Most people remember Kellie Martin for her portrayl of the daughter on Life Goes On (though there were many devoted fans to both her series Christy on CBS and her stint on ER), so it may be a jump to think of her not as a socially-awkward teen but a woman with a child of her own. But Martin is now the proud parent of a two-year old girl and one of the developments that has come with motherhood is a renewed commitment to going green (a trend we’ve mentioned regarding fellow mom Jessica Alba). Martin is working to one day have everything that fills her daughter’s room or touches her daughter’s skin be free of toxic chemicals, and one of the ways she’s setting to work is by favoring eco-friendly, natural products over conventional alternatives. Martin is dressing daughter Margaret in organic cotton clothing, applying natural baby skin care products and handing over wooden toys for playtime.

When it comes to baby bottles, Martin is avoiding traditional offerings, which sometimes contain the chemical BPA, a toxic compound found to leach out of plastics that is now banned in certain countries. Instead, she’s using Born Free Baby Bottles, which contain no BPA and feature all the technology of their conventional counterparts (things like inner valves and air vents to reduce the risk of Middle Ear Infection). Made from a Swiss-made plastic and dishwasher safe, Born Free bottles give Martin the option of bottle feeding without the risks of harmful chemicals and help her move from Life Goes On to life goes green.
