* Welcome to the Cincinnati chapter of DiaperFreeBaby *

DiaperFreeBaby is a group dedicated to helping families discover & enjoy the emotional, developmental, environmental, & health benefits of practicing Elimination Communication (EC), a joyous alternative to current potty training methods!

You'll find many parallels btwn EC & your baby's eating needs (learning hunger signs, liquid diet, gradual solids, eventually self-feeding!) -- EC is gradual, logical, organic:
-observe & learn baby's signs & signals
-provide cue sounds & elimination-place associations
-communicate as a team w/ baby as s/he gently & over many months gradually takes more responsibility for toileting (as solids, finger feeding, & utensils happen)

EC is also nurturing, FUN, frugal, ecofriendly, *AND* becomes 2nd nature!


MEETINGS

Parents, babies, parents-to-be are all welcome at our relaxed & informal meetings. Bring your open mind, your ?s, great successes, current challenges, new discoveries, & enthusiasm. You don't have to be doing EC to join this group - simply open, interested in giving it a try, & willing to attend a meeting.
