The BB-SLEN is a comfortable, woven baby sling that allows for all carrying styles. It offers perfect support from birth to toddlers aged 3 to 4 years. The BB-SLEN is made of 100% organic cotton and is produced in a Fair Trade studio in India. The unique baby sling fabric of the BB-SLEN is woven in such a way that the fabric feels wonderfully soft and supple without losing strength. The special weaving technique ensures optimum support and comfort (light diagonal stretch, no stretch in length and width). What length do I need? The BB-SLEN is available in five sizes: 260 cm, 420 cm, 460 cm, 490 cm and 560 cm. The length you choose depends on your clothing size and the carrying style you want to use. The 260 cm is a short baby sling, intended for use similar to a ring sling. The 420 cm, 460 cm, 490 cm and 560 cm are suitable for all carrying styles. Depending on your clothing size, choose 420 cm, 460 cm, 490 cm or 560 cm. Smaller people can take 420 or 460 cm, taller people 490 cm. From clothing size 46 we recommend 560 cm. But 560 cm can also be used for smaller people; you wrap the extra fabric around your hip again for extra support. The disadvantage is that you now have more fabric around your body that you cannot neatly tuck away under the belly band as you can with a knitted baby sling.

In a baby sling, your baby experiences the world from a position that is safe for him. The mass of stimuli that he has to process in a short time does not frighten him, carried so snugly. This feeling of security leads to the development of a positive self-image and later forms the basis for a self-confident and self-assured personality. In a baby sling, the baby is not forced to spend the day passively and waiting, but he participates in your activities in a natural way. The baby gets to see and hear a lot, which benefits his psychosocial development. From a safe place, he gets the chance to communicate with the people and the world around him at eye level. If it gets too much for him, he closes his eyes and falls asleep against the chest of his wearer. His physical development is also stimulated in many different ways. All the movements and touches promote good development of fine and gross motor skills. Your child sits safely in the baby sling while he can feel, stroke, grab and pinch to his heart's content. The development of the muscles and joints is also stimulated by carrying your child in the M-position*. Please note that in many baby carriers your child will not be in this ergonomic position. Only with a baby sling can you be sure that you can always give your child the right support. *M-position: If your child's pelvis is supported in the right way, your child's spine and neck will be curved in a natural curve and his weight will be carried by his pelvis. To get this position, your child's knees (slightly pulled up and folded) must be higher than his bottom, in the so-called M-position. Your child's back is then nicely rounded and he lies comfortably with his head against your body.
