Babywearing

This blog is all about babywearing! That’s right, you can actually “wear” your new baby on your body. There are so many different kinds of carriers on the market right now, and this is because of the amazing benefits of babywearing. You can go for walks, catch up around the house, not be nap-trapped in your chair, and your sweet bundle of joy will be snug and happy as a bug (usually). They like feeling close to a warm body, and having them in a carrier helps the entire family, even grandparents & babysitters can enjoy the perks! Here are some of the different carriers to choose from. We have heard from many partners and dads that it has helped them bond with baby! You can choose from wraps, slings, structured carriers, and many of them have newborn inserts/adjustable straps so you can wear your child(ren) as they grow. Here is an informative video about babywearing:
