Hello Everyone,
First time posting. I have been living in Le Marche for the last four years with my wife and three children. Last September my wife had our 3 child here in Italy, it wasn't the best experiance of our lives. My wife "Maria" had been a health vistor for the last 20yrs in England and we had had our other two child born at home.
I would say that the health for mothers here in Italy is vastly behind England.
Anyway we are very into organic living and beleive that the world shouldnt suffer at our expense. We recycle and have a mall holding that allows us to live off the land.
When our child "Apollonia" was born we spent time to search for organic clothing so that we mimunised the risk of exposure to chemicals in the nappies and clothing. Well here in Le Marche there isn't any organic shops let alone washable nappies on sale.
After alot of hard work and help we have opened one of the first organic childrens shops in Italy if you have young children and need supplies look at our website. http://www.mariasorganicbabies.com. We would love to help other English mothers with young children in Italy.
