We help you choose a baby sling

Need some help choosing your wraparound sling? Just email us and we'll be happy to assist you.

Sarah asked: "Could you help me choose - I want to be able to wear it inside the house and out - my baby is coming in feburary. I would like my partner to be able to use it as well I am a size 10 5ft tall he has a slim build and is 5ft 10."

It depends on where you live and your lifestyle.

If you are very outdoor people, then I would choose the micro fleece and only wear a T shirt and keep the baby lightly dressed inside the house.
If not, then you could be more comfortable with a Cool Gauze wrap: they are nice and light, so you would wear it like a shirt when you're inside the house and add jerseys and coats ontop when you're outside. Choose a large jacket that goes around you two. Or invest in a baby wearing coat.

Another thing to consider, if you live in a house fairly warm in winter, a Cool Gauze would be more comfortable. On the other hand, if you live in a house that tends to be quite cold, you might prefer the micro fleece.

The micro fleece wraparound sling is one size and for the cotton wraps, Size Medium would be best for both of you.

New Candy Stripes Baby Sling



Our newest wraparound sling has landed. A limited edition of the designer micro fleece: Candy Stripes.
We love the way the funky panel brightens up the navy background.
