About Us

Smile, Mommy! Diaper Service was born in the summer of 2007 when Pippa Gore and Laura LeVasseur, both having and cloth diapering children of their own, recognized the need for a cloth diaper service. Experiencing the benefits of using cloth and equipped with the practical know how, these mothers wanted other families to realize that cloth is better for their babies.  Understanding the importance of convenience, the mothers wanted a diaper service that would enable the benefits of cloth yet have the convenience of disposables.
