Green Baby/Toddler Event #3; Organic Baby Carrier Giveaway CLOSED
July 3, 2010 | Filled Under Attached Parenting, Green Baby/Toddler Event, Green Giveaways
Earlier today I featured one moms journey with babywearing, which showcases a mom of 5 who has carried all of her babies. She talks about different types of baby carriers and what she personally likes about each. I too, have carried my babies and have enjoyed every minute. My youngest is just 9 months old and he is still attached in a carrier about 50% of the time.
Since this week was the kick off of the Green Baby/Toddler Event, there is no better way to celebrate the benefits of babywearing (for mom and baby) than giving away a baby carrier to a lucky mom, mom-to-be, dad or grandparent! The benefits of wearing a baby are not limited to just a healthy emotional bonding experience, but also a convenience for the caregiver too!
Let me introduce you to the Organic Sleepy Wrap
Back in March I was given the opportunity to review an Organic Sleepy Wrap carrier (see my review here), and have been using it since. It is now my favorite carrier out of them all. And trust me when I tell you I have tested and tried many baby slings, wraps and carriers over the last 9 years.
The Organic Sleepy Wrap is available in three fabric colors, black, khaki, and natural and sells for $59.99. It’s an excellent investment for anyone who wants to wear their babies and a great gift for a mom to be.
“NAP, Inc.’s mission is to provide comfortable and durable baby carriers to parents throughout the world and give them a helping hand in raising confident, joyful and compassionate children.We hope to enhance the bond between mother and child by enabling both to be close and connected to each other in a practical yet magical sort of way.”
12 Reasons The Sleepy Wrap Rocks:
- Gives great support for little heads and necks -especially when your baby falls asleep
- Custom fit- simply tie the wrap carrier snug against your body and no matter what body type you are, it will fit!
- Discreet nursing is no problem -no need to take the baby out of the wrap baby carrier or use any special attachments for privacy
- Your baby’s hips and legs are supported and not just hanging down
- No pressure points on your baby -no pressure on developing hips or spines like other hard baby carriers which place pressure on your baby’s pelvis
- Holds your baby high -the fabric bounces back unlike the t-shirt like material of other stretchy baby wraps to keep your baby snug against your chest
- Durable -sturdy fabric that doesn’t stretch out or change shape with repeated washing or babywearing
- Grows with you and your baby -it’s optimal for infants yet you may continue to carry your baby with this wrap baby carrier as long as you are both comfortable
- Bilateral -wide straps over both shoulders so that there is no lopsided feeling like with babywearing in a sling
- No time limit to how long your baby can stay in the wrap -there are no pressure points on mom or baby so you may carry your baby as long as you and your baby are comfortable
- Evenly distributes the weight of your baby-much more supported than carrying with your arms, on one shoulder, or your hip
- Natural sleep solution -no plastic, no music, no bouncy seat-just you- calming and soothing your baby with your warmth, your voice, your scent, your movement and your heartbeat. There is no more natural way to put your baby to sleep.
NAP, Inc. wants to share the benefits of babywearing with a lucky GoGreenStreet.com reader and has offered to give one away!
