Which Diapers/Pull-Ups/Wipes Do You Prefer?

[E Daycare]

I dont supply diapers or wipes as they become a added cost with 3 little ones needed to be changed all the time. The parents supply for their kids and I have one kid who has generic walgreens and the other in pampers diapers and huggies wipes. I prefer huggies wipes for my son as target brand diapers. I tried pampers but he blistered. I go in assuming a parent has their own take on diapers and wipes and just ask for them when needed. I dont want to worry about allergic reactions and what not, especially since my own kid has sensitive skin. I just go with "the parent knows best" (which isnt always true but...) and let them provide.

Parents supply their own diapers and wipes. I prefer the Target brand wipes. I've found they clean up messes (diaper and other) nicely. I don't like the Pampers wipes for cleaning up other messes like craft stuff. My Target ones do much better. As far as diapers, it just depends on the kid. DD was a VERY chunky baby with ultra-sensitive skin. We found the best diapers for her were Huggies. We've tried to switch a few times to Target brand and Luv's, but she had reactions to both. DS did fine in both Luvs and Target brand.

I supply both diapers and wipes, I got tired of the parents taking 2 and 3 weeks to bring in supplies. I like luvs diapers and sams club wipes. I provide most of the stuff because the parents are always forgetting things

I supply wipes and parents supply diapers.

I use the "Sensitive" Pampers wipes because they are unscented and I don't have to worry about skin issues. I know a lot of people like Huggies wipes, but when my DS4 was young, I couldn't find an unscented version. Do they have one? I would be willing to try it. My other issue with Huggies wipes was that they seemed so wet (like wring them out wet). Did I just have a bad batch or are they like that? My only complaint about the Pampers wipes is that they come out so many at a time or that they fall into the package and you can't get any out. Just curious. Really, my whole family uses Huggies wipes and most of my friends, too, so they must be good.

For my kids, I use/d Pampers diapers. They used to be fabulous. Then they changed their formula in the "Cruisers" and they make my DS blister, too. I've tried Huggies, Target brand, Babies R Us brand and I don't like any of them. Now I have to use the Baby Dry Pampers (which are cheaper but less absorbant) or the Sensitive Pampers (which are wonderful but expensive-and according to my DS who is 20 mos. they are inferior because they don't have Elmo on them!) A friend gave me a few Luvs to try and the 2 I tried were great, but they don't carry them at Babies R Us, which is where my hubby works part time and it's so convenient to have him pick them up.

As far as my DCK: one uses Pampers Cruisers, my DS uses Pampers Baby Dry, one uses Huggies or Pampers (must be whichever is on sale as it varies) and one uses Seventh Generation. I don't like the Seventh Generation. I know they are good for the environment, but they feel like cardboard! Ick! I couldn't put my baby in a cardboard diaper. Besides, they are brown so they look nasty, too. Really, though, I don't care what they bring and have no problem using any of them. I'm just glad they bring them.

My parents supply diapers and wipes. I supply more wipes and prefer the Costco brand as I get a TON of wipes and they work well, too. I LOVE Target brand wipes and used them for the first year for my second son. My first son, I used Huggies Supreme diapers (he was very very sensitive to other brands) and my second son, I have only used plain Huggies < love them! My parents use Target brand and Huggies.

I like Target wipes and Target dipes. Hee hee, that rhymes. We never used pull-ups with DD so I can't speak for those.

I should say, I provide wipes, and parents supply diapers.

I don't get parents who bring generic diapers to my house and yet I notice when the child arrives they have on a name brand one...always makes me wonder what they think I do with the diapers they supply...it is their kid still who is wearing the diaper. If the parent thinks they should wear a name brand diaper at home why don't they get the same one here? It isn't like I'm using them so they are just being cheap because they have to share...no one shares diapers. Each child has their own cubbie/basket in bathroom with their things labeled. I never understood that. I suppose they could be wearing different ones because night time peeing is different than daytime peeing (?) I dunno...just makes me wonder...

I've had this, too. I guess I don't get the reasoning. I can understand wearing inexpensive play clothes here as they sometimes get paint, dirt, grass stains, etc. on them, but I don't get the cheap diapers for daycare thing.

Oh I understand it.

They know that the cheap diapers require more actual diaper changes and more incidences of the kid blowing thru them with pee and poop. They pay you the same whether you change four times or five times a day and whether you have to clean the kid up after a blow out or not. They believe it saves them money and they get your "extra" work for free.

We do not allow generic diapers or cloth diapers. The brands we accept are Huggies, Pampers, and Luvs. We accept Target brand diapers but the current Target brand runs one size smaller than Huggies, Pampers, and Luvs. If you would like to use Target diapers we must have one size up from what your child would wear in the premium diapers. We also do not allow generic wipes with the exception of Target wipes. No scented wipes.

I don't care what brand they send. I change diapers when ever I notice they have peed. I don't have a schedule to change them. So pamper or target i dint care. I do HATE aldi diapers The wipes though, if the buy cheap, I double them. Lol

[daysofelijah]

The two I have in diapers right now are in cloth. I prefer cloth diapers personally, but will only do pocket or AIO and only dump, don't rinse. As far as paper diapers I like Target diapers best, Pampers are too stinky.

We do community wipes. Each of the parents brings in a pack every couple months or so, and I usually buy a big pack every few months. We use them for more than just diapering, (face wipes, craft clean-up, etc.) so everyone pitches in. I like huggies wipes the best I guess, but am not too picky. I usually just buy the costco kirkland big pack when I buy wipes.

I provide wipes and cloth diapers for all kids still in diapers (I have 2 in dipes right now). The parents were a little leary about cloth at first but now love that I offer it as a service. Then for wipes I just use any store brand sensitive (whatever is the cheapest at the time ).

I love the Kirkland signature brand of diapers, I think they are very comparable to huggies supreme but I like them even more, and I also use the kirklandwipes, I supply all, I include it in my price, and its a good tax deduction! I didn't always supply I just started a while ago, but I figured sometimes parents forget, sometimes I forget......Pampers will always be my favorite............but kirkland brand is right next to it.

I do not supply diapers or wipes, but I add my wipes to everyone's, because I use them for clean ups as well. I only buy Pampers or Huggies. I only buy Huggies diapers, and always have for each of my children. I buy the large case at Sam's very cheap!

I've considered providing cloth dipes! My own DD and this upcoming baby were/will be CD'd, and I found out this week that two of my dcms are expecting, so it's on my mind, . Do you put them back in a sposie before they go home?
