Peace of Mind: Buying Organic Cotton for Your Baby

Dressing your little one can be one of the most fun jobs as a new parent. Those tiny onesies, sweet pj’s, and tiny socks are irresistible!

In the midst of all of the excitement of a new baby, you may not consider what’s in the clothing you are purchasing or how fabric choices may contribute to living a more natural lifestyle. Since clothing is in constant contact with a baby’s delicate and sensitive skin, choosing items and brands like Sapling Child and Ollie Jones, made of organic cotton and non-toxic dyes, ensures that the garments will be soft enough for the skin and durable enough not to tear easily.

Choosing clothing made of sustainable fibres with non-toxic dyes are the safest and will keep harmful chemicals and toxins away from your baby’s skin.  Look for clothing that is made out of organic cotton, hemp, bamboo, wool, cashmere, or silk and check the label for no chemical finishes, non-toxic dyes and inks, and fair labor practices.  You can also check the label for The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) organic label.  GOTS is the world’s leading textile processing standard for organic fibres and requires that the clothing is 95 percent organic and has no toxic dyes or finishes.

We are proud to offer organic cotton clothing for your little ones, available online or in-studio at Toronto Yoga Mamas Leslieville location; to give you piece of mind.
