We don’t sell every type of product in our category, only those that can impact or optimize health.
We Only Sell Products That Support The Health Of People, The Animals And The Planet
So many products are sold that have ingredients that are actually harmful for pregnancy or children or harm their environment. Whether we’re sourcing supplements, Juvenile furniture or baby gear, ShopVitalChild’s first commitment is researching products that are sourced for the purity of their ingredients or their environmental impact. Our database of approved or harmful ingredients is likely the largest database of its kind maintained by any retailer. We meticulously use the database to inspect every single ingredient of thousands of products we carry before we allow it to be sold in our store. It takes us an exceptional amount of time to maintain our database and screen products but our mission of a better planet through optimizing children’s is at the core of all we do. We will likely always carry a smaller number of ingredients than other retailers based on our screening process..
What Makes Shopvitalchild A Different Kind Of Retailer - Three Criteria And Customer Service
• No Animal Cruelty: All of our products are required to be vegan. No animals can be harmed, tested or used in their creation. The preponderance of tens of thousands of published scientific studies consistently shows that what is good for animals is also best for human health and the health of the planet. Besides, we just love animals!
• No Harmful Ingredients: We maintain the largest ingredients database of any retailer. We use our database to meticulously screen for every single ingredient in all supplements or health and beauty products we carry. We won’t approve a product for sale until it has been through our rigorous process.
It would seem absurd to think that companies would sell products that are potentially harmful to the most sensitive groups, during pregnancy and childhood. Unfortunately, this is not the case or not even very often the case. We know because we are constantly declining products for ingredients known to be harmful during pregnancy or childhood. Further, we’ve seen products that have actually caused the death of children. The most prominent was around 2007 when deaths caused by cold and cough medicines in children under age 6 also showed "There's no evidence that they actually work” as stated by the American Academy of Pediatrics. Children’s cough medicines are still recalled to this day for overdose risk. We believe that ingredients that can easily cause overdose risk should not be sold. We very rarely carry any supplements with synthetic ingredients not because they lack efficacy but because we prefer plant based ingredients that are more easily recognized by the body and limit potential toxic risks of death or overdose which are more possible in synthetics.
• Non Toxic, Baby Safe And Sustainable Furniture or Baby Gear: We sell only the best eco-friendly certified juvenile furniture, baby gear and baby safe products available. Unintentional suffocation is the leading cause of injury and death among infants under age one according to Pediatrics, the journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics. So we look for juvenile furniture that is Greenguard Gold Certified which screens for over 10,000 toxins and 360 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which can lead to breathing issues or cancer. GreenGuard Gold certifications for baby’s and kids rooms are extremely strict furniture certifications. This helps limit indoor air pollution. Lung Disease and breathing issues which are the #1 causes of infant death. We also look for furniture manufacturers that use organic finishes or no chemicals in the production of their furniture. According to Scott Steady, product manager for indoor air quality at UL, the creator of GreenGuard Gold certification, “Kids are more susceptible to indoor air quality problems. They breathe more per body weight, so they get a bigger dose of whatever’s in the air.” Shopvitalchild also preferably sells solid wood products which helps prevent children from gnawing into the wood, which is more possible with soft wood. Wherever possible we source manufacturers who’ve developed sustainable practices, planting trees to replace the ones that were taken. Please look for certification symbols when purchasing products. We place them so you can determine what level of the highest standards of safety will benefit you and your family.
