    No Name Diapers

    So who loves those no name diapers?? Not me! Had a few explosions this week....didn't realize how bad one was today until redressing the baby....I'll let you figure the rest out!

    What bugs me is that she arrives in Huggies EVERY morning, yet I've been given some el cheapo things to use. I guess I have way more time to change diapers and clothes more often....of course!

    ahhhhh....It's Friday...a few more hours

    I have one girl in the Parents' Choice diapers. I was skeptical because I always used Pampers and most daycare parents use Pampers of some sort but I asked the mom how they were and she assured me they were going to be pretty decent.
    I can't say that they have been much worse. They leak maybe once every two months but I was pleasantly surprised.
    I change every 2-3 hours so they seem to hold up. I am not sure I would want them overnight though.

    You situation sounds crazy /different since the parents seem to be using the good stuff themselves.

    TGIF ! I couldn't be more thrilled the weekend is almost here

    Lol. I had to laugh while reading this because I have the same type of situation. This little girl arrives in no name diapers every morning but they have given me pampers. within 15 minutes of being here the diaper is exploding and the gel is getting every where!
    I don't understand the parents thinking some times.
    Happy Friday

    yeah...if the parents used them, it wouldn't bother me at all. It just seems like a slap in the face. They're not good enough for the parents or their time is more valuable, but for me at daycare, it'll do....

    I have some kids who use non-name brand diapers and I haven't really had much issue. They are a little less stretchy/comfy, but I haven't had a leakage problem so far.

    It is actually very common for parents to use the cheap diapers in the daytime but the more expensive pampers overnight and then just put one of those on when child wakes up cause they are there. They may or may not use the no name on weekends and keep the pampers for outings. I used to do the same.

    I have one that comes in a no name brand, and the are fine, yet I have pampers for him.
    I have three that come in no names from the states I believe. I really haven't had any problems with them at all.

    I didn't look at it that way! Thanks, Playfelt. Makes me feel a little better. I'm going to go with that theory!

    We used Costco Kirkland diapers as well as Zehrs Teddys Choice diapers on our DD when she was over a year. Huggies we used before that.

    I never had a problem with generic diapers but we changed our DD often, she never got diaper rashes when she was in our care. Our daycare provider said they leaked and DD used to come home with the nastiest of rashes and I can tell you it was due to her not being changed often.

    Now as a daycare provider two of my families have used generic diapers and I never have had problems. Most leaks happen due to improper fit of diapers or due to the diaper being to full.

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
Updates
We expect providers to keep their listing and available openings up-to-date. However, to prevent oversights, openings expire after 45 days.
