Best diaper service?
We are due in early November and trying to find a good and reliable diaper service — preferably one that can offer us compostable & cloth diapers — that serves Oakland. Has anyone had good experiences with a diaper service in the Bay Area? Are there services that you like that provide all cloth or all compostable diapers? Thank you!

I have not used them yet (baby due in October), but have heard good things about Tiny Tots in Campbell (they cover the whole Bay Area though). I actually couldn't find another service that did both cloth and compost. Other folks may know more than me though!
Tiny tots diaper service has both compostable and prefold diaper service. Earth Baby (which we use now) has only compostable diapers. Tidee Didee offers only prefolds. I used all 3 services and stopped on compostable for daycare and wash my own cloth diapers at home. I think all services are basically the same only their online stores are different. If you get a referral you can get a free pack of diapers from Earth Baby. If you start with one service on your registry think about low start-up costs and flexibility b/c you will have paid at least one month increment.
I have lots of opinions about cloth and compostable diaper services b/c diapering is full of waste and yuck. Making it green and fun (with cloth) is just better.
Earth Baby composting diaper service! They serve Oakland/Bay Area. We used it for our son and it is amazing - zero landfill waste, zero. Wipes, diapers, their packaging and the bags are all composted commercially and become saleable compost in 14 weeks. Excellent responsive customer service. It will cost you more than buying the giant boxes of disposables, but if not adding thousands of disposable diapers and that human waste into landfill is a priority for you, I highly recommend Earth Baby. For our household it was so worth it. Check out their free trial. https://earthbaby.deliverybizpro.com/p-35-how-it-works.html
We have been very happy with Earth Baby, a compostable diaper service. Their diapers are not strong enough for overnight use, but otherwise they are great!
