Nayla Natural Care in Mothering Magazine!

What an honour to have been mentioned in Mothering Magazine's January/February issue! As many of your know, Mothering Magazine is a long running and very well respected natural parenting US based publication.

Mothering reviewed our natural and SLS free Green Beaver toothpastes and they loved them! (But why wouldn't they? These toothpastes are great!) Green Beaver toothpastes are safe for the entire family, including babies and toddlers.

If you have never read Mothering Magazine and are into natural parenting and/or green living, you should check them out. Many libraries carry Mothering, you can subscribe to the print or online version, or you can pick up a copy at your favourite magazine store.

If you don't have a copy of the January/February 2010 magazine, here is the mention:

Our Green Beaver Toothpastes also made safemama.com's Natural Toothpaste "Cheat Sheet". safemama.com puts out "cheat sheets" every now and then with the intent on having them help parents when they are trying to determine what the best and safest products are for their children...because let's face it, it's not an easy task!

Just Because you aren't Pregnant... - Part 1

...does not mean you cannot use Earth Mama Angel Baby products!


Do you know that many Earth Mama Angel Baby's pregnancy products are great for long-past or not-quite pregnant people? Yep, whether you’re not a mama yet, have a little angel who just hit her terrible twos or are just experiencing those glorious hot flashes, you too can use an Earth Mama Angel Baby!

"Female troubles?" Organic Monthly Comfort Tea! Sure, its Lady's Mantle-rich blend is great for postpartum bleeding and cramping, but those same herbs are traditionally used for "female troubles" during menstruation, after pregnancy and even during perimenopause. So brew up a cuppa when you have monthly cramps, need some comforting balance, or are dallying with "That Time of Life".

Grumpy? Pukey? Happy Mama Spray! We know it's a terrific pick-me-up for those baby blues, and eases pregnancy nausea with its gingery kick, but it's also great for calming and uplifting mamas who are facing the post-baby battles, from two to teen. It's also a safe, comforting spray for pukey, fluey or carsick kids, or nausea any time.

Urpy, stomach flu? Organic Morning Wellness Tea! It's a natural for pregnancy nausea, and soothing for anyone's upset tummy. A perfect companion with Happy Mama Spray, and of course if it's safe for pregnant women so it's safe for kids too!

Stinky, itchy feet? Organic Happy Feet! It's great for pregnancy's expanding ankles, but was formulated with antifungal herbs and oils that are great for the stinkiest feet any athlete ever had, and it's also super for anyone who just needs a good, relaxing soak.

New! CleanWell All-Natural Hand Sanitizers!

I had been patiently (or impatiently!) waiting for the chance to have CleanWell hand sanitizers in the store. So when I had originally contacted CleanWell headquarters in the US before the store had launched, I was disappointed to learn that their products had not yet been approved for sale in Canada.

The wait is over! CleanWell is now in Canada and at Nayla Natural Care!

CleanWell comes in 2 great scents, citrus herb and orange vanilla. Each bottle packs in 200+ sprays. Yes, sprays....these are spray bottles which I find are easier to deal with than squeeze bottles.

Proven to kill 99.99% of the germs that can make you sick (including MRSA, E-Coli and Staph) and free of alcohol or benzalkonium chloride, CleanWell is the all natural choice for hand hygiene. It won't dry your hands, won't sting on cuts or broken skin and is safe to use on all members of the family.

So why choose CleanWell over some of the more popular mainstream hand sanitizers? CleanWell is:
  • Safe for children, contains no alcohol, no ingestion risk, does not sting

  • Natural and free of toxic synthetic chemicals such as triclosan

  • The first product made with revolutionary INGENIUM, a safe and natural germ killer with zero toxic chemicals and presents no ingestion risks

  • 100% biodegradable which means that it breaks down quickly and completely without upsetting the natural balance of the ecosystem

  • Made from rapidly renewable botanical sources and is part of a sustainable solution

  • Certified cruelty free, never tested on animals

  • Non drying, it leaves hands soft

  • Fresh and pleasant smelling, comes in 2 natural scents (citrus herb & orange vanilla

  • Safe for sensitive skin

  • Comes in an easy to use spray bottle format
