What are the benefits of wearing a sling?

Babywearing in a sling first responds perfectly to the need for contact of infants in their first months of life by extending the bond with the mother. Cradled by the heartbeat that soothes him and reminds him of intrauterine life, the baby feels confident thanks to the contact, the smell and the voice of his mother (or his dad). This reassured your baby will be calmer.

The scarf is favorable for the baby and for the wearer

It has in fact been proven that babies carried in a sling cry less than others. The proximity between the baby and the carrier makes it possible in particular to respond more quickly to his needs. But the scarf is also beneficial for the wearer.

First of all, it has a very practical side. You have both hands free and can easily go about your business, take care of a second child, etc. Some mothers even breastfeed their babies in the sling out of sight.
