Baby Wearing

In the hospital it is

called "Kangaroo Care".

And then continued

at home with mom and dad.

   Baby "wearing" - often called "Kangaroo Care" is really "Biological Nurturing®" carried forward .... something human mothers have done from the very beginning of time. Why?  Because babies cry less and feed better when they are in close body contact (worn) by a parent or other close care giver.  

Baby wearing should begin - in the hospital~ Skin-to-Skin ~ as often as possible and then continued at home.    

   Once home, fathers find that they love to wear their babies and that it promotes attachment and bonding with their little ones.  AND.....gives mom a much-needed break.  

   Mothers find that they are more mobile when wearing their babies and find it much easier to care for other children when they have both hands free.  Most parents find that adjustable soft baby wraps or special "pocketed" shirts work best.  The soft fabric adjustable wraps do just that.....they adjust for the growing baby  -  up to a few years old!
