We all try and do our part to help the planet, after all we want our children to have the best environment to grow up in. The good news is there are loads of eco-friendly baby brands popping up, as well as huge supermarkets such as Asda and Aldi changing their products, understanding parents are looking for less plastic, less wastage and more sustainable options.
From sustainable baby clothes, to plastic-free alternatives for weaning, to embracing second-hand over new, here are 10 of our favourite eco-friendly brands for babies and toddlers.
