You may be surprised to know that even though I am a huge essential oils advocate and have thoroughly researched the industry, I have never used Young Living essential oils.
This is a sponsored post by Plant Therapy, a company that I believe provides the highest quality essential oils at a price that makes their health benefits affordable for everyone. All opinions in this post are my own.
You may not know this about me, but before having my children, I worked as a molecular biologist. I first worked at Dartmouth College doing cancer research and then at Sanofi Pasteur researching new vaccines.
Although I haven’t been in a lab since 2008, my biology degree has definitely not gone to waste. It’s put to use in almost every decision I make for my family (and myself). One of those decisions included the use of essential oils.
I’ve been using essential oils for years now. I absolutely LOVE and believe in the many wonderful natural health benefits they provide.
I use oils in homemade cleaners and beauty products, apply them topically, and diffuse them around our home.
Probably my best character flaw (haha!) is that I research things until they can’t be researched any more. You can see then that my choice of the best essential oils to use was also thoroughly researched…especially since these products would be used around my family every day.
You may be surprised to know that even though I am a huge essential oil advocate and have thoroughly researched the industry, I have never used Young Living essential oils. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying there is anything wrong with Young Living or it’s company model…I’ve simply found another essential oil company that meets all of my needs and have never looked back.
That company is Plant Therapy.
What Makes Plant Therapy Essential Oils the Best?
Everyone wants the purest and highest quality essential oils available. Right? So what separates Plant Therapy from the other essential oil companies in the industry?
Plant Therapy is a small, family-owned company that prides itself on providing the highest quality essential oils at an amazingly affordable price. But for Plant Therapy it’s about more than just selling the highest quality essential oils…
“Our ultimate goal is not to be the largest essential oil company; it is to positively impact the lives of as many people as humanly possible. Ultimately, I feel this is possible only by providing our customers with an exceptional experience that keeps them coming back. By selling such a high quality product at an affordable price, we not only positively affect the lives of our customers, it also gives us the financial means by which we can help those who are less fortunate to live a happier, healthier, and more productive life.”
ā Chris Jones, President of Plant Therapy Inc.
If you are thinking about trying essential oils or are just curious about another company’s products, I wholeheartedly endorse Plant Therapy. I definitely recommend checking them out…I think you’ll be impressed with what you find too š
KidSafeĀ® Essential Oils for Children
Some of my favorite Plant Therapy products are the KidSafeĀ® essential oils for kids.
Back in 2011, as the company grew it was quite evident that the essential oil industry was neglecting one very important group of people: children. That is how the first-ever line of essential oils specifically for children, KidSafeĀ®, was developed.
With young ones of their own, the Plant Therapy team were firm believers that essential oils could have tremendous benefits for kids. Yet, there were no products on the market formulated especially for children.
No other company had accepted this challenge, but Plant Therapy was confident that their commitment to quality would allow them to succeed.
Because absolute safety was of utmost importance, the worldās foremost expert on essential oil safety, Robert Tisserand, was tasked to create the KidSafeĀ® line. The level of research, testing and quality assurance that is put into developing the KidSafeĀ® line is unparalleled in the industry.
Created specifically for children ages 2ā10, KidSafeĀ® features a variety of synergies and single oils targeted toward specific issues and ailments common in this age range. All synergies (there are 21 of them now!) are available as 100% pure, undiluted essential oils as well as pre-diluted roll-ons. Each KidSafeĀ® oil also has a KidSafeĀ® stamp on it making it easier for customers to shop for essential oils that are safe to use on their children.
And not only are the oils 100% safe for children, they are effective too! As great as the KidSafeĀ® synergies are for children, they are just as effective for adults. That’s because KidSafeĀ® oils are full-strength; they are just made with oils that are safe for our little ones.
If you are looking for essential oils to use on your kids, there is simply no comparable product available on the market today!

I love essential oils and the positive changes they have made in my life! Would love to try these oils for kiddos for my sons! My youngest is on the autism spectrum and I like using things like oils to help his moods!
Saving by Design says
I definitely use them to help with my kiddos’ moods too! Good luck! š
Megan Naramore Harris says
We are very new to oils! My daughters Coach uses oregano oil everytime she is ill and it has reduced her amount of down time. We are trying to use more natural remedies, like oils, but I’m for sure still learning!
Saving by Design says
I think you’re going to love using oils Megan! I’ve been using them in all of my homemade household products for years and can’t get over how well they work and smell too! And you’re right…there is a lot to learn! Good luck š
Ashley C says
I love Plant Therapy! I have used a few from their kids line but haven’t tried all of them yet š

Kelly Faro says
I love Plant Therapy oils!!! My favorite is the new Ear Ease blend.

Oh, I haven’t tried that one yet. I just checked it out and it looks great! Thankfully we haven’t had many ear problems, but I’ll have to add that one to my next order so we’re prepared in case we do! Good luck š
Marian Sulewski says
So excited to try the essential oils. I ordered a diffuser and a couple of oils and can’t wait until they arrive.
Saving by Design says
I think you’re going to LOVE them!! Good luck š
ArtsyChaos says
I’m liking that these are clearly marked as to what ailment/problem the oils are for. Too many times it’s just overwhelming to figure out which ones are used for what and I give up. Love the kid friendly names too, like Immune Boom!

New to essential oils, I’ve been checking out books from the library for a couple months, but have yet to purchase. Love idea of these starter packs.

Rachel Marie Travis says
I had never heard of PT oils before reading your post! I am having a baby soon, once he’s old enough I’ll definitely need to look into these!! Thanks for your information š
Saving by Design says
You’re very welcome and congratulations! I love using them in my homemade cleaners too…that’s where I started my oil adventure. I didn’t want the kids (and pets) on the floor with all those chemicals. Vinegar, water, and a few drops of lemon or tea tree oil are all you need to clean just about anything! Good luck š
Melanie says
Have just recently been introduced to essential oils and would love to try these for my kids. Still learning all the positive things they can do for your health. Thanks for the recommendation of Plant Therapy, sounds like a great company that I would love to do business with!

Brigid OHara Koshko says
I have heard so many good things about essential oils but haven’t had the opportunity to research the benefits. I will try to add this to our budget because I love what I am hearing.
Laura Kohr says
Plant therapy is really awesome, because they make it easy to do your own research. They have recipes and a spreadsheet on what the benefits of different oils are and how to use them.
Saving by Design says
I love those sheets too Laura!! Good luck š
Saving by Design says
I think you’ll really like them! And Plant Therapy makes it so easy to fit into your budget with their great pricing and free shipping. Good luck š
Elizabeth says
Interesting. You hear so much from each person selling a product it makes for skeptical about all of it.
Saving by Design says
I know what you mean…if nothing else, you’ll enjoy adding a little lemon oil to some vinegar and water to have sparkling clean floors! And at Plant Therapy’s prices, you really have nothing to lose. Good luck š
Sheri says

Very interesting read. I have not used essential oils because of safety concerns around kids.

I love essential oils but have been using them less and less because I am not confident in what is safe to use with my young children. I have never used Plant Therapy brand before but really appreciate their dedication to safety and how easy they make it for conusmers to know what is safe to use on/around children!
