What an awesome company. We used it for a couple of years from when our little one was around 6 months to 2.5 years old when he got potty trained. They really are incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and super organised so they are always on top of any questions or change requests. Would definitely recommend as a way to cloth diaper. read more

I can't recommend Diaperkind enough. They make the process of cloth diapering so simple and seamless. As a planet-conscious parent, I loved the waste reduction benefits of this service. Not to mention, it really helped the transition to potty training with my little one. They are a great company with great customer service. read more

Diaperkind was my introduction and main resource and service during my kid's 2yr cloth diaper journey. They were so thoughtful about equipping parents and caregivers with the education they need to have a successful experience, and really attentive around customer service. The systems they've set up are really well organized, environmentally conscious, and human-centered. Every time I reached out with a question or need to shift something in my service, they were quickly responsive, caring, and reasonable. Their products are also really well selected and competitively priced with the broader market and aesthetically pleasing. I couldn't recommend more. read more

Really grateful to have found Diaperkind in 2021 when our first kid was born. We've been using their diapers and the drop-up pick-up service for the past almost 5 years as our first aged out and our second was born. It's great to have an option to not use disposable diapers constantly. We kept up with changing the filters and deodorant disks in the diaper pail and it never smelled bad. The pick up service is super convenient and the cloth diapering is easy once you get the hang of it. Luckily, there are MANY opportunities to get good at it, ha! Also, truly, the only times my kids had blow-outs was when they were wearing disposables. We are graduating to home laundering now (we moved and now have washer/dryer in unit). read more

I absolutely adore DiaperKind. They made cloth diapering super easy and were always available for questions via email. As a single parent I found cloth diapering not only feasible, but enjoyable. It is slightly more expensive than disposables but totally worth the peace of mind for the planet and my baby's bottom (they really breathe and I didn't deal with any rash or irritations ever). Also, it was so nice to use the diapers and wipes for spit up, changing pads, a flat absorbent surface for naked time, napkins, tissues, and just everything baby (and sometimes me), and then to pass the laundry off to someone else. The only reason I'm stopping the service is because I was out-of-town for a few months (only paid $10 a week to rent the diapers) and realized that after the newborn stage washing myself was not so daunting (and with a baby on the move a different style of diaper was helpful for high energy times). I really can't say enough good things about this service. read more

Diaperkind made cloth diapering in the city so easy! They were so helpful and responsive whenever we had questions.

Echoing many others here... Diaperkind is the best! Everything you need (the goods, the customer support, extremely reliable service) and nothing you don't (tech snafus, service interruptions, extraneous emails...). All this, and they still maintain the vibe of a family business. Would recommend to anyone considering cloth diapers without reservation. Special accolades to Tanisha, the rep we emailed many times with questions. She was always so responsive, upbeat, and quickly able to address any request. She always diffused my stress. I hope she feels appreciated--thank you, Tanisha! I want to live in a world where everyone treats one another this way :) read more

Diaperkind has helped me in a million ways. When I was expecting my first baby, I went to their workshop on cloth diapering and it helped give me the preparation I needed in order to cloth diaper my baby from birth up until potty training. I used their products and website instructions for home laundering for the first year and a half, and then signed up for their diaper service when we moved to a building without laundry. Their tips on potty training really worked for us, too. They have always been very responsive and professional. We're expecting a second baby now and will definitely sign up for the service again. Can't say enough good things about them! read more

Diaperkind made it possible to use cloth diapers without a washer-dryer at home! Everything about the experience was seamless, and they have great customer service and excellent resources to help get you started and through the different stages as your baby grows. It always made me smile to see a long list of numbers on the prefolds (your set of diapers are all marked with the same number to ensure you get the same ones every week), showing that so many families had used the same set -- and yet that was the only sign they had been used before because they were always spotless. We have moved out of the service but purchased a set of used diapers from Diaperkind to continue cloth diapering in our new home, saving money and resources. read more

Incredible customer service and the service overall. I would definitely recommend if you're looking to try cloth diapers. The team is super understanding and helps you navigate all of it. The pick up and drop off is seamless, especially for NYC apartments! Nina is the best! Always there promptly responding and working out any problems or questions that came up! read more

I just finished a cloth diapering class 101 with one of the fantastic (women-owned) owners and it was SO educational! I highly recommend taking their class to become more informed of how easy it is to cloth diaper, the benefits and help you make the decision to home launder or use their amazing service. I haven't decided whether I am going to home launder or use their service yet, but I just loved the class so much and am excited to cloth diaper. Thank you Diaperkind for helping reduce landfills with every client and class that you offer. read more

Diaperkind, how do I love thee, let me count the ways... 1) Amazing responsive customer service always going above and beyond. My son's skin was very sensitive as a newborn, excema, rashes, etc. The staff was knowledgeable and helped me troubleshoot any diapering issues and supplied us with creams that helped and were safe. So thankful. Also, so helpful with potty training and at 20 months old he had it down in 3 days! Saved us tons of money, poopy diapers and stress. 2) Reliable delivery and pick up. No trips to the store for diapers, sound mind for not using disposables, easy service schedule changes on the website. Easy, easy, easy. And when you're tired, you need easy. 3) Making cloth diapering more accessible through service is a great mission, especially in a city where a lot of people have to do laundry at the laundromat and wouldn't choose to add to their laundromat trips with dirty diapers. Diaperkind, you're saving the planet one diaper at a time. It really adds up! read more

Diaperkind is an AMAZING business! Sarah and Liz are doing a FANTASTIC job! I was so impressed from the start when I attended one of the monthly "orientations" they offer. It allowed me to become familiar with the whole world of cloth diapering (which is quite a big deal....but you should know that if you're looking into CD'ing). Their customer service has been spot on. Something happened with our drop-off/pick up one night and they communicated with us immediately to make sure we got our diapers asap. The website and content is SO helpful and easy to navigate. Most importantly the quality and service has been excellent. Sadly I had to stop using the service b/c I moved to Chicago. But they have a fantastic home laundering section that has allowed me to get the right products and instructions to build and clean my own stash. Diaperkind helped make cloth diapering such a joy (ha, crazy right?!). They are one of the the many reasons I miss Brooklyn! read more

We've loved using Diaperkind throughout our diaperping journey from when my son was first born through potty training at age 2. The team were always extremely responsive, and the service couldn't be easier or more use friendly. Very grateful to Diaperkind for enabling us to be a cloth diaper family without home laundering! read more

Cloth diapers are so easy to use, cost effective, and environmentally so much more responsible than disposables. It takes just a couple minutes to learn, and thousands and thousands are diapers are kept out of landfills for almost no more effort than disposables. Cloth diaper baby's also potty train before 2 (our son 20 months), so you end up saving money and have your little one out of diapers so much sooner. My family used Diaperkind from newborn until our little man was 20 months old and potty trained, and we couldn't have had a better experience. The entire Diaperkind team was SO supportive and helpful through the entire process. They answered questions about diapering, taught us all about cloth diapers, and supported us through any problems we had. They even gave us great advice on how to potty train! I truly recommend cloth diapering your child, and using Diaperkind's services - saving the environment while diapering your baby in comfortable, organic cotton is a win-win. We couldn't recommend cloth diapering and Diaperkind's service more! read more

We really appreciated our experience with cloth diapering and all the support we received from the Diaperkind team. The whole team was extremely helpful and the service was very professional & reliable -- even during the pandemic. All in all a very smooth & pleasant experience, which we recommend strongly to other families! read more

Just ended my three year journey with Diaperkind because we are potty trained. They made my process with cloth diapering so easy! I wish I had done this service with my two older children, but happy I had the opportunity to experience cloth diapering with my third. Can't recommend enough! read more

WE LOVE DIAPERKIND! We started cloth diapering when our son was born and justended our service after potty training him a couple of weeks after he turned 2. The company is wonderful - staff are friendly, helpful, and extremely responsive with any questions or concerns. I love that you can order supplies/supplements with the weekly diaper delivery, and pause/change delivery or pickup while traveling through their website. While there's a small learning curve for parents and other caregivers, we were so happy with cloth diapers - he rarely got diaper rash and never had a blow out with cloth. We also found him much easier to wipe/clean up while using cloth diapers. The most fun part is picking out cute and colorful covers. We'll definitely be returning to Diaperking with future kids! read more

Perfection in a service. They were so great setting us up - had everything we need as we went along - and very easy to wrap up now that we've potty trained at 21 mo! We won't be gone for long and plan to use the service again for baby 2. read more

Love, love, love, love Diaperkind. Cannot say enough good things about them. Not only do they provide a wonderful service with high-quality products, but they've really thought through every detail of how to make the experience most convenient to parents. I look forward to every Tuesday (our "diaper night") knowing our gross stinky diapers will magically disappear while we sleep and be replaced with fresh, clean ones. Their site is really easy to use, and they are so responsive via e-mail. They've gone above and beyond for us several times, hooking us up with loaner diapers when our baby arrived early and too tiny to fit into the prefolds, answering all my (sometimes annoying) questions, bearing with me when I got confused about how to alter the quantities of diapers delivered, and more. This is a great small, local business doing a wonderful service for parents and the planet. I recommend them to every parent I know, and now I'm recommending them to YOU. read more

If you're reading this review, you might be wondering if cloth diapers are right for you. When I was pregnant, all then endless parenting choices were head-spinning, but this is a choice I am so glad I made for so many reasons. Forget environmental reasons for a minute. When it comes to avoiding diaper rash, avoiding inconvenient blowouts, and even convenience, this cloth service beats paper diapers by miles. The diapers are so easy to use and the service makes diapering as convenient as it can possibly be. Imagine not taking out the garbage every hour. Imagine not doing harried runs to CVS at 4AM. Imagine no impossible-to-get-rid-of rashes. I like cloth for all those high-minded environmentalist reasons, but I like it even more for all the make-life-easier reasons. Maybe you can't afford a service but are thinking of laundering them yourself. Take the Diaper 101 class and you'll be all set. You could save thousands of bucks doing this and still have the benefits of cloth. If you have questions, emailing the team will get you quick, friendly responses. It really feels like a nice group of people running this poo-stinky (but lovely) ship. I've been using the service for 6 months and hope to use it for the entirety of my daughter's diapering days. But even these first 6 months have been great enough for me to highly recommend this service. read more

The entire experience with Diaperkind was easy and pleasant. Cloth diapers are not difficult. They offer classes, but I figured everybody used cloth diapers for thousands of years and it can't be that difficult. I watched the 2-min instructional video a couple of times and that was enough. There are tips on their website, too. I rarely had to interact with Diaperkind -- setting out the old diapers and getting the new diapers back once a week is easy -- but Diaperkind was very responsive whenever I did contact them. Changing sizes or pausing delivery when on vacation is all done on the website with a few clicks. The best part is keeping several thousand diapers out of a landfill for almost no extra effort compared to disposables. Cloth is probably a little cheaper, too. Finally, both my kids were toilet trained, daytime and nighttime, in under a week at 18 months. I think that wearing cloth diapers made them a lot more aware of things and made it relatively easy to start training early. Apparently back in the day when everyone used cloth diapers, 18 months was pretty normal. read more

I diapered two children through potty training with Diaperkind's delivery service. They were amazing in every way, but I was most impressed with their customer service. Super responsive to every issue, flexible with our changing schedule and (two!) moves. On top of it all, every Diaperkind employee I interacted with was kind and warm and made me feel like they were invested in my family. I can't recommend Diaperkind highly enough! read more

We used Diaperkind's prefold service for about 6.5 months until we moved out of the area - the diapers were always clean and fresh-smelling, the delivery was prompt, but most importantly, the communication was AWESOME. Our baby was born early, so we needed to make changes - no problem; I had questions about diapering - no problem; our baby was in-between sizes - no problem .... Really, they were fantastic. I was skeptical that we would be able to do cloth diapering in our Brooklyn apartment and Diaperkind made it possible. If you're at all on the fence about cloth diapering -- give this service a try! :) read more

My name is Benjamin Kintisch, and I'm a happy customer since the birth of my daughter Dalia Jean Kintisch December of 2010. The diapers are easy, environmentally friendly, and good for my baby's skin. Whenver we need to briefly switch to disposables from the cloth diapers, we see Dalia's skin situation worsen, including redness, "wrinkly" skin, and occasionally rashing. Plus, we find those weird chemical granules in and amongst Dalia's little folds. This concernss us. With cloth diapers, Dalia lets us know when she's wet or dirty, we switch her diaper and wipe her up as needed. This way she stays healthy and happy. It took a quick lesson for the women at daycare, but now they are used to the cloth diapers and send the dirties home each day. They agree that it's easy to use. read more

We have been using Diaperkind's cloth service since our baby's birth 6 months ago. We took the diaper 101 class, which is 100% worth the fee. We knew we wanted to do cloth diapers, but we really didn't know that much about them, and the class really showed us how easy it was, and how we didn't have anything to be afraid of. We had a lot of people give us gift certificates for Diaperkind which was really great. We used the service for 6 months, and it has been amazing. Just one less thing to worry about in the early challenging months. You put your dirty diapers in the pail, and leave it in the drop off spot, then every week you get clean new diapers. Pretty awesome. We are now switching to self launder as we do have our own washer/dryer - so feeling prepared to make that plunge. Love you Diaperkind, thanks for everything, and we may be back! :) read more

I haven't even started the service yet and I am already in love with DiaperKind. I went to the class a few weeks ago, and was amazed. Liz, the owner and instructor, gave us all the facts about cloth diapering at home v. the DiaperKind service v. using disposables, and which options were best based on your situation. It was all very nonjudgemental, I didn't feel pressured to go in either direction. Instead, I felt like I could really trust DiaperKind to put my baby first. I feel like there are so many decisions to make when you are having your first baby, it's overwhelming. What I appreciate about DiaperKind is that they have done a ton of research, and made of ton of hard decisions for me already. Where baby products have failed, they have designed new ones! The other day I got a bunch of baby powder as a gift... and I was like hmmmm.... I bet there is a reason why DiaperKind doesn't sell this. I looked it up, and baby powder can cause asthma and is not recommended at all for newborns! That savvy and expertise, combined with the benefits of cloth diapering (less diaper rashes, potty training a year earlier on average, and no poopy blowouts) make this an obvious choice for me. read more

We just ended our 2.5 year service with DK, as our toddler is potty trained. They are absolutely amazing! Not only are the people incredibly helpful, responsive, and accommodating. But the service itself is fantastic. The diapers are of the highest quality and cleanliness is unbelievable. Diaper pick up is incredibly easy and very reliable. My partner and I both work full-time and travel quite a bit. He was not so excited about cloth diapers, but I was determined to find a way to make it work. We both attribute our success with diapering to DK's amazing service! For those who are considering cloth for the first time, it's very doable and easy with DK's help! We honestly find them easier than disposables, which we tend to use when we're out of town. It takes about 10 more secs/diaper change, but we almost never needed any diaper creams because she never had diaper rash, and had less laundry because there were less leaks/overflows. plus we didn't have tons of stinky trash laying around! Even our daycare was impressed by the quality of the diapers and ease of the service. There was a miscommunication initially and they were not prepared for cloth diapers, but they learned them right away and it was no problem at all. Bottom line - the service is a godsend and we look forward to using it with our next child! read more

Cloth diapering with Diaperkind is one of the best decisions I've made, as a new parent. It's so easy! Once a week, the clean set is delivered, and the dirties are picked up. It also cost less than disposable diapers. As someone else mentioned, the diaper pails do not stink! This business is local and female-owned. Sarah and Liz are fast to respond to any questions or concerns. Excellent customer service. Their website sells all kinds of products and accessories (diaper covers, soaps, ect..), which can be delivered to you with your weekly drop-off. We use olive oil on baby's booty, and cloth diapers, and her skin looks great! Plus, diaper covers can be so cute! My favorite are Imse Vimse (cotton covers from Sweden, available through Diaperkind), and for fun patterns Rock-A-Bye Booty. I got some cute wet bags (to store the dirty diapers while when we're not at home) on Etsy, although these are also available from Diaperkind. With a diaper service available, there is no reason not to cloth diaper. It's better for baby, better for the planet, and easier on your wallet. My husband was skeptical at first, but now he loves CD'ing too! read more

We are just ending our nearly two year run with Diaperkind. We began on day one with them (thankful that this Brooklyn business also works in Queens), took a few months break where I thought I would launder them myself only to realize how much angst that could build up in me in the summer months :), and went right back to DK once that simple revelation hit me. Instead of having a baby shower/registry (cause who needs all that stuff in a small nyc apartment!), we asked anyone who was interested in getting us a gift to gift us a Diaperkind gift certificate. We got nearly 6 months worth of cloth diapering out of that idea! Having laundered at home vs sending out to the service - it can save money - but trying to get it right can be such trial and error, and having to launder more often that the service does - just wasn't worth it for me. i tried both a hand machine and spin dryer at home and by doing at the laundromat - neither did the trick consistently and I was so glad to send my diapers back to the service when I gave up. What I have loved the most (besides all the perks of cloth diapering), has been the incredible business that is Diaperkind. Questions and concerns are answered promptly, the website is easy to use and a source of info and great supplemental supplies, and I am always talking to a person who is friendly, real, and in my city. This truly is a community business run by a group of incredibly helpful and supportive people. We are now nearly potty trained and sending out our dirty diapers for the last time tonight. It was a little sentimental moment to say so-long to cloth and our kiddo's big cloth diapered bottom :) read more

Best customer service of any company I've ever interacted with. Thank you!

They expanded their service area to Hoboken/Jersey City just in time for my daughter's arrival. At that time (and maybe still?) they were the only diaper service available in the area. My experience was such a positive one. I used flats in the beginning and switched to fitteds for the last 6 months or so. Both are great options. The staff was always super responsive and helpful. It was so apparent that they are passionate about the business. They were advisers every step of the way through starting solids, extra protection overnight, long weekend trips, home laundering (in a pinch) and more. I can't recommend them enough. Cloth diapering is so much easier than people think. Go for it! read more

I have been using Diaperkind since my daughter was born over 6 months ago. I LOVE this service. My husband and I took the Cloth Diapering 101 class when I was pregnant and knew this was the way for us to go. I love their ethos, attention to quality and their customer service. I always knew I wanted to use cloth diapers, but didn't know how I could handle the laundry - especially as a working mom. Diaperkind sweeps my dirties away every Tuesday night (usually within the hour of putting them outside our door) and leaves us a clean batch for the week. When my daughter was 5 months old, Diaperkind sent me an email thanking me. They said by using their service, I had kept over 1700 diapers out of landfills! I love knowing I'm doing the best for the environment and for my daughter. She still has never had a disposable diaper touch her bum! And it feels so good to support a small business that has such a positive impact. read more

When Liz from DiaperKind came to give the presentation on cloth diapering at Caribou Baby last year I was like "Whatever, hippie lady. Who can afford this?" but I held on to their card anyway. As my pregnancy progressed, I began to look into the benefits of cloth diapering further and started to crunch the numbers and figured, "What the hey? Let's give it a whirl!" We are five weeks into CDing with DiaperKind and we are utter converts. The few times we've had to use disposables, we've been like "Ugh, thank God for cloth, que viva DiaperKind!" Delivery has been reliable every week and Liz, Sarah and the crew have been incredibly responsive and open to all my little quibbles and suggestions. My only minor complaint is that I wish they had a better more easy to navigate website and maybe also that they facilitate some sort of forum for their customers since it'd be great to share resources and best practices with the larger community. I'd love it if there were a way for the site to be more useful to the current/prospective buyers while still being of financial benefit to the owners. .but anyway, I love this service and am glad for the opportunity to easily and inexpensively dip our feet into the world of cloth. read more

We used DiaperKind for my son (now 5) and are just finishing up with diapers for my daughter (almost 2). They are a wonderful company to work with! Cloth diapering may seem daunting at first -- but with their video tutorials (yes we nervously watched them pre-baby!), supportive team, and great website, it's so incredibly simple, not to mention reduces our waste footprint. Delivery nights went off without a hitch, our kids started using the potty sooner than many other kids we know, and it was always easy to pause service when traveling or out of town. Highly highly recommend! read more

My family used Diaperkind til our little girl was 22 months and potty trained, and have nothing but good things to say about it. Tanisha and the whole team were amazingly helpful and always responsive, even during the pandemic (FYI diapering is an essential business/service so you can still get your cloth diapers and laundry service weekly!). Cloth diapers were high quality, service was efficient, communication was always exceptional, and our baby was potty trained before age two. Can't recommend Diaperkind more highly for parents who want fewer diapers in landfills and less diaper rash on their kids' bums (also, we never had even one blowout). Moreover, you'll be supporting a dope women-owned local business. It doesn't get any better. Thank you, Diaperkind! We'll be back when our next baby comes. read more

After seven-and-a-half month or so of weekly, horrifically messy diaper blow outs, I was almost at my wits end. We had tried Pampers, Huggies, Luvs, Babies R Us and Kirkland brand diapers, and somehow poop was still managing to get out of those diapers, leak through my baby's clothes, and on to whomever was holding her, or the stroller, or the car seat that she was sitting in. So, I went to the internet and started researching and kept getting the same answer -- cloth was the way to go. Still, it sounded messy and daunting. I found a local company (Diaperkind) that taught Cloth Diapering 101 classes, and I figured I'd go and keep an open mind. The class was super informative, and I left thinking that I could give their weekly diaper service a go, and if it didn't work out, it wasn't like I had spent a ton of money on diapers and covers (of which there are many, many different brands and options), and I could just cancel it and keep doing what I was doing. My daughter is 14-months old now, and we haven't had a single blow out since. And on top of that, no diaper rashes, either. I am 110% a cloth-diaper-convert. I don't want to be "that parent," BUT I want to talk to everyone I know and sell them on how amazing cloth diapering (and especially Diaperkind's service) is. We have access to a washer and dryer in our building, so as much as I love Diaperkind, and as convenient as their service is (so, so, so convenient and wonderful to never have to make a late night run to the drug store for some overpriced diapers, but instead have clean, white, wonderfully smelling cloth diaper prefolds delivered to your doorstep once a week), it makes sense for us to save a little bit of money and switch over to laundering them ourselves. Still... even though it made sense on paper, I was slightly nervous about actually having to wash them myself, especially when there's so much conflicting information on what to do out on the internet (like no dryer sheets, Ev3R1!1!! If you have shared laundry facilities, you have to thoroughly clean and disinfect every single dryer that may have ever possibly had a dryer sheet near it! And don't even dry your diapers ever! And don't use this detergent! Or that detergent! Or wash diapers on a full moon. Okay, I'm exaggerating, but you get the idea). I reached out to Diaperkind, and I said I was thinking about making the switch, but I was nervous, and you know what they did? They invited me to come and speak to them in person. I was expecting a hard sell on why I should keep using their service, but instead I left with two samples of cloth diaper prefolds, a card with easy-to-read instructions on how to launder them myself, AND a huge sample of their new washing powder. I was given a pep talk on how I could do this, told if I had any questions I could always reach out, and left feeling like, heck yeah, I can! Thank you so much, Diaperkind. You gals are awesome. read more

We used Diaperkind for over 4 years, with two babies up through potty training. I know I couldn't have done cloth diapering without their help. It was super easy to put our soiled diapers out once a week and receive new ones. Everyone I contacted there was super responsive and helpful; they were especially supportive when my son was hospitalized as an infant and we had to suspend service for awhile. And it was really convenient to be able to order cloth diapering supplies from them and have them delivered with our order. If we ever have a third, I will definitely use Diaperkind again. read more

We are very happy with Diaperkind, even my skeptical husband... The diapers leak less than disposables (for us), she hasn't hada rash since we switched, the pail we got from DK never stinks, and best of all, Liz and Sarah provide excellent and extremely prompt service. They are a tremendous resource to NYC's eco-friendly community. If you are even considering it, give them a try. read more

Diaperkind is an amazing service. The diapers are, well theyre cloth diapers. But theyre always clean smelling/looking, they pick up and deliver on time and send reminders so you dont sabotage their efforts. Most of all the ladies there are such a pleasure to deal with, so easy to get in touch with, and are so committed to their cause and their business it made me happy to use their service and look forward to being part of the DK community. I stopped by to drop off diapers once and their facility is sparkling clean and really cute. I wanted to stay and hang out! :) read more
