Which Caboo? Lite, Blend or Organic (2019 updated version!)

Since I compared the Caboo Lite, Plus and Organic back in 2016, Close Parent has revamped all three models with slightly different fabrics.  Much of what I wrote in the original article (which you can read here), is still true! But with a few very small changes!  So here is my new updated comparison, this … Continue reading Which Caboo? Lite, Blend or Organic (2019 updated version!)

Today Rachel turns 3 months old, marking the end of the 4th trimester.  As she leaves the newborn period behind, these were my favourite carriers to use with her during her newborn phase; 1.

What is a Caboo?

August 5, 2016February 10, 202113 Comments
