I am looking for cloth diapers too. I used them with my daughter when she was a baby. Not only is it better for the environment, it is also better for the baby (less diaper rash and much softer). I question how good for the environment it is to burn the plastic that disposable diapers use. Anyway, we used prefolds when she was a newbie (the white cloth ones that you fold and cover) and when she got older we used Fuzzi Bunz because it was easier to tackle a moving target when they didn't have to lie down.

The brand someone else mentioned is Bum Genius and I've heard good things about them as well.

I did see a starter kit at the store that had that huge reorg sale in Oct and it had enough to diaper a newborn. I would think that most of the baby stores have some sort of selection. In the US, you can get prefolds at the Babies R Us but I looked at the Toys R Us in Dietlikon and didn't see any.

Oh, and prefolds make fantastic cleaning cloths when baby is done with them.
