Start babywearing with this versatile baby carrier


Parenting gurus and child development psychologists highly recommend babywearing for a number of reasons. The most highlighted benefit is that it helps in strengthening the bond between the parent and the child. Other definite advantages are that sling kids tend to cry less often and learn more.

If you are anything like me, however, a baby carrier really saves the day in instances where a regular stroller won’t be an option for instance, when using public transport such as trams, buses, trains and even in airplanes.

Whatever your reasons for getting a baby carrier, Ergobaby - a Los Angeles based company- recently unveiled their latest model; the Omni 360 and moms (and dads too!) can’t stop raving about it.
