Description
What a pretty way to keep your baby snuggled to you. This fabric is a pretty cream white with pinks, blues, and browns in a floral pattern. Very stylish.

This sling measures approximately 85 inches from tip of rings to end of fabric (around 2.5 yards)long x about 27 inches wide. This is small enough to ensure that your newborn will not get lost in the fabric, but large enough that a 30 lb toddler can still ride comfortably.

Fabric is 100 percent cotton and is washable.

The shoulder is pleated nicely to decoratively provide a even distribution of your baby’s weight without bunching or cutting into your shoulder. The nylon rings are secured with nicely done double stitching along with a deco stich to ensure the security of your wee one. I ONLY use SlingRing rings which are specially designed for baby wearing and are designed to be lightweight and free of welds and tested to hold 250 lbs.


Please remember that learning to use a baby carrier is a little like riding a bicycle. It will take some time and practice to be able to quickly and easily place your child comfortably and securely inside. After a few tries, it will become second nature. The Ring Sling can be worn on either shoulder. Simply switch lefts and rights if you would like to wear the Sling on your left shoulder. To wear the Sling on your right shoulder:

1 Thread your Sling by passing the tail toward the center through both of the rings. Then, pass tail back over one ring and back through the other ring.

2 Hold the rings of the Sling with your right hand. Be sure the tail is in front of the loop.

3 Put your left arm through the loop and bring the Sling over your head.

4 Rest the rings high your right shoulder. As you securely tighten your child into the Ring Sling, the rings should end up over your collar bone. If the rings are too far up or down, it may make it uncomfortable to wear. The fabric should be spread over your shoulder evenly. This helps disperse the weight and will be more comfortable.

5 Open the pouch of the Ring Sling and carefully set your baby inside. While you support your baby's weight and head, pull on the tail to tighten the Sling. You can customize the fit of the Sling by pulling on one side of the tail to tighten one side of the pouch and pulling on the other side of the tail to tighten the other side of the pouch. Try to keep the outside hem seems on the edges of the fabric going through the ring. Once your baby is securely in the Sling start moving around. Your baby enjoys motion and this will help both of you get used to using your Sling.

6 As your baby gains weight, some feel you can minimize the strain on your back by wearing the rings lower and spreading the fabric across your shoulder. You will find what works for you.

Removing your baby from the Ring Sling

Lift and pull the top ring away from your body, loosening the Sling just enough to make it easy to remove your baby. This will preserve the customized fit that you have created so the next time you use your Sling, it can be tightened with a simple tug of the tail.

Using your Sling with Newborns: Whenever you place your newborn in your Sling, always support your baby's head until the Sling has been tightened enough to provide support. Newborns usually should lie down or use a tummy to tummy position in the Sling until they have head control. You may place your baby in the Sling with the head on either side. The cradle position is also excellent for nursing. As you nurse you can completely cover yourself by placing the tail of the Sling over your shoulder. Some newborns are happier in a tummy to tummy position. Your baby can be carried this way if you tighten the Sling enough to support your baby's head.

Newborn, Reclining, Nursing Positions: Pull one side of your Sling up against your chest to create a deep, secure pouch. Open the pouch with one hand and, while supporting your baby's head and weight, set your baby in with the head on either side. Continue to support your baby as you pull on one side of the tail to tighten the outer part of the pouch and the other to tighten the inner part. Please be sure to tighten the Sling sufficiently so that your baby is secure. Very young babies may seem all bunched up inside the Sling. Most babies are comfortable this way. If not, they will let you know. If you think your baby is lost down inside the Sling you can put a receiving blanket or small pillow in it before setting your baby inside.
Newborn Vertical Position: Carefully place your baby in the Ring Sling. The bottom of the fabric should cover your baby's bottom and the top of the fabric should cover your baby's head. Tighten the top of the fabric enough to support your baby's head. Tighten the bottom of the fabric to securely hold your baby in place. Babies may also be placed with their legs hanging out, provided the fabric of the Sling is securely placed under the child’s bottom, out to the knees.

Using your Sling with Older Babies: Once your baby has head control he/she will probably want to sit in the Sling so he/she can see. Your baby can sit in the Sling in several positions.

Kangaroo Carry: This position works best with younger babies who have head control. Put on your Sling and open the pouch as if you were planning to put your baby in lying down. Cross your baby's legs and place your baby in sitting up. While supporting your baby's weight, pull on the tail to tighten the Sling.

Front Carry: As your baby grows the Kangaroo Carry position may no longer be comfortable, but the front carry position will work well. Place your baby in the Sling facing sideways. Be sure the bottom fabric comes out to your child's knees. For a restless child, the top fabric should also cover your child's shoulders. Tighten the Sling until your child is secure.

Hip Carry: This is an excellent position for heavy toddlers because your hip is used to support your child's weight. Put your child in your Sling and rest your child on your hip with your child's legs straddling you. The bottom of the Sling should extend out to your child's knees. The top of the Sling should come up to your child's arms. If your child is restless, pull the top of the Sling over your child's arms. Tighten the Sling until your child is secure.

Back Carry: The Back Carry position is recommended for children who are at least one year old. Put your Sling on with the rings too high on your shoulder. You may want to start with them on or slightly behind your shoulder. Place your child in the Sling in the hip carry position with your child's arms covered. Carefully slide your baby around to your back. It is recommended that until you are used to this position you have a friend check your child's security. Please remember that with all brands baby slings your baby is not tied in. The back carry position should only be used with a cooperative child.

Please be careful!!!
As with all brands of sling and pouch type baby carriers, your child is not tied in.
Please pay attention to your child's security and movements.
