"From the time babies are born, they learn and grow through sensitive
communication with their environment. Physical touch transmits the whole
world from parent to baby, as well as providing deep healing and nourishment".
A quote by Joyce and Barry Vissell MD RN MS
The
BABA SLING was developed by an Australian mother
who is deeply committed to the benefits of "baby wearing".
She was inspired and supported by the many tribal
groups of the world who have been using slings for
centuries. Today, medical research is supporting this
wisdom:
"Baby wearing provides the exact amount of stimulation an infant requires
to develop muscle tone, increase cardiac output and circulation, promote
respiration and aid digestion
Infants experience a reduced rate of wind
and colic
Wearing babies creates children who feel secure and confident
in themselves, their parents, and their environment.
.Regular carrying
of babies produces "quiet alertness", where the baby peacefully and calmly
observes its surroundings without fussing or crying. One study found that
wearing babies reduced crying and fussiness by 43% during the day and 51%
at night
. "
Quotes from "Nuturing Magazine 1998 www.nuturing.ca
The BABA SLING is a simple device, which allows for comfortable
carrying for babies and infants up to 2 years. (Although
some people comfortably use it up to 4 years). Their
simple advantage is in the closeness they allow between
baby and parent. Because it is comfortable to hold
your baby close using the sling, you are likely to
have close contact with them more often, and for longer
periods compared with relying on your arms alone.
Babies can be carried in a number of positions: facing
away from, or toward the caregiver, on the hip, on
the back in a piggy-back position, reclining for easy
breast feeding and/or sleeping. Breastfeeding can
be performed simply (and discreetly) using the BABA
SLING. You can even carry twins comfortably by using
two slings - one on each shoulder.
The
BABA SLING is quick and easy to fit and remove,
and has shoulder padding with two, comfortable wide
straps for greater control over baby positioning.
The BABA SLING has a unique double strapping system
which allows you to adjust the exact positioning of
your baby in relation to your body, for closeness
and comfort.
They are made from 100% cotton in an extensive range of colour choices.
| TESTIMONIAL
"We are really happy with our sling, and Jaylen, our baby boy, absolutely
loves it. He is so peaceful whilst being worn in the sling. It beats the
traditional baby carriers by far, much more comfortable for both parent and
child".
Thanks, Chris. |
