Previous page Happy Baby, Happy Family Mothers and babies are at the heart of all we do. As a mom, I wanted our goods to reflect my enthusiasm for keeping babies' well-being. How did we get our start? I started babywearing when my first child was a few days old because it was the only way to keep her content and happy. I was never very happy with the products I used so I started making wraps and slings when my second child was born because I could not find a sling or wrap that was made from the right fabric. They were either too stretchy, too stiff or too hot. I also couldn’t find any designs I liked. What makes our products unique? Our slings and wraps are specially woven for babywearing, the fabrics will not stretch over time, and they hold the baby firmly in place but have just the right amount of give so they are easy to put on and comfortable to wear. They are all individually handwoven and hand-dyed with plant-based dyes. Also, all of our fabrics are made from 100% natural fibers, so they are all very breathable, comfortable, and lightweight. Why do we love what we do? I am very passionate about babywearing and I strongly believe in the benefits! When a baby can see the world from where their parents do (rather than from far below, like in a stroller) their senses are stimulated and their attention is engaged all while feeling safe and secure. Not only does this extra stimulation benefit brain development but the baby quickly develops a sense of security and trust when carried close in a baby wrap or sling. Babywearing is good for cognitive and social development of the child according to some studies. Hip Baby Wrap is a small women-owned business in Miami Florida. Our wraps and slings are all individually handmade in cooperatives under fair trade practices in India. Our business supports communities small villages and helps provide jobs for mothers and families to be able to work out of their homes. All of our products are made with non-toxic dyes, locally sourced high-grade cotton and electricity-free manufacturing. Next page
