Diapers.com Wants To Make America Sleep Again
E-commerce company rallies parents against Daylight Saving Time with petition and Survival Kit to help sleep-challenged families
JERSEY CITY, N.J., Oct. 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- There's a movement happening at Diapers.com. No...not that kind of movement. This one involves Parents Against Daylight Saving Time, and angry moms and dads are telling DST to stick it where the sun…well, you know.
At www.diapers.com/PADST, parents can sign a petition to take a stand against DST, which already has thousands of signatures (and hilarious comments). Diapers.com also offers a curated Survival Kit featuring comfy sleep sacks and bedding to combat the effects of the time change, white noise machines and blackout curtains to lull baby back to sleep, and coping mechanisms (coffee) for when all else fails.
At 2 a.m. on Sunday, November 1, clocks will "fall back" to 1 a.m., and countless non-parents will talk about "getting an extra hour of sleep." Moms and dads of babies and toddlers, however, know that nothing could be further from the truth. The early-morning wakeup cries will, for example, now come at 4 a.m. instead of 5 a.m. Parents will have lost hours of sleep, compared to the rest of the population – and the adjustment period can last for days.
"I have an eight month old daughter who is finally in a good sleep rhythm which means we are too," said CEO and new mom Emilie Arel Scott, "and now everything is going to change again. At Diapers.com, we totally get what moms are going through, and we're doing everything we can to make life a little easier."
