Deborah Kontofski – Author on the Judes Academy Blog

Hey, I'm Debbi, 31 years old and a mom of two children. I'm here to share useful and exciting knowledge about cloth diapers and parenting with you in the Judes Academy Blog.

My Personal Experiences with Cloth Diapers: How I Came to Use Them

My two children were born in December 2019 and December 2021. For my husband and me, washable diapers were initially something entirely new, and we started with some doubts. However, within a few days, we were completely convinced and have exclusively used cloth diapers for both children from birth until potty training. The best part? We saved an incredible amount of waste, and both children were completely diaper-free by 14 months.

Many other parent friends of ours couldn't initially imagine diapering with washable diapers. But when we showed them how easy it is, the skepticism disappeared. Many wanted to try it out immediately, which works wonderfully with the trial set from Judes.

Who Am I? A Look Behind the Scenes

We raise our children in a needs-oriented and self-determined way. We breastfed for a long time, still sleep in the family bed, and always take the path that feels right for everyone. In 2024, we emigrated to Thailand and have been experiencing a great deal of freedom and adventure since then. Here too, the needs of each individual count, and all decisions are made together.

What Makes My Work at Judes So Special

I'm so glad to have been writing for Judes for such a long time now. I admire the simple cloth diaper system, which helps even inexperienced parents do everything right. Should I become a mom again, there's no question which diaper I would choose.

The philosophy behind Judes also inspires me, making writing even more enjoyable. I fully share the same values regarding parenthood and can therefore write authentic texts without having to pretend. For me, Judes is a perfect match – a product that excites me and a brand that provides parents with helpful and immediately applicable tips for life with babies, which I also endorse.
