KangaWrap - Review & Giveaway

Win a KangaWrap Baby Wrap!

When I had Alfie I found a baby carrier so useful, we used it so much, especially when we were away on holiday, it was such a convenient and handy thing to have to be able to not worry about putting baby in the pram. The carrier we had however I did find quite uncomfortable to wear and struggled to get the positioning correct. When Elarna was born I decided to try another brand but really didn't get on with this particular brand and it never felt safe. I stopped baby-wearing for a while as I didn't know which brand to try next until I was offered a KangaWrap to try. I had heard of this brand previously and loved how comfortable they looked so was more than happy to try one out. I love the ethos behind the KangaWrap (non for profit organisation, more info towards end of post) and love the idea of having Elarna close to me for as long as I can.

When the KangaWrap arrived I immediately set to researching how to wear it. Initially if you are quite new to baby-wearing the huge length of fabric can be a little scary but once you learn how to put the wrap on (definitely follow the video guide as well as written instructions) it really is quite simple. What I love about this wrap is just how comfy it is and that it looks lovely when worn, the fabric is so soft to touch and it really is a fab wrap to try (and lucky for my readers that there is a giveaway to win one!). I sadly have no decent pictures of me wearing it but there are some below that have kindly been supplied by KangaWrap to give you an idea what they look like when worn.

KangWrap have also kindly included a little more information regarding the item, please do have a read:

Carrying your baby is an essential part of ensuring it’s healthy development, however, as a busy mum or dad you’ll know that there are a million and one chores and tasks where you need both hands! This is where baby slings come in, they allow you to carry your baby throughout the day and still get on with your day to day duties.

Not only is this convenient but this form of kangaroo care allows your baby to experience so much more of the world around them which helps them to learn and also develop social skills very quickly.

  1. I had a wrap with Taylor but she was a bit of an unsettled baby, so it didn't always work for us. But on the odd day it was a godsend as I was able to get a few jobs done around the house whilst carrying her around with me. This looks like a great product and I love the company ethos x #bestandworst
