Organic Baby Slings and Carriers
This 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.
All our prices include first class P&P within the UK!
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 is an ingenious design which manages to combine the comfort and weight distribution of a wrap, with the adjustability and ease of use of a ring sling. We anticipate this becoming a very popular sling as it ticks all the boxes!
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.

When not in use the Close Baby Carrier packs away into a built in drawstring pocket for easy storage.

Cuddly Wrap
The Cuddly Wrap is a stretchy wraparound carrier made of top quality 100% organic cotton jersey. The fabric has enough stretch so that it moves with you but is still supportive enough to provide excellent back support for the person carrying, even with older babies and toddlers.
The wrap is at its widest in the middle and tapers at the ends for easy tying. It has enough width in the middle to be used for back-carrying with older babies and toddlers. The basic tying method for a stretchy wraparound is used for most carrying positions.
As with our other stretchy wraps the Cuddly Wrap is designed so that one size fits all, and can be used in a wide variety of carrying positions including cradle, front facing in, front facing out and on the back.
Cuddly Wrap Fabric Information
The fabric used to make the Cuddly Wrap is certified 100% organic and is fairly traded. It is luxuriously soft and is beautiful quality.
The Cuddly Wrap is available in black, a vibrant red, subtle tan and rich brown.
