Wraps

A wrap is simply a long piece of cloth that can be used in a variety of positions to carry your baby from the earliest newborn days through the toddler to preschooler phase. Stretchy wraps are great starter wraps for newborns and young babies and perfect for baby shower gifts. They're made of soft cotton with a bit of stretch, and can easily be shared between parents and caregivers of different sizes.

Although the long length of cloth may seem intimidating at first, learning to use a stretchy wrap is surprisingly easy. You don't need an advanced degree in origami! The basic carry is simple to master with a bit of practice, It's versatile, too -- in the basic carry, baby can go forward facing in or out, legs tucked in or out, or even in a semi-reclined cradle position. One of the best things about a stretchy wrap is that you can tie it on in the morning and pop baby in and out all day for diaper changes, nursing or feeding, or getting into and out of the car.

Babies love the comfort of being swaddled and held close. It's very soothing for a baby to be snuggled up to the parent's body, where baby can hear and feel the parent's voice, breathing, and heartbeat. Parents love the fact that they have both hands free and that baby's weight is ergonomically distributed across both shoulders, the back, and the torso. Mamas often tell me that wearing their baby in a stretchy wrap is like being pregnant again -- baby is close and safe, where you can rub her little back, plus, you get to kiss the top of her sweet little head.

QuirkyBaby stocks two types of stretchy wraps that even novice babywearers will find simple and versatile: Moby Wrap stretchy wraps, for newborns through 20 pounds in front carries, and Wrapsody Bali Baby Stretch, a hybrid between a stretch and a woven wrap that will work for newborns through 35 pounds in front, back, and hip carries. Both are easy to learn to use with a little practice and come with excellent instructions.
