Why are Bundleboo Wraps Superior to other Carriers?
What Exactly is Babywearing?
Babywearing is the practice of carrying a baby or child in a carrier close to your body. This also promotes bonding between the parent and child.

What are the advantages of a wrap style carrier?
There are many. First of all, wrap style carriers offer superior head, neck and spine support for your baby in comparison with many of the other carriers on the market. A wrap holds the child closely and securely to your body. This prevents extra movement of the carrier such as swinging or swaying that could be potentially unsafe. This closeness also increases bonding as it heightens the awareness between parent and child. Wrap carriers are well known for being the most comfortable style of carrier. This two shoulder carry method uses wide panels of fabric utilizing virtually all of the wearer’s back, shoulders, and hips to distribute the child’s weight. In addition, there is a tremendous amount of versatility due to multiple carrying positions. Your child will not “outgrow” the carrier in a few short months as with many other styles of carriers. You can easily carry newborns up to preschool age in a variety of positions.

Can I carry my newborn in it?
Yes. There is no minimum weight requirement. It offers superior head, neck, and spine support for your newborn. It can also offer protection from the sun since you can adjust the fabric panels around the baby to cover them. Bundleboo wraps help to recreate a womb like experience for your newborn making them feel safe and secure. Newborn hold, cradle carry, front cross wrap and burp carry are four ways that we suggest to carry your newborn or preemie in your Bundleboo.

Can I carry my toddler in it? What is the weight limit?
Yes. Babywearing isn’t just for babies. It can help to comfort an older child, especially if they need a little extra snuggle time or some extra TLC. It’s often just easier to carry your toddler as well, as opposed to chasing them down the aisles at the grocery store or hauling around a big bulky stroller. You can carry children up to about 35- 40 pounds. Hip position and any of the back positions are suggested for your toddler.

Can I breastfeed my baby while wearing him/her?
Yes, in fact there are 2 discrete, hands-free nursing positions (Cradle Carry and Front Cross Wrap). This also makes nursing in public easier and more convenient. Since Bundleboo is completely and easily adjustable to your unique body shape, YOU determine your child’s placement and positioning for this purpose.

Is it machine washable?
Yes. We recommend washing it in cold water, and you can even tumble dry on low.

What kind of fabric is it?
We use a 100% woven cotton. The fabric is sturdy, yet breathable. It doesn’t stretch and loose shape as many of the knits do

Is it hard to use?
There is a small learning curve but after you’ve done it a few times, you should be able to put your baby in any of the positions in under a minute. Bundleboo has truly cut the learning curve in half from traditional wrap carriers, making it far easier to master in a short period of time. Plus, there is an instructional DVD provided with each purchase demonstrating each of the positions. We are also available to answer any questions you may have. You had to learn how to tie your shoes and look how easy it is now! In all seriousness, it is worth the time investment.

Is it safe?
Yes. Babywearing has been used by women and men of many cultures from countries all over the world. This is a time tested and honored technique of carrying your child, used and perfected over thousands of years, and for far greater tasks than what modern day parents would ever need. Bundleboo has recognized the modern day need for additional safety, confidence and peace of mind. This is why we have given you the safety seat.

Will carrying my baby spoil him/her?
Absolutely not! Studies have shown that carrying your baby makes them feel safe and secure. Your baby has just spent 9 months being carried and nurtured by your body. It is only a natural progression from womb to babywearing. Babies that are carried often cry less, are more alert, content and happy. By creating a safe and secure environment, you will inevitably encourage independence. A child that is secure detaches from the parent faster and easier.
TOP
Is it comfortable?
Yes. Bundleboo wraps are made with wide, fabric panels to evenly distribute the weight of your baby over both of your shoulders, back and hips. This virtually eliminates back pain and pressure points common in strap or one shoulder carriers. In addition, it offers over 10 different carrying positions which will allow you the flexibility to find the most comfortable position for you and your baby

Why are there so many different carrying positions?
Few people have the need to learn and master all of the different positions. Don’t be intimidated. We want to offer you flexibility to find a style that suits you and your baby. Bundleboo wraps will help you to achieve carrying your baby in virtually any position you can imagine in a safe and comfortable way. There is no need to purchase more than 1 carrier in your child’s lifetime. Over time, you will inevitably find that the needs of you and/or your baby will change. Perhaps your child has special needs or requirements such as low muscle tone, physical handicaps, disabilities or special equipment. Bundleboo will adjust around these special needs that may otherwise limit or challenge you. Bundleboo gives you the freedom to decide what works best for you. You no longer have limited choices.
