Organic Baby Slings and CarriersThis page of our website is reserved for baby slings and carriers that are certified 100% organic. These slings and carriers also feature on the main product pages by sling type, but we have also grouped them together on this page to make it easier for customers who particularly want to buy organic. At present we have the Close Baby Carrier which is an ingenious and versatile ring/wrap hybrid; The Cuddly Wrap and The Ellaroo Organic Ring Sling. Why Buy Organic?Conventional methods of cotton farming make it one of the most significant environmental polluters in agriculture. In order to produce enough cotton for one normal wraparound sling it is estimated that well over 2 pounds of fertilisers and pesticides are used. These chemicals pollute soil and water, kill wildlife and have a significant negative impact on the health of cotton workers. Research also suggests that residues in fabrics left behind from chemical processing may be absorbed through the skin. Organic cotton is generally softer and stronger than conventional cotton because the fabric has not been subjected to harsh chemicals during processing and dyeing. If you choose to buy organic cotton you are making a positive choice for the environment, for cotton growers and also for you and your baby. *New!* Close Baby Carrier
The Close Baby Carrier consists of two sashes of fabric which cross over in the back and the front. You slip it over your head to wear. It then adjusts through rings by your hips so you can pull it as tight as you need for comfort and security. The cross back gives excellent weight distribution and the soft stretch fabric and adjustability supports your baby safely and comfortably. View photo instructions for the Close Carrier:
When not in use the Close Baby Carrier packs away into a built in drawstring pocket for easy storage. Sizing InformationThe Close Baby Carrier is designed so that one size fits all. If you are small you can tie the extra fabric that comes through the rings out of the way if you prefer. Close Baby Carrier Fabric InformationThe Close Baby Carrier is made of deliciously soft 100% organic stretch cotton and is machine washable. The Close Baby Carrier is available in charcoal, natural, rouge, pistachio and olive.
