Boba X review

Adjustability and longevity - if I had to describe this carrier in just two words they would be it, because this carrier has both in spades.  Many carriers on the market advertise birth till 4, but few actually really cover that whole range.  The Boba X is probably one of the very few that reallyContinueContinue reading "Boba X review"

Manduca First Review

We bought our Manduca 3.5 years ago when our son was 5 months old, and used it practically everyday for the next 2.5 years until he turned 3.

Stretchies! Aren't they all the same?

I love stretchy wraps for the newborn period.  Despite owning slings of all types and styles the humble stretchy wrap is still my go to for my newborn.  But there are so many brands and at first look they all look the same - just a long piece of stretchy material! But there are differences...ContinueContinue reading "Stretchies! Aren't they all the same?"

Toddler Connecta Review

For me, Connecta Baby carriers are really quite different. Most other buckle carriers in the library are pretty similar in terms of construction. Sure they all have different bells and whistles and all fit slightly differently because of different strap placements, shaping and contouring of the waist belt, straps and carrier body. But really theyContinueContinue reading "Toddler Connecta Review"

Hana Baby Wrap Review

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dvv--AeEE7g I love stretchy wraps for the newborn stage, they are so snuggley, soft and comforting during that 4th trimester period. And of all the stretchy wraps I have ever tried, the organic Hana Baby Wrap is one of my absolute favourites.  I hadn't heard of it when my son Tom was born but itContinueContinue reading "Hana Baby Wrap Review"

Moby Aria Review (Updated!)

I originally reviewed the Moby Aria shortly after it came out in May 2015. I have included that review below, and as you will see I really liked it. But a year and a bit later as a library carrier, the Moby Aria has not weathered well at all. While I still really like manyContinueContinue reading "Moby Aria Review (Updated!)"

Which Caboo? Plus, Organic or Lite/NCT?

One of the questions I am asked most frequently asked is “What is the difference between the  Caboo+ Organic and the NCT Caboo?”  Usually, I bite my tongue to stop myself replying "about £15".  Because of course that would be crass! And not particularly helpful as there are a number of differences.  And to makeContinueContinue reading "Which Caboo? Plus, Organic or Lite/NCT?"

Moby Wrap Review

The first carrier I ever bought was a Moby wrap.  Before my son was born I asked around all my friends, I went to a sling library to learn about all the different types of baby carriers and came to the conclusion I should get a stretchy wrap.  This was absolutely the right choice forContinueContinue reading "Moby Wrap Review"
