The Benefits of Wearing Your Baby     

              
There are so many advantages to wearing your baby, along with the fact that it just makes life easier! Since there are too many to list we will share with you our favorites:

  • Carrying babies reduces crying and fussiness. A baby who is in a sling is feeling warmth, pleasure, and a oneness with its parent. 
  • When a baby is carried they share in your walking, talking, working, laughing and playing. What a great way to see and experience the world! By participating with their parent they develop their senses faster, cry less, learn more, and thrive better because they are less bored and more relaxed and secure.
  • A baby in a sling can nurse conveniently, easily and discreetly. 
  • A baby raised in a Over The Shoulder Baby Holder ™ needs to be carried less as they get older than their counterpart who was raised in mechanical devices. Sling babies are less clingy. This is because they are more secure, self reliant and confident. They give their parent cues that they want to be set down to crawl off and explore and play--rather than tugging on mommy's skirt or whining to be picked up.
  • Older siblings are more accepting and less jealous of a new arrival when it is carried in a sling. This is because mom is not "tied down" to the baby, and has her hands free so she can give attention to the other children.
