When you spend as much time as I do probing the internet over cloth diapers, you come across some very interesting, some not-so-interesting, and frequently, some exciting things, such as the growing number of cloth diapering courses offered by local cloth diaper stores.

Based in Madison Wisconsin, this Pregnancy and Early Parenting Center offers a FREE cloth diaper overview workshop. The decision to cloth diapers is best made before the baby comes - so you, the parent, can prepare. At their workshop they answer their attendees specific questions about cloth diapers.
Discussions range from the benefits of using cloth diapers, washing cloth diapers or using a cloth diaper service, and even how to use cloth diapers. They are also a retail store (as seen above) and so once you learn about the different diapering products, they can help you pick out your first cloth diaper stash!
With our online cloth diaper store we know how rare a one-on-one approach is when choosing from the large variety of cloth diapers available on the market today. It is encouraging to see information classes like this one made available on a local level.
If you live in Madison, Wisconsin, check out the Happy Bambino. If not, you can find an informative hand-out for their course on their cloth diaper web-page, Cloth Diaper 101.
