According to the EPA, "Americans, on average, spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors, where the concentrations of some pollutants are 2 to 5 times higher than typical outdoor concentrations."

Green Cradle was born out of necessity. After health issues arose within our own family, we began to seriously research the health effects associated with the chemicals in children's products.
What did we learn? Furniture, mattresses, bedding and bodycare products were actually loaded with toxic chemicals, allergens and carcinogens. We felt overwhelmed by this information.
We made changes to our lives, with our family as motivation. We've since found that family (and especially children) is exactly the motivation that drives many people who once had no interest in environmental issues to spontaneously turn green. For us, being green is as much a matter of family health as it is in the downstream effects to the environment.
