Becky is our seamstress Carol’s daughter-in-law, and Jason is Carol’s grandson.  Carol makes nearly every Slinglings baby sling that we sell!  I’m so happy that her grandson is a slingling :)  His older sister, Kaylee, was a  slingling as well.

A customer wanted to see a picture of a “mariposa” baby sling being worn:

Why is everyone wearing unpadded slings in your photos?

or

Why can’t I see the padding in the photos?

or

I can’t decide between a padded and unpadded sling.

or

I’m petite, I don’t want the padding to overwhelm me.

or

I’ve used a padded ring sling in the past, I hated it.

“My sister bought me a Slinglings Baby Sling, and it is the best! Bronwyn (9
months) loves to sit with me while I do chores, and she’s easy to
rock to sleep when she gets fussy. Everyone compliments me on how
cozy and comfortable she looks in her sling. I just ordered three
more for friends. It’s now my shower gift of choice.
Thanks so much,

“Hi,
I just wanted to take a moment out of my day and let you know that I LOVE,LOVE,LOVE my baby slings. I use them all the time and we are so happy with them. I have a least nine other carriers and this is by far my favorite sling. I have decided to sell some of my other carriers as they won’t be getting much use now. My friend borrowed one of the three slings I ordered and loves it so much she won’t give it back! Good thing I have 2 more!

Thanks for a great product and fabulous customer service. I will spread the word about your great company.
Sincerely,
Laura”

Daddies wear baby slings too, and this one has perfect technique! Look at how the baby’s bottom is deep in the sling, with knees higher than bottom, the edge of the sling is in the bend behind the baby’s knees, and the fabric is spread all the way to the baby’s shoulders.  This baby is about 9 months old and has been a Slingling since birth!

“Dear Sara,

My 9 month old has been in your slings since she came home from the hospital and recently my husband has started using them as well. Here is a picture of my slingling girl and her daddy!

Thanks for making such a great product!

Ps. We were recently in an airport and about 4 different people ran us down to ask where we got our sling and we of course gave them your website!”

“Hello Sara and crew!

My daughter, Katie, and I LOVE our new Slinglings Baby Sling! She practically lives in it!

I wanted to offer two thoughts on helping new Slingling moms and dads get the hang of slinging. First, I would suggest encouraging new Slingling moms/dads to try utilizing the Slingling everyday for a one-week straight. For us, I promised myself that we would try it everyday for a week! Even though the first few days were a little frustrating, toward the end of the week, we finally got the hang of it and now use the Slingling everyday without a hitch. Second, I would suggest encouraging new Slingling moms/dads to use a mirror when they are learning to get the baby positioned correctly in the beginning. It made all the difference for us getting settled into the right position. I’ve attached a fun picture of Katie and me to this e-mail! Thanks again for the awesome awesome product! We love it!
