Baby Slings

Ever thought of wearing your baby in a sling? Really, it's not as strange as it sounds -- in fact many people believe baby slings are highly beneficial to both parent and child, providing closeness, comfort, and a comfortable way to keep baby close by.

There are several different versions of the baby sling available at Natural Mother, one of the most popular being the Maya Wrap Baby Slings (the first one pictured above). The Maya sling comes in a variety of fabric patterns, all 100% cotton and hand-loomed.

At Natural Mother, the Maya Wrap Sling also comes with an instructional video or DVD -- the wrap is so versatile, it can be used from infancy through toddler just by adjusting the way it is used.

Maya also offers the "pouch sling" (or "tube sling") and other makers have created padded slings and an organic cotton sling which are also available at Natural Mother.
