Babywearing is one of the oldest and most widely accepted
parental practices in the world. Many highly acclaimed
pediatricians have identified that babywearing is a good
practice for little ones and provides benefits that unslinged
babies do not receive.
For instance, a team off pediatricians in 1986 from Montreal
concluded that babies who are carried in slings cry at least 40
percent less than those babies who are unslinged. To most moms,
that’s reason enough to purchase a baby sling! The study also
showed that babywearing helped reduce colic in infants as well.
Research also shows that babies worn in slings show more
alertness, both visual and auditory, and absorb information much
quicker. Because your baby is close to you when worn in a sling,
he or she is not scared by loud noises, thus allowing them to
absorb more sights and sounds around them. Babywearing also
helps promote speech development, as babies are exposed to more
conversations and sounds when held closely to their parents.
Another reason to consider babywearing is that your sweet little
baby spent the first nine months of his or her life in your
womb, and a baby sling closely mimics the feeling of being
inside mom’s tummy. Your baby will feel safe and secure in your
baby carrier, and it will promote a bond between parent and
baby.
Lastly, using a baby sling or carrier can simply make life
easier for you and your baby. It is a convenient way to
breastfeed while caring for an older child, working or getting
chores done around the house. It also is a great way to snuggle
babies that liked to be held frequently, but it frees your hands
to complete other tasks.
Choosing the Right Sling or Carrier:
At Pure and Honest Kids, we offer two wonderful slings and
carriers for our customers.
Polkadot Papoose
The Polkadot Papoose is truly a baby sling for a modern mom. It
is equally stylish and practical. It was designed by a freelance
babywear designer with a vision for a product that would capture
the hearts of sensible-yet-fashionable moms everywhere.
With a Polkadot Papoose, you take your measurements to be sure
of a perfect fit. The folks at Polkadot Papoose know the
importance of a correct fitting sling, and they want to make
sure they get it right. To determine the correct size, measure
from your shoulder to the opposite hipbone with a soft tape
measure. Here’s a helpful tip- your sling measurement will
usually correspond to your t-shirt size. Then simply order your
size accordingly.
The Polkadot Papoose is 100 percent cotton, reversible and hand
crafted. It comes with a binkie pocket, so you’ll always be sure
to have that all important binkie readily available!
The Polkadot Papoose offers a wide variety of designer fabrics
to suit almost any taste. At Pure and Honest Kids, we offer the
following patterns: Elisa, Melanie, Sayuri, and Scarlett.
Another great feature about the Polkadot Papoose slings? A
portion of every sale is
donated to Project Rescue, a charity which fights human
trafficking and child exploitation in urban centers around the
world.
The Polkadot Papoose is available at Pure and Honest Kids for
$64.00.
PortaMee Baby Carrier
Another great carrier offered at Pure and Honest Kids is the
PortaMee Carrier. Chic and easy to use, this awesome baby
carrier is essential for active parents and busy caregivers.
PortaMee is the exclusive baby carrier with ergonomic lumbar
support to reduce back fatigue and discomfort. The side carrier
allows caregivers the ability to maintain eye contact with your
child, which will increase bonding.
The baby carrier by PortaMee is hands-free, stylish and
constructed with fine fabrics with pockets for just about
everything - your mobile devices, wallet, diapers and insulated
detachable bottle holder. Leave your diaper bag at home when
carrying your baby in a PortaMee Carrier and be truly hands
free!
The carrier not only looks stylish, but it is very comfortable
to wear and is well constructed. With a gel padded adjustable
shoulder strap and waist straps, toy hook, and so much more,
this baby carrier ultimately considers you and your child's
comfort and safety first.
This carrier is designed for babies that can hold their head up
unassisted and weigh between 15 - 35 lbs. While most carriers
and slings are made for newborn babies only, the PortaMee
Carrier is the next step. There is enough lumbar support in the
PortaMee Carrier to hold your sweet toddlers, too. Also
important to note, if you purchase a PortaMee Infant Headrest,
also available at Pure and Honest Kids, babies as small as eight
pounds (six weeks or older) can be carried in the PortaMee
Carrier.
The PortaMee is made of a high quality nylon rainwear for the
exterior and a soft micro-suede for the interior. Pure and
Honest Kids offers the black carrier, as well as the brown and
pink combination carrier.
The PortaMee Carrier is available at Pure and Honest Kids for
$175.00.
