Baby wraps for newborns

A stretchy wrap is tied once in advance. After that, you can put your baby in and take them out as often as you like without retying it. After two or three practice runs, the routine sits. Newborns in particular love the snug, even hold, and the fabric spreads the weight comfortably across your back and shoulders.

What to look out for when tying

Your baby sits in the M position: knees higher than bottom, back gently rounded. The head is close enough to kiss, and nose and mouth stay free. Tighten the wrap strand by strand so your baby does not slump.

Our range

All wraps in this collection are by Little Wombat and are made from a cotton and modal blend. You can choose from Siena, Forest Green, Dusty Olive, Sand, Warm Taupe, Brownie and Golden Pecan. Once your child is older and sits up unaided, a hip carrier is handy for short distances. You will find an overview of all options under baby carriers, and if you are still planning your baby kit, our newborn essentials checklist will help.
