Mindful Parent, Mindful Earth Each person, in Portugal, produces 473 kg of waste per year, part of this is a result of disposable nappies, baby wipes, disposable sanitary pads, tampons, incontinence pads and breast pads. The average baby from birth to toddler, will require 6,000 nappy changes and more than double in baby wipes. This equates to costs averaging €1500 to €3000 per child for nappies alone. The average woman will spend approximately €80 per year on disposable sanitary items, which over the lifetime of their menstrual cycle alone, can equate to an average of €2200 to €3000. The statistics are alarming, and so our goal has been to continue to offer the ultimate alternatives to everyday needs, aiding where we can, families in their journey to a more mindful lifestyle.
