New Designs Coming Soon!

I have been designing a couple new carriers with your comments in mind. I still believe that the pouch sling is the easiest and simplest carrier, so it will be sticking around for a few more years. Be sure to check out the new fabric samples from the Echino line, richly dyed, beautiful modern patterns.Though I have already stitched a few of its kind, soon the bamboo wrap will debut on the website! And a bit further down the road, I have sketches and a vision of a soft-structured carrier for you ladies with heavier babies/toddlers. I am thinking organic cotton canvas and echino panel on the front.
Sizing Available Soon
I will be coming up with a sizing chart soon, so check back soon if you are in the market for a sling.
Video Volunteers
I am looking for some ladies to help me create some youtube videos to link with this site. I would like to have an example of all types of carrying positions. If you have a particular favorite and would like to help, please drop me an email! THANKS!
Babywearing Safety Concerns
I have failed to speak out publicly about the recent sling accidents partly because it would sound like I have a vested interest in claiming that baby wearing is safe, but MOSTLY, I have stayed away from it purely out of respect for the families that lost children. I didn't somehow want to sound like I believe that the parents made any mistakes. It is the completely the responsibility of the manufacturers to create safe products, and for the public to speak out when they notice design flaws. That is the beauty of a small business, they can listen to your concerns and try to create designs with YOU in mind. I still fundamentally back baby-wearing, and will help to promote many baby-wearing type businesses that are making quality products, promoting attachment as their main focus.

I am also committed to creating safety videos, before I start accepting wholesale orders. Check back soon for more information on carrying positions.

I am also going to start posting links that offer "pro-baby-wearing" information in this still ongoing public discussion on sling safety. I think we have all heard plenty of negative, scare-type pieces in the news lately. You might have to copy link and paste into your browser.
