Voted “Best Buy” by Mother&Baby magazine when tested against other leading baby carriers and slings (April/May 2010)
Developed by a babywearing instructor and mum in Germany, the Manduca Organic Baby Carrier is supremely comfortable for both wearer and baby. The generously padded shoulder straps and wide waist belt work together to distribute baby's weight whilst baby sits in the orthopedically-recommended M position (baby's bottom is LOWER than the knees, as in a capital M).
Safe babywearing is important. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission states safe baby carriers will always have the baby in a position close enough to kiss, and the baby's knees should always be higher than his/her bottom in their sling or baby carrier.
Manduca Organic Baby Carriers tick all the boxes for safe babywearing.
Manduca Organic Baby Carriers always have an inner layer of 100% certified organic cotton. The outer shell of the baby carrier is organic cotton with hemp OR 100% organic cotton (limited edition designer models).
The Manduca is a baby carrier with a lot of advantages in an unique design which makes carrying to a pleasure - for you and your children!
