I love baby carriers. I do not know how I would have got through parenting without one. The comfort and closeness it gives you with your baby is amazing. It is also perfect for convenience. Put a grumpy or crying baby in a sling and you can do what needs done. Ergobaby have the new Omni 360 and I could not be more of a fan. You can carry baby in any position. It is comfortable and easier on your back and hips than other baby carriers I have used. It is well designed and looks great too. To top it off, Ergobaby have a new limited-edition print range Flores, in collaboration with established designers French Bull NYC. It is so stylish and gorgeous. I am now a huge fan of Ergobaby and their baby carrier. So much so that it is the first product to receive the new Frost Magazine Gold Standard. The highest recommendation we can give.

Why Choose Babywearing?
Allowing parents to keep babies safe, comfortable and happily in close contact, babywearing has numerous physical and emotional benefits for babies’ development.
Babies are carried for nine months when parents are pregnant but when baby is born, it’s a whole new world for them. Luckily babywearing reinstates that closeness again, while also providing numerous benefits to development, both physically and emotionally. The first few months after birth is called the ‘fourth trimester’ – and for good reason, as little ones need parents more than ever as they make the transition into the world.
Babywearing allows parents to build a stronger bond between child and parent. The closeness stimulates a beneficial hormone production (Oxytocin), which results in a more intimate parental bond.
Babywearing also adds a whole new level of convenience – parents simply need place their little one in the carrier and go! This means parents can boost bonding anywhere, at anytime.
The Top 8 Benefits of Babywearing:
• Strengthens the bond between parent and baby, as you maintain a closeness throughout your day, especially during the ‘4th trimester’.
- Aids in baby’s development, both physically and emotionally – a carried baby is generally calmer thanks to all of her primal/survival needs being met.
- Allows breastfeeding to be done on the go, and discreetly too, if you want to be covered up. As an added bonus, breastmilk production is also boosted with close contact with baby.
- Allows parents or caregivers to be ‘hands-free’ while baby is in the carrier and promotes exploring, discovering and navigating safely and easily, without having to maneuver a stroller. Parents are able to #CarryOn exploring life’s adventures – big and small.
- Promotes early language development. Babies learn by watching faces and babywearing puts little one at conversational height.
- Allows parents to see more of the world through baby’s eyes. And babies get to discover their new world from the safety and comfort of their parents’ body.
- Fosters a closeness through toddlerhood. Toddlers can be worn too, reminding them of their ‘home base’, and allowing that bond to continue as they grow.
- Babywearing takes babies back to their safe place and reminds them that we are ‘home’. With babywearing, love carries on.
