Cloth diapers. It’s a term that makes many new mothers cringe. The idea of dealing with washing and folding dozens of diapers and the risk of stabbing their own fingers while protecting their child’s mid-section from the business end of a safety pin doesn’t appeal to most.

Even those who look for environmentally-friendly ways of doing things hesitate to venture into the routine of their grandmother’s day.

But, a Tereson Dupuy, Broussard woman has brought cloth diapers into the 21st century with the addition of a polar fleece dryness liner, a built-in waterproof exterior and adjustable snaps to make diapering quick, easy and pain-free.

Her Fuzzi Bunz diapers appeal to many parents, including high-profile moms and dads in Hollywood and Nashville.

And her budding international business came about because of personal necessity.

When Dupuy’s son was a baby, disposable diapers weren’t an option.

“He has a skin condition – atopic dermatitis and eczema,” she said. “Putting disposable diapers on him caused so many problems – rashes and bleeding.”

She was obligated to use cloth diapers, but she didn’t like the hassle of safety pins and separate vinyl pants.

So, she invented something that combines the baby-friendly and environmentally-friendly characteristics of cloth diapers with the convenience of disposables.

Her invention, now about 10 years old, is known worldwide as Fuzzi Bunz.
