Really great visual for keeping babies airways clear and open when carrying.

If your straps keep creeping up toward your neck, this is probably why 👀

Try pulling down first, then across for a much better fit.

Save this for your next carry 🤍
Hamilton mums — come get a fit check at our next meet-up!

Love seeing a dad babywearing!

One thing I often notice with dads is the waist belt sitting a bit too low. Women tend to have a natural waist, but for dads it can be trickier to know where the belt should go. The key is to wear it nice and high — especially with a little baby.

A good rule of thumb: baby should be close enough to kiss without you having to strain your neck.

You’re doing amazing, dads. Keep it up!

Baby Z decided a playground nap was on the cards today, so into the ring sling she went. I love how versatile this style of carrier is — perfect for quick ups and downs, and such a lifesaver in the summer heat.

Because it’s just one layer of breathable fabric, it keeps both of us comfortable, and once baby is old enough, you can carry slightly off to the side which helps reduce shared body heat even more. Such a simple, cool, and easy option for warm-weather babywearing. 🌿✨
