Cutie Poops and Bottoms

This eco-focused store sells organic products and advocates cloth diapering. Dig deeper and you’ll find they have great classes for new parents as well. There is a baby-wearing class that leads you through a hands-free workout while bonding with your little bundle (6 weeks and up). If an older sibling wants to tag along he or she can wear their favorite doll to be just like mommy. The store also offers a 30-minute mommy (or daddy or grandma) and me yoga class that involves gentle stretching for baby and you.
