Whether while breastfeeding, walking or simply going through your daily routine, you and baby will share the same space. Baby will benefit from hearing your heartbeat & with each breath you take, will be comforted while being worn.
All babies love to be held. After all, they have been with you their entire lives. So instead of sitting in a swing, bouncy chair or laying and napping in a stroller or crib, baby is with you, sharing your space and learning from the sights and sounds of your day.
Comfort
The monkeywrap offers comfort to baby and wearer. By wrapping around the body and over the shoulders, the monkeywrap uses the strength of your entire back, shoulders, abs and upper arms to carry baby's weight. When the fabric is flat accross your back you should feel no pressure points. As baby grows, the monkeywrap grows with baby, offering the ability to adjust for additional weight in the way it is tied, worn and fitted to both you and baby, every time it is worn.
Made from the softest combed cotton blend, the monkeywrap is soft and natural while offering the comfort of a slight stretch. The cotton allows the monkeywrap to breathe so mom and baby stay cool while the stretch allows the monkeywrap to give a bit of bounce while walking that offers baby a smoother ride. The bumps are absorbed by the material as opposed to baby feeling every step mom takes. The stretch in the fabric also helps the product go back to shape when your baby is removed so you don't need to re-tie the wrap.
Convenience
The convenience of having your hands free while wearing your baby is priceless. All parents are busy and are juggling many activities. The monkeywrap allows you to keep baby with you. It gives parents free hands to care for older children while including baby in family activities.
Colicky babies
The monkeywrap is a wonderful solution for a colicky baby. As you may or may not have experienced, a colicky baby wants to be held. Endless hours of holding is tiring for mom and dad as well as baby. They are often juggled from one arm to the other or rocked back and forth.
The natural movement of your body as you go about your day, wearing your baby offers a colicky baby the comfort he is seeking, while giving mom and dad the well deserved rest of being hands-free.
Nursing in your monkeywrap
You can wear your baby while nursing as well. In fact it is such a naturally comfortable hold that the baby may snuggle right in & sleep following feeding. In the privacy of your own home, the monkeywrap can be worn as a wrap-shirt, as it covers mommy & baby while holding baby in the proper position. Tying the monkeywrap for breastfeeding is something you will adapt as baby grows and will be different for every mom. You will know what works best for the two of you.
Our monkeywrap helps the family stay together. You will have your little monkey with you during all family outings, whether he is sleeping, learning or nursing.
Special Needs Babies
Being worn in a monkeywrap provides a special needs baby with a wonderful environment to thrive while learning and growing in a safe, secure place during any number of different therapies.
Premature Babies - Kangaroo Care
Wrapping and wearing a premature baby gives back the precious first few weeks of closeness and bonding that they lost being away from mom. Wearing a preemie baby provides the best possible environment for them to thrive and grow once they have come home from the hospital. Preemie babies can be worn for hours and breastfed throughout the day without having to leave the monkeywrap. Having baby close after a period of missing baby also helps mom to avoid post-partum depression as well.
