 +0000

Cloth Diapers for Toddlers in the Philippines

Cloth diapers for toddlers is something I know I have to deal with soon, as my little toddler is getting chunkier, and bigger day by day. Don’t grow up too fast, I whispered to myself as I fasten my middle child’s new cloth diaper. You see, my once vey little Shobz is now in biggie size (cloth diapers for toddlers) already, as she has outgrown her OSFM Pockets. Some of her HFs and fitteds still fit, but absorbency wise, the biggies/XL dipes do the job better.

Cloth Diapers for Toddlers

I must admit, she is now a full grown toddler. She now gets random dirt in her nails because of kalikutan! Hay time flies by soooo fast. Gone were the days I would have to wash her diapers every three days. She now just wears her CDs during naptime, when we are outside the home, and at night when sleeping. The CDs though are all super sulit because the regular sized ones are now being used by the little guy– pinks, hearts, flowers and sweet stuff prints included!

Truly, cloth diapering has been a blessing to our family. It helped us save a lot (two in cloth, imagine how much we would spend for diapers?), no rashes and UTI bouts so far for Shobz and Shots (compared to Achiebelles who had UTI three times until toddlerhood). We also do not have to dump trash every so often because we do not have much to throw (a big help for a yaya-less mom like me).

Captain Barbel is also in to the whole cloth diapering thing as he helps too with the prewashing, and loading in the wash! Stuffing meantime is a family activity with the kids (especially Achie who has been so helpful). We stuff and fold while we watch cooking shows on TV.

If you are interested in cloth diapering your soon to be child, or you are considering to switch to cloth but don’t know where to start,I have in the website a section filled with local cloth diapering information (click here) . From different systems, inserts, accessories and where to buy them (Here’s where you can buy biggies). Laundry routine, detergents to use, and even where to get stuff for DIY cloth diapers. We also have info on cloth wipes and where to buy materials for it should you wish to do a DIY. For those living in apartments, condos, flats and tiny homes, we have an article on dealing with cloth diapering in small spaces. Ill soon write about having two in cloth, that I promise because some may get too overwhelmed with the thought — BUT it can be done! We do not have house help, I tandem feed and we have two in cloth, if I can do it, you can do it too! Sayang ang savings!

I also have a feature on local cloth diaper WAHMS that are just so talented. I invite you to give cloth diapering a try, and soon you’ll be typing in *mine* as fast as you can!

Options for Presko Time Breathable Cloth Diapers

happypinaymommy — Wed, 01 Jun 2016 07:46:30 +0000

Wondering about Presko Time Breathable Cloth Diapers? (Photo Credits)

For moms who are new at cloth diapering, the term “presko time” may be quite confusing as one of the main objectives behind cloth diapering is to provide a “presko” or breathable alternative to Disposable Diapers.

But for cloth diapering veterans, “presko time” means letting your little one wear a cloth diaper that does not have PUL or TPU which is the component that makes cloth diapers water proof. TPU and PUL are usually used on covers, AIOs, and pockets.

So what are the options for Presko Time Breathable Cloth Diapers in the Philippines?

For moms with older infants and toddlers, presko time can even consist of just wearing underwear, Lampin or flats, lampin or flats plus underwear, stay dry insert or soaker plus underwear, or even just going plain commando, or butt naked.

So why have Presko Time? Well, to allow your baby’s skin to breathe. And while this is not a hard and fast rule of cloth diapering, further on into your cloth diapering career, you will see the need for it. How? When baby suddenly has rashes, ask any experienced cloth mama and she will tell you to go “presko time” several times a day, if not the whole day until the rash disappears, and just continue using your usual stay dry system at bedtime.

Another reason why veteran cloth mamas, or even your baby’s pediatrician will advise you to have “presko time” is when your baby just had a bout of UTI or Urinary Tract Infection. This is because one of the causes of UTI is wearing soaked or soiled diapers for a long period of time. This is also applicable to Disposable Diapers, hence the rule of thumb or SOP is to change diapers (regardless if it is disposable or cloth) every two to three hours except at bedtime, unless of course the diapers are fully soaked already or have been soiled before the two to three hour mark.

Types of presko time breathable cloth diapers:

Flats or Lampin – Are very economical, easy to wash, and easy to dry. Can be used on its own, or with a cover, or even with underwear. (Here is my previous post on where to buy flat cloth diapers)
Prefolds – Are super breathable diapers that have already been prefolded for easier use. Unlike Lampins though these usually come in three sizes. The middle part of the diaper also is thicker to absorb more pee. (Here is my previous post on where to buy Prefolds). Like the lampin, this can be used on its own or topped with an underwear for presko time.
Fitteds – Fitted diapers are no frills, and by far the easiest type of presko time breathable cloth diaper to use. Could be made from hemp, bamboo velour, or any other breathable fabric. (Here is my previous post on where to buy fitted cloth diapers). If you want to use a fitted diaper overnight, you may use some woolies over it, for a presko time breathable cover.
Hybrid Fitted – Hybrid Fitted cloth diapers are usually the most expensive type of cloth diapers since these are handmade, usually by Work-at-Home-Moms. These usually has soakers and boosters that could make it last overnight so that your little one can sleep in breathable softness. The soakers of course are stay-dry so you would not have to worry about that aspect. The combination of the soakers and the fabric type will depend on the preference of the WAHM or could be custom-made according to your preference. (Click here for my series on where to buy or order hybrid fitted cloth diapers)
Wool Covers – Are definitely a great alternative to TPU and PUL covers because these are made of natural materials and can make your fitted cloth diapers last overnight. In the Philippines, these can be ordered or bought from The Baby Lamb Cloth Diapers – click here for my past feature on Baby Lamb and the WAHM behind it. You may also buy Grovia Lamb Woolies from The Eco Baby Boutique.

So there you have it, I hope I was able to help you choose the best Presko Time Cloth Diapers for your little one. If you have time I hope you can drop by my Facebook Page. Please hit the like button while you’re at it too!

The GCDC is an annual worldwide event created by the Real Diaper Association that aims to spread awareness about the benefits of cloth diapering, advocating cloth diapers as an environment-friendly choice for families.

Nina Atienza, founder and president of SPiN, shares that there are more options when it comes to cloth diapering aside from the humble lampin. “The lampin of old is no longer the only option because now there is a wide range of modern cloth diaper systems available at different price points and without the chemicals, which make them gentler on our baby’s skin! CDs also help save money because you can just purchase 24 pieces and reuse even for succeeding children.”

Happypinaymommy.com is an official blogging partner of SPiN-GCDC.

This event is meanwhile done in partnership with Modern Cloth Nappying Pinays (MCNP), Breastfeeding Pinays, Mommy Talk Philippines, and Newlyweds@Work. MCNP will be holding a separate event in San Juan, Metro Manila.

Happypinaymommy.com’s WAHM of the Week #15, Mommy Maria Isabel Allardo Jaranilla of All about Cloth by Zoey

happypinaymommy — Mon, 25 Jan 2016 16:29:30 +0000

The first ever Work-at-Home Mommy of the Week that we will be featuring for this year is a Cloth Diaper WAHM who is known for making customized cloth diaper inserts. She is actually a top of mind WAHM when it comes to custom inserts, such that whenever a new cloth diapering mama would ask for recos on specialized inserts, she will most likely be tagged into the thread as a reco.

Now she is venturing into making customized hybrid fitted cloth diapers as well. The CDs that she sews are now earning rave reviews from her clients. Apart from being a cloth diaper WAHM she also does online selling of products of a networking company.

So when I say let us start the year right, let us start the year right by featuring a very inspiring story.

Happypinaymommy.com’s 15th Work-at-Home Mommy of the Week, Mommy Maria Isabel Allardo Jaranilla of All About Cloth by Zoey.

This is the longest that I have gone without coming out with a WAHM of the Week feature. Obviously, the series is supposed to come out weekly, but with the many happy chaotic events that marked my December, my January had become a month of catching up on all the backlogs that I have – be it here in the blog, or at home. You should really see our laundry room!

Anyway, too much for all the explaining, the extended hiatus on this series, obviously extended my research, informal interview turned life chats with Mommy Isabel. She is a very pleasant person, whom I found to be very deep, inspiring, and bold enough to speak her mind.

Mommy Isabel obviously loves her craft so much, that she finds joy in sewing her products. I am even more surprised because for the busy mom and person that she is, she still finds time to do charity works like donating cloth diapers to an orphanage, and even donating her locks to cancer patients!

Mommy Isabel’s Customized Cloth Diaper

Of course, her first priority is being a mom to little Zoey. I haven’t seen Zoey in person but I have seen a lot of her and heard a lot of her antics as mommy Isabel posts from time to time about their happy moments together. I can say that this little tot is just so lucky to have Mommy Isabel as her mother because as Mommy Isabel said in one of our chats, she is working hard to give all the best to Zoey.

Mommy Isabel chose to work from home to be with little Zoey all the time. And like the WAHMs we have featured last year, Mommy Isabel wanted to see her daughter grow before her own eyes. So, her days may be full because of work errands, personal errands, home chores, and mommy duties, but Mommy Isabel says she is happy where she is and in what she is doing.

Here is an excerpt of my interview with Mommy Isabel:

Happypinaymommy.com: When did you decide to be a WAHM?

Mommy Isabel: My previous company did not allow me to work because I had a very delicate pregnancy. That’s why I decided to resign and stay at home for the rest of my pregnancy. We had five trips to the Emergency Room due to force labor. During those times I promised my baby to have one full year to personally take care of her. But I was not able to keep that promise. (After a year of staying home with Zoey) I told myself one more year. Hahaha… Never ending reasons and unfailing love keeps me working from home while taking care of her. I am a single mom.

====================================================================

==================================================================

HPM: What made you decide to be a WAHM?

Mommy Isabel: The main reason why I decided to be a WAHM is the fact that I can’t feel in my heart that there will be someone who will take better care of my kid than me. I can’t trust other people to raise my kid. Plus I want to see her grow with my very eyes.

HPM: What is the greatest challenge you have faced in relation to being a WAHM?

Mommy Isabel: Being a WAHM is very, very, very tiring but fulfilling. Being a WAHM is like being your own brand of a superwoman. The greatest challenge is the financial aspect but with a lot of discipline and courage… “KAYANG-KAYA NAMAN”. Staying at home, thinking of the bills, taking care of the house, yourself and a toddler is never easy. You need to be a little more mindful of your time. Management is the key of a successful and happy WAHM.

In Mommy Isabel’s own words, here is how her custom cloth diaper projects have evolved.

HPM: What advice can you give to those who may want to become a WAHM?

Mommy Isabel: Make use of your time. Exert effort to be productive. You cannot expect all the good things to come in a golden platter when you wish them to. You have to work. In the world where we live now, everything is made simple and fast. If you want to put up a business with little amount of capital in your hand, then move and take the first step. Try to learn as many information as you can about the business you want to put up. Try it yourself. Experience is your best teacher. The best sales person are the ones who know what they are talking about.

HPM: Who inspires you?

Mommy Isabel’s inspiration to word doubly hard and feel all the goodness that life has to offer is her little toddler, Zoey.

Mommy Isabel: My kid. The burning desire of giving her the best keeps me going.

HPM: Can you tell us how your usual day/week goes?

Mommy Isabel: “My working hours are my kid’s sleeping and napping times. She usually sleeps 10pm until around 9-10am. During this time I am busy cutting my fabrics, washing the dishes, washing her clothes and diapers, cleaning the house, etc. I make sure to finish as much work as I can. Then when she wakes up. I will feed her. Bathe her. Play with her. Then I go to the shop where I am renting an edging machine to sew my inserts.

Before, I let people from the shop sew the inserts. But because I am wise… Hahaha… I took the opportunity to learn how to do it myself with the masters around me. Brilliant isn’t it?

Mommy Isabel’s Six Layer Bamboo Hemp bifold

Then, I do my banking errands with my kid in tow. I write my waybills while she’s playing beside me. I think i’m just too lucky that I have a well-behaved baby who seems to understand the need to do things at a certain time. I always talk to her. Tell her what I need to do. And I know in my heart she understands.”

And like our past WAHM of the WEEK Features we also asked for testimonials on the products of Mommy Isabel.

Mommy Michelle Joy Agtang is one of Mommy Isabel’s highly satisfied clients. She says, “Isabel is a very kind, humble lady. I was in search of an insert for my Fluffy Ds fitted when I met her. She is really nice – from thoroughly answering my PMs, reserving my items and patiently waiting for her payment. Her handcrafted inserts are excellent, the bifolds I got from her are my favorite. The performance is indeed amazing as I combine them with her hemp inserts and prefers to use them at night, where it can last us 12hrs the most. And what I admire more about her is her advocacy to help her fellow mothers find the perfect insert that will fit their needs at an affordable price.”

Mommy Isabel’s Premium Bifold has as much as ten layers when inserted on a nappy: Premium Bifold has
√ 10 Layers when folder and is made of three Layers Bamboo Cotton French Terryy, and two layers of hemp fleece. She has other fabric options for her bifolds too.

Another happy customer is Mommy Majic Navarro-Recta. She first ordered customized inserts from Mommy Isabel “27months at med-heavy wetter ang toddler ko. After three washes ng BCFT ko nakakaya na niya mag overnight without boost ang ganda pa ng fit kasi sakto siya sa nappy ko at hindi din makapal. Andami ko na actually na-order kay sis isabel mga booster, HF soaker and bifolds. At lahat nagwork!”

Here is what Mommy Isabel’s BFCT is made of: Five Layers Bamboo Cotton French Terry; Stand alone day time insert; Thin and light weight; Length: 13 inches; Width: 5 inches; Best fits BG, Quigle Bum, Alva, Baby land etc.

And because she is satisfied with the custom inserts, she decided to try out Mommy Isabel’s handmade Cloth Nappies. “Ang cute ng mga nappy ni sis isabel meron na akong dalawa. First nappy may kaunting run pa pero maganda ang fit sa anak ko nasa smallest setting kame more room to grow maganda din yung AWJ makapal plus galaxy pa ang print nun dream print ko. For the Second nappy wow anlaki ng improvement super linis ng tahi no run! Smallest setting paden kame.”

She continues, “Sobrang creative ni sis isabel sa mga fabric niya magagawa at magagawan niya ng paraan yung mga natitira niyang fabric! Yung soaker maganda din naglalast talaga siya overnight para sa med-heavy wetter na anak ko plus manipis pa kaya maganda gamitin hindi bulky at pwede pa magpacustomized insert sakanya very flexible naman siya sa mga request at mapapansin na made with love talaga. Nakita ko kung pano nag-improve ang mga nappy niya mula sa una hangang sa ngayon at matutuwa ka kasi hindi siya sumusuko na mas pagandahin pa ang mga creations niya plus may magandang puso dahil most nappy na ginawa niya nung una ay PIF madami siyang batang natulungan.”

So there you have it. Hope you have been inspired with the WAHM experience of Mommy Isabel.

Happypinaymommy.com’s WAHM of the Week #14, Mommy Jay Anne Kho-Tacbas of Tahi Kho Cloth Diapers

happypinaymommy — Tue, 15 Dec 2015 08:39:51 +0000

Happypinaymommy.com’s 14^th Work-at-Home-Mommy of the Week started selling when she was in Elementary School. She started sewing custom made cloth diapers this year, and she hosts one of the happiest local cloth diaper mom groups.

Without further ado, let me introduce to you happypinaymommy.com’s 14^th WAHM of the Week, Mommy Jay Anne Kho-Tacbas of Tahi Kho Cloth Diapers.

Happypinaymommy.com’s 14th WAHM of the Week: Mommy Jay Anne of Tahi Kho Cloth Diapers

Like most of the Work-At-Home-Moms that we have featured, Mommy Jay Anne chose to work from home to be able to be with her little boy, Marko 24/7. She admits she wanted to raise her son the way she was raised as a kid, because her own mom stayed home as well.

In the local cloth diapering community, Tahi Kho cloth diapers is starting to gain ground. Ask local HF fans and they will tell you that the Tahi Kho Cloth Diaper group is a fun, lively FB group to hang out in – sort of an online barkadahan for cloth mommies.

Anyway, for those of you who are thinking of becoming a WAHM or if you are considering to put up an online business –

Sharing with you the Excerpts of our Interview with Mommy Jay Anne of Tahi Kho Cloth Diapers:

Happypinaymommy.com: When did you decide to be a WAHM?

Mommy Jay Anne: I’ve always been a seller since I was in grade school (Stickers, anyone? Hehe). Growing up, I knew for a fact that I would like to become just like my mom one day, leaving her job to focus on being a full-time mom. Since I enjoy selling, there! Tahi-Kho started just this 2015, March.

HPM: What made you decide to be one?

Mommy Jay Anne: When my friend and I got addicted to buying cloth diapers, she told me, why not learn how to sew? We could both save money!

==============================================================================================

HPM: What is the greatest challenge you have faced in relation to being a WAHM?

Mommy Jay Anne: I can only sew when Marko is asleep. Time management is the key.

Mommy Jay Anne’s Handmade Cloth Diapers. She explains “these are my favorite nappies! Obviously because the other is specially customized for son, Marko. I love the colorful dots and how vibrant it is! So playful — just like my son! The other one is my halloween nappy. I love how the cobwebs and spiders stand out! It has an inner orange cotton velour too!”

HPM: What advice can you give to those who may want to become a WAHM?

Mommy Jay Anne: Have passion in whatever you do. Take risks; it is hard at first, but everything else will follow. Make your family your first priority; after all, they are the main reason why you’re doing it.

The baby that inspired Tahi Kho Cloth Diapers — Little Marko. Here he is playing with one of his mom’s bestselling products, the Cuddle Cubes. Mommy Jay Anne describes the cuddle cubes as “a colorful soft cube toy with different textures and ribbons on each side, which will encourage your child to explore and discover things.”

HPM: Who inspires you?

Mommy Jay Anne: My family. Being with Marko 24/7 is more than enough to make me do anything for him. My parents. They make me want to raise my own family just like they did. My customers. They’ve become more than just clients- they’ve become friends whom I can talk to any time of the day.

HPM: How does your husband/partner support you?

Mommy Jay-Anne’s Family. Take a look at their his and hers sneakers! Sweet and cute at the same time

Mommy Jay Anne: He’s very supportive. When I told him I wanted to sew HFs and baby stuff, he gave me a sewing machine for my birthday!!! How sweet is that?!

HPM: Can you tell us how your usual day/week goes?

Mommy Jay Anne: I am also a freelance Architect; I visit my project once a week. I work on my drawings when Marko is sleeping or is busy with his grandparents and aunties. But my usual day goes like this: Marko wakes up at around 5-6am, so I get to start my day early. I can sew when he is asleep during the afternoon, which is my only time to do stuff like that. During the evening, while the little one is fast asleep, I watch movies/television with my husband.

Mommy Jay-Anne says, as a WAHM you should always remember that your family is your priority, and that they are your reason why you chose the path of Working from Home.

Like our past WAHM Features we also sought for testimonials on Mommy Jay Anne’s products.

Mommy Jasmer Omaria is one of Tahi Kho’s fans. “One of my favorite brand ng HFs na gawa ng ating local WAHMs ay ang Tahi-Kho. Aside sa nappy na talagang masasabi mong “handmade with LOVE”, ganda pa ng performance nito. With default soaker, tumatagal ng 3-4hours na walang leak ang nappy sa aking LO. I even use it as our overnight nappy pag ginagamitan ko ng zorb. Perfect fit for lo. No garter marks kahit overnight ko gamitin.”

Taken during a recent Mini EB of members of the fun and lively Tahi Kho Cloth Diaper FB Group. “It is a fun group where cloth diapering moms get to interact and chat,” describes Mommy Jay Anne

Mommy Jasmer of course mentioned about the fun FB group Tahi Kho Cloth Diapers is also famous for. “Daming games, daming prizes, daming kaganapan, daming surprise!!! Ito ang group na araw araw at mayat maya may GAMES! Nagkakapuyatan na nga kakaGAMES. Hahahah! At dahil sa games and giveaways, nanalo ako ng burp pads, bibs and soft toy. At lahat ng yun, maganda talaga ang pagkakagawa..at cliche na kung sasabihin kong “handmade with love” din ang mga yun kasi totoo naman talaga.” She added “Thank you so much mommy J for being generous, accomodating, friendly and loving sa lahat ng members and customers ng Tahi-Kho. I know na talagang you will.be blessed kasi you are.one of a kind person with a.very very good heart pati din kay mommy Zel. Marami kayong napasaya na mga mommies I’m sure. Super excited ako sa iba pang games, surprises at syempre sa mga HFs!”

Another satisfied Tahi Kho client is Mommy Jenny Baniaga-Soriano. “I support WAHMS and my goal is to have at least one HF or fitted from each of them. Tahi Kho actually yung unang brand na napagtanungan ko about HF… Sobrang bait ni Sis JayAnne at sobrang accomodating. Yung unang hf ko from her ay napanalunan ko sa raffle niya. I can say na ang ganda ng gawa ni Jay Anne. Ang linis ng pagkaka stitch..ang ganda ng quality.. Makikita talaga na it is made with love, time and effort.”

Mommy Jen’s eight-month old Little Boy Matt Stephen wearing a Tahi Kho Hybrid Fitted Cloth Diaper.“I will definitely buy another one again or more sa stocking niya.. Ganda pa ng mga tela nya,” Mommy Jen says.

Mommy Glizelle is also very happy about Tahi Kho Cloth Diapers. In fact she is one of the reasons why the Tahi Kho Cloth Diaper group is a fun group to begin with. She is the group Admin.

Mommy Zel’s little girls wearing Tahi Kho Cloth Diapers

“(Her products are) budget friendly; my eldest before can use it for overnight use. I had the same experience when I used it on my youngest. We didn’t need to add an additional insert/zorb/booster because the soaker/insert can last us overnight. It has a perfect fit as well and the prints are so pretty! You’ll also feel the mother’s touch and love on Tahi Kho HFs.” She concludes.

Another happy Tahi Kho client is one of the WAHM’s we recently featured — Mommy Grace Rayos-Abando of Imprints. She says “Mommy JayAnne is one of the nicest and sincerest WAHMs I know. While most sewing moms were making cloth diapers, she also make other baby stuff like neck pillows and these cute Cube Plushies (I bought three.) The plushies were very well crafted – the choice of prints are appropriate for toddlers as they were eye-catching, the fabrics have different textures that helped in enhancing the sense of touch, the color and sizes of the taggies also had variety for enhancing the sense of sight, and the execution of sewing was just perfect.”

Mommy Grace’s Little Boys playing with Tahi Kho’s Cuddle Cubes “My kids loved them that they already played with them the moment I received and opened the parcel,” she says.

Mommy Grace actually has another upcoming order from Mommy Jay-Anne. “Now she offers the catch-all bibs that’s perfect for preventing dirty clothes and messy floor during baby’s meal time, and I can’t wait to have my order delivered and use them at once. Definitely loved the products and the mom who’s behind it,” she says.

So there you have it. Hope you were able to learn more about Mommy Jay Anne, and at the same time, you have been somehow inspired to take the leap and try the WAHM life. As I have always said, I started this series to encourage 8-5 moms who want to stay home or want to have a breather from the daily grind, to give Working From Home a try and that becoming a WAHM is feasible, and other moms are making it work with flying colors.

Happypinaymommy.com’s 13th WAHM of the Week: Mommy Jeanette Un of Earth Baby Cloth Diapers

happypinaymommy — Thu, 10 Dec 2015 14:39:48 +0000

Mommy Jeanette Un of Earth Baby Cloth Diapers

Our 13^th Work-at-Home Mommy of the Week is Mommy Jeanette Un of Earth Baby Cloth Diapers. She is based in Cagayan de Oro City and she owns Earth Baby Cloth Diapers – Philippine Cloth Diaper brand popular for being a reliable and earth-friendly nappying solution for babies and toddlers alike.

Mommy Jeanette said, becoming a Work-at-Home Mom is a conscious effort she took as she intends to be always there for her kids during their formative years. She recently gave birth, and she is now mom to three adorable kids.

Get inspired, as I share with you some excerpts of our interview with the mommy behind Earth Baby Cloth Diapers:

Happypinaymommy.com: When did you decide to be a WAHM?

Mommy Jeanette: When my first baby came out in 2009, I decided to be a WAHM. We started Earth Baby Modern Cloth Diapers after my second baby was born in 2012. It was borne out of a common advocacy between my mom friend and I to make cloth diapers available for more moms, and that yes, it’s worth the “inconvenience of additional laundry” and that choosing cloth is going to be one of decisions you’ll be glad you made.

(Post continued below)
====================================================================

You may also want to read:

====================================================================

HPM: What made you decide to be one?

Mommy Jeanette: I wanted to be a hands-on mom and really be there for the formative years of the kids. I can always decide to work full time later on should I desire to, but they will not always be kids, and I wanted to make sure I am there when they need me the most.

HPM: What is the greatest challenge you have faced in relation to being a WAHM?

Mommy Jeanette: I guess the greatest challenge I faced in relation to being a WAHM is getting peace and quiet to get some work done, hehe.. It’s especially hard when the kids are older babies or toddlers. I have mastered the art of multitasking (breastfeeding while working on the pc), speedy bathing, and just working amidst the chaos. I try to keep in mind that “children are not a distraction from more important work, they are the most important work.”

The Moms and Kids behind Earth Baby Cloth Diapers

HPM: What advice can you give to those who may want to become a WAHM?

Mommy Jeanette: Find a work that you truly love and believe in. During those times when stress piles up, looking back to why you decided to be a WAHM in the first place will spur you to keep on going. Working at home is essentially juggling taking care of work and kids. If you can, try involving kids in your work so you can get hit two birds with one stone.

From their website: Earth Baby Modern Cloth Diapers – Solutions for a healthier baby, happier mom, and a cleaner Earth.

HPM: Who inspires you?

Mommy Jeanette: I am inspired by the moms who support our endeavor, when they share how our product has helped them meet their baby’s needs, when our service has satisfied them, it ignites the flame of passion in us to continue what we do.

HPM: How does your husband/partner support you?

Mommy Jeanette: My husband supports me by helping me take care of the kids. Sometimes he would take them out with him so I can have some “me time”. He also believes in the same advocacy, and is actually an excellent salesperson to other dads. Many a dad have come to choose cloth diapers because of his own testimony!

Earth Baby’s Infograph designed to guide mommies on how to choose the best cloth nappy for their kids

HPM: Tell us more about Earth Baby Cloth Diapers and why are you proud of your brand?

Mommy Jeanette: Each Earth Baby Cloth Diaper we release is a product of research and development, products that are mom-tested and mom-approved. We wanted mothers to be able to try our products and realize that cloth diapering really works! Our flagship product is our Pocket Diaper PLUS which is a heavy-duty pocket diaper for heavy wetters and night diapering. One of the greatest challenges of cloth diapering is finding an effective night diaper set up. We did the hard work ourselves in figuring out a solution that works so mothers won’t have to. It is truly unlike other pocket diapers in the market. Its signature double leg gussets, wide openings, roomy pocket, and very absorbent inserts all work together to give you a night diapering solution that ensures good nights and dry mornings.

Mommy Jeanette’s Earth Baby Products

And like our past WAHM of the Week Features, we also asked around about Earth Baby Cloth Diapers.

Mommy Ams Macaraeg was happy to tell us about her experience with Earth Baby Cloth Diapers.

“My first ever cloth diaper was from Earth Baby. Back then, I was searching for diapers with solid colors only as I didn’t want complicated designs. I discovered the brand through facebook and wanted to patronize local brands that’s why I thought I give it a try.”

Photo shows Mommy Ams’ Eldest Daughter Matilda wearing an Earth Baby Cloth Diaper

She continues “Jeanette was very accommodating as I asked so many questions. We had a lot of email exchanges and she gave me tips and pieces of advice on how to take care of our diapers. My first transaction with her was for two diapers only as I wanted to test the difference between snaps and velcro. As I tested both, I ended up liking more the snap version and ordered several more the next time. I picked up my orders personally from her when I had the chance to visit CDO. She was really pleasant even in person and she became a friend since then.”

For her second baby, Mileina, Mommy Ams continued to patronize Earth Baby Cloth Diapers. “Now with my newborn, I wanted a different system to try. I am now using prefolds and Earth Baby covers because a newborn poops a lot at this stage.”

Mommy Ams stressed “In general, I love Earth Baby diapers as the workmanship is truly great. Ours lasted about two years until my eldest was potty trained. We even got to sell them at a very good price because it still looked new. But more than the diaper itself, it was the friendship Jeanette and I built that I treasure more. She indeed deserve the success of her brand.”

So there you have it. Hope you have been inspired with how Mommy Jeanette manages her flourishing business and being with her kids 24/7.

Happypinaymommy.com’s WAHM of the Week #11: Mommy Tina de Guzman

happypinaymommy — Wed, 25 Nov 2015 15:40:49 +0000

After reviewing my interview with our 11th Work-at-Home Mommy of the week, I kept on thinking how and where she gets all the energy to do all the things that she does. Imagine — she holds a full time job as a lawyer, she has a booming home-based business, and of course she is a wife, and a mother. I literally asked her what are the vitamin supplements she takes, if any, so i could try those out and get much needed energy.

Before i get carried away, i would like to first introduce to you:

happypinaymommy.com’s work-at-home-mom of the week # 11, Mommy Tina de Guzman of Fluffy Pwets Cloth Diapers:

Mommy Tina de Guzman started into the cloth diapering business following the birth of his son. Like any other cloth diapering mama, she wanted the best, the most “presko” (breathable) option for her baby’s bum. But the cloth diapers that provide that level of breathability are only being made in the United States at that time, and buying one would mean shelling out money for dollar-priced nappies and paying for international shipping cost.

Mommy Tina certainly knows that not all Pinay cloth diapering mamas can afford such, and that there is a possibility that some of those who can afford might think it is kind of impractical to get one for the cost. But since Mommy Tina believes in the type of product that she lets her child use, she wants Filipino moms to give Hybrid Fitted Cloth Diapers a try. She then decided to come up with her own line of handmade cloth diapers in 2013 and they are now producing baby and mommy cloth products that are beyond their HF line.

If you are aspiring to put up your own home based business, read on as you will surely learn a lot from our interview with Mommy Tina.

Here is an excerpt of our interview with her:

Happypinaymommy: When did you decide to be a WAHM?

Mommy Tina: Actually, I’m sort of a hybrid myself. I have a home-based business and I still work a full-time day job as a lawyer. While still pregnant, my husband and I were already considering using cloth diapers for our son. We started with the usual option, which are pocket diapers; but I wasn’t satisfied. I researched and tried other cloth diaper systems, and stumbled upon fitteds, a design that doesn’t use laminated cloth. By August 2013, my husband and I already started on our little project. We produced our first protoypes sometime in November 2013. We have not stopped production since.

HPM: What made you decide to be a WAHM?

Mommy Tina: We took a huge risk in deciding to start Fluffy Pwets cloth diapers. At the time, hybrid fitted diapers were unknown to cloth diaper users in the Philippines. Cost of importing materials are high, and if people don’t support the product, all the work would not be worth it. However, we were met with a very warm welcome from the cloth diapering online community, and most of the new friends I made from November 2013 remain close friends and supporters of Fluffy Pwets! The main reason we decided to start Fluffy Pwets are we want to use the most breathable option for our baby, and we wanted to provide Filipino moms a more affordable option as opposed to buying imported diapers. A big bonus for us is that we were able to provide livelihood to three local, skilled seamstresses!

HPM: What is the greatest challenge you have faced in relation to being a WAHM?

Mommy Tina: First, starting out when no one has heard of your product before, trying to get the word out and presenting hybrid fitted diapers as a better option. Second, finding the time to do everything. When we started, I was personally cutting each and every diaper. The first few months, I would cut fabric up to 5 am, then take a bath and prepare to go to the office. Literally “walang tulugan”. My husband had his hand injured from putting all the snaps. Up to now, we are still very hands on, such that when we meet moms in bazaars or other mommy events and they tell us their names, we really know them! Third, copying is too common. A lot of our former clients started making similar products.

HPM: What advice can you give to those who may want to become a WAHM?

Mommy Tina: Pray. Keep the faith. God’s guidance will lead you to success. Be original. Find or develop a product/service that you are really passionate about, and study it. Respect fellow mompreneurs and they will help you out. Employ experts. There are many aspects in running a business, and getting people on your team who are the best at what they do are worthwhile investments. For example, I am a lawyer, not a seamstress, but our team is composed of TESDA-trained seamstresses who have more than 15 years of experience in the textile industry. Husband and I still make all creative decisions, but we are happy to say that our team has now evolved into one well-oiled machine!

HPM: Who inspires you?

Family Time: Mommy Tina and Her Family.

Mommy Tina: My family. Our son was the reason we got into this business in the first place. My husband is as hands on as he can be. Our parents and siblings support us all the way. Our clients. Since we started and remain an online business, we get to interact with our clients. We share their happiness when they score rare prints or complete their stash. We’ve made friends way beyond our usual circle.

HPM: How does your husband/partner support you?

Mommy Tina: My husband was our very first master snapper. Up to now he is our official photographer for products and models. He does a lot of back-end support work, without which our operations would not work as smoothly.

HPM: Tell us more about Fluffy Pwets Cloth Diapers, and what makes you proud of your cloth products?

Mommy Tina: We make hybrid fitted cloth diapers (with various customization options), and matching shirts, tops, dresses, and accessories. We make swim clothing also – rashguards and trainers. We are especially proud of our customer service. We are the only local diaper maker who have 1 year warranty on our products. We also have FP Rewards. Each diaper purchased from us earn 1 FP Heart. Collect 12 FP Hearts and get ONE FP diaper free!

Fluffy Pwets Cloth Diapers Ongoing Christmas Promo. Here is a link to their promos.

And just like our usual WAHM of the WEEK Features, we also asked for testimonials on Fluffy Pwets Cloth Diapers.

Mommy Al Mondz shared this review with Mommy Tina: “Since hybrid fitteds are not waterproof and they’re suggested to be paired with a cover if you intend to use them for longer hours, I was curious how long they can survive before they get wet. We use Fluffy Pwets 5hours max. And so, we decided to use it overnight to see how long it can last. Bawat gising ni Singkit to breastfeed, I’ve been touching his bum to see if it’s already soaked. Surprisingly, 8pm-8am ay hindi man lang basa ang outer layer ng FP! I was really impressed, Tina.”

Another avid client is Mommy Roselene Redondo. “If one is produced out of love and passion, then expect it to be something out of ordinary. This is why FP stands out on its own. FP was my Tisoy’s first hybrid fitted (HF) diaper. I thought I could not afford one for him. Then I met Tina, one of the most generous, genuine “virtual momma” I’ve known in the cloth diapering circle that I was once in. She happily shared, how she loves it when her own son wears HFs, and yes, mahahawa ka talaga sa pagka in-“love”. More when she shared with me that she is going to start making HFs here in our country. I was so excited for her, because I knew she’ll be successful in her plans; and for the mommas and babies of course because they can experience HFs, in a much friendly price and just within their reach. No need to stalk and spend tons for the shipping costs if it’ll be purchased internationally.”

Mommy Roselene added “I’ve seen how FP has started and from then on, I knew in my heart that they will go a long way. We may have a very few pieces from FP but I made sure that Tisoy’s first and last HF diaper (before he was fully potty trained) were Fluffy Pwets. FP will always be a part of our cloth diapering journey. I still kept the 1st HF (from the first batch that they made) that I bought from Tina, wala pang label yung HF na yun. We will forever treasure it and the friendship I made with the momma behind all of these. Thank you for spreading the HF love and keep it up, Fluffy Pwets!”

Where to Buy Cloth Diaper Storage in the Philippines

happypinaymommy — Tue, 10 Nov 2015 17:54:06 +0000

Are you looking for shops where you can Buy Cloth Diaper Storage in the Philippines? Read on. (Photo Credits)

It is a problem, most cloth diaper addicts have. Space is not enough for the stash. Anyway, being the enabler that I am i thought of coming up with this post.

For those of you who may not be able to install right away a new cabinet for your baby’s cloth diapers the next best thing that you could do is to find a good storage solution for your baby’s cloth diapers.

There are many options available both in online and in physical stores that will suit your budget.

Here are stores where you can buy cloth diaper storage in the Philippines:

Howard’s Storage – I will never get tired of going to this store. I just super love all the storage solutions that are being sold here J From wicker baskets, fabric/cloth types, cabinet-like, and even those made of hard plastic. They have branches in Greenbelt and in Century City Mall in Makati. I swear you can browse this shop for hours!
Muji – Another great storage solution store! How can you not love the offerings here? You may buy a diaper bag organizer here too! They have a branch in Greenbelt 3 if I am not mistaken across fully booked.

(Post Continued Below)

—————————————————————————————

————————————————————————————————————————-

3. Lazada – Has some storage solutions that can be used for cloth diapers like this cabinet which can be assembled – buy it here.

4. SM Home – If you are looking for more affordable storage solutions then you may want to check out bigger SM Stores like the Makati and Megamall branches (and most likely MOA — sorry i have only been there for like three times so not so familiar). In Makati they have hard plastic, affordable wooden cabinets, hard plastic cabinets, cloth/fabric type, and open shelf-style cabinets which are also perfect for bedrooms.

5. Ace Hardware – It may be a home improvement store, but if you are just looking for a temporary storage for your baby’s cloth diapers because you know that you will sooner or later need a really huge cabinet then Ace Hardware should be the store for you! They hold promos too, where the big plastic bins get to be discounted at 50% or could even end up being sold on a buy one, take one basis. You may also want to check out the shelving solutions that they have which you may just drill on the wall for a pinterest-level shelf-like solution for your kiddo’s nappies.

6. True Value – Next to Ace, this is another good home improvement store that you can check out for storage solutions. They may not have selections that are as vast as those in the specialty stores that I have mentioned above, nor the department stores, but they have unique solutions that you may fancy. They have branches at Century City, Rockwell, Glorietta and more.

7. Other Department Stores – Bigger department stores like Landmark Makati also offer a huge range of storage solutions that you can choose from. You may want to try Robinson’s Department store and even Crossings in EDSA Shangri-la.

8. Big Groceries – Big groceries like Shopwise and various branches of SM Hypermart, and perhaps Puregold also offer hard plastic cabinets, and huge plastic bins that could be perfect for you and your baby. I think some moms also use clear plastic cabinets, and even those that are supposedly intended for dishes — as CD cabinets. And since these dish dryers are made of clear plastic doors, the CD designs can be seen easily.

9. Neighborhood Surplus Shop – If you are fine with using second hand or pre-loved items, then why not drop by your neighborhood Japanese Surplus shop? They have affordable cabinets there made of wood or even hard plastic.

10. UPDATED: May 23, 2016: Vezees Closet. This online store famous for its affordable china nappies, next day shipping and bargain promos also has among its products an Ikea storage solution that can be perfect for your cloth Diaper stash! At P500.00 you can already purchase the Ikea Mesh Hanging Storage with six Compartments. This comes in four different colors too! Check out their FB store here.

So there you have it. I am sure there are other places and Online Shops where you may buy Cloth diaper storage cabinets and solutions in the Philippines. I will be updating this post as I discover more. For the online stores, I included the links of the shops so that you could personally check on their prices and product availability. If you have the time, hope you could drop by my Facebook page and hit the like button, so you can receive regular updates from Happypinaymommy.com direct on your newsfeed.

Thank you so much!

Happypinaymommy.com’s WAHM of the WEEK #9, Mommy Aiko Cortuna

happypinaymommy — Mon, 09 Nov 2015 08:30:10 +0000

Happypinaymommy.com’s WAHM of the Week#9 is Mommy Aiko of Little Bubba’s Bum

Our Ninth Work-At-Home Mommy of the Week, is a mom of two adorable little boys. Her love for cloth diapering made her try her hand at sewing, and now she is a proud local WAHM that makes customized, hybrid-fitted diapers that are according to her – are handmade with love.

Without further ado, presenting to you,

Happypinaymommy.com’s WAHM of the WEEK #9, Mommy Aiko Cortuna of Little Bubba’s Bum Cloth Diapers.

Mommy Aiko of Little Bubba’s Bum Cloth Diapers

Mommy Aiko, as she is fondly known in the cloth diapering community has been sewing hybrid-fitted diapers for more than a year now. Apart from Hybrid fitted diapers, Mommy Aiko now sews Muscle Tees, Raglan Tees, Accessories for Soft Structured Carriers like Tula Baby Carriers, PUL Pockets, Leg Warmers, and more recently HF’s with the baby’s birthstats.

Mommy Aiko says she wants cloth diapering moms to try out hybrid fitted diapers, so she makes an effort to sell her customized diapers at a more affordable price. This while making sure, that each piece is handmade with love – just as if the diapers will be worn by her sons.

Read on the excerpt of our conversation with Mommy Aiko Cortuna of Little Bubba’s Bum Cloth Diapers:

Happypinaymommy: When did you decide to be a WAHM?

Mommy Aiko: I started in October 2014. My little one was 14 months old and has been cloth diapering for six months at that time

HPM: What made you decide to be one?

Mommy Aiko: Honestly, some of my friends were the first to start sewing their own cloth diapers or doing DIY CDs. Then later on I got interested because of the cute prints and the savings so I tried to DIY. I bought a mini sewing machin e. At first, I gave my outputs to my FB friends until I started selling/customizing.

(Post continued below)

=============================================================

HPM: What is the greatest challenge you have faced in relation to being a WAHM?

Mommy Aiko: Time, sleep. I have two kids, I only sew when they are asleep. So I only have limited time in front of the machines.

HPM: What advice can you give to those who may want to become a WAHM?

Mommy Aiko and her little boys: Alkim and Aikee.

Mommy Aiko: “Ipagtahi nyo ang customers nyo na parang ipinagtatahi nyo ang anak nyo.” Set aside your bad vibes, enjoy.

HPM: Who inspires you?

Mommy Aiko: My kids, I’m doing this for them

HPM: Can you describe your products?

Mommy Aiko’s Products: Little Bubba’s Bum Cloth Diapers, Baby Tees and SSC Accessories.

Mommy Aiko: Green and clean. I made them with love. I also want to offer prices which is not so high so many mommies can afford.

Like our past WAHM of the WEEK features, we also asked around about Mommy Aiko’s products.

Mommy Monica, who has a super-fast heavy wetter baby is all praises about Mommy Aiko’s custom made HFs. “Just last week, I started using LBB hf on my baby at night. Boosted with 4-layer hemp cotton fleece insert and with a PUL cover (flairy cloth diaper cover). I was amazed by its performance. 3 hours and there were no leaks. Soakers were only half-soaked. Shell was still dry. To think that it was raining that night. My baby consumes about nine ounces of milk and water in total before dozing off. Tried it again the following night and I got the same result. That’s why I didn’t think twice about “saying mine” on her stocking last August 28. Scored three HFs and a free fitted. Woot!”

Mommy Monica on Little Bubba’s Bum: “One of my first HFs. Got this from her stocking (and at a discounted price). Super squishy probably because it is cotton knit.” She adds: “On average, three hours naglalast with no leaks. Slightly damp minsan sa crotch but not enough that will require a change of outfit (and sheets). I like that the soakers are long as well. Tapos serged pa yun shell kaya it’s bigger than most HFs. Well slightly bigger lang naman. The verdict: I super lurve it.”

Another happy client is Mommy Jheng. “I can say that Little Bubba’s Bum is one of the best local hfs I’ve tried… Her stitches are good and the soakers are very well absorbent… What made me try her work? Uhmm.. I think it started when she was trying to make her own hf, she inspired me to make also but unfortunately i don’t have much patience to sew.. We became online friends as she is very responsive to all of my questions, i was new then to sewing.. As in first time naka hawak ng sewing machine.. i love all of her works.. And by the way lets support local WAHMS.”
