Since what age a child can be carried in the NATI sling?
As opposed to most carrycots in the NATI sling you can carry children from the birthday. The proper ties for carrying newborns are: Cross Carry, Wrap Cross Carry 1, Wrap Cross Carry 2, Cradle 1, Cradle 2, Cradle 3 and Cradle 4.To what age a child can be carried?
Practice shows, that children are carried in slings even up to the age of 3. But there is not one answer to this question, because each parent as well as each child is different. That is why each parent decides when to stop carrying his or her baby in the sling. We can ensure that regarding the strength of the NATI sling it is adapted to a much higher weight than a 3 year old child.For older babies the best ties are Rucksack Carry 1 and Rucksack Carry 2.
Is carrying babies in the sling safe?
The safety of the NATI sling includes:- Tying safety. Proposed tying methods prevent babies from slipping out. Positions taken by a child in the sling are anatomically natural, moreover because of the equal spreading of the child's weight in the sling there are no harmful spine overloads. That is why NATI slings are recommended by doctors and physiotherapists.
- Chemical safety. NATI slings are woven form 100% high quality natural cotton and dyes applied for colouring yarns are approved for newborns.
- Strenght and fabric properties. A special weaving method of the fabric used in NATI slings ensures high strenght, as well as a proper diagonal elasticity to adjust the sling to the shape of the baby's body. The physical and chemical fabric properties have been tested in EU accredited laboratories.
- Safety and comfort for a person who carries the baby. We show tying methods in which the baby's weight is spread on both shoulders and additionally on the back and belly equally. Therefore, carrying babies is more comfortable and does not overload the spine. Spreading the sling's fabric on the whole surface of both shoulders prevents from pinching caused by the baby's weight (which is often observed in standard carrycots).
As in every activity, also when carrying babies you have to use common sense.
How can I learn to use the NATI sling?
Along with the NATI sling we deliver a user guide with a detailed description of the tying methods. At the beginning we suggest to master one tying method. It is wise to start when a child is after a meal and a good sleep. It is good to try using the NATI sling, and also try new types of knots, on a doll, teddy bear or on a pillow. Mastering of each next knot comes easier and easier and it soon turns out that the user guide is no longer necessary. It is easy!Which sling size is best for me?
If the NATI sling will be used by more than one person, the sling size should be chosen for the larger person. It is no problem if the tied sling has unused fragments. Then it is enough to wrap the fragments around your body again. To choose the proper size of the NATI sling read the tips here.Can a baby get used to being carried in the sling too much?
Like every product for children, also the NATI sling has to be used reasonably. Despite carrying in a sling a child needs time for relax and individual play. A balance should be kept between cuddling, carrying and the possibility of independent learning of the world. Live shows that carrying babies does not exeed 3 to 4 hours a day. It is not the period which threats a proper child development.Most parents suffer rather from having too little time, than too much, to spend with their babies. The NATI sling is a perfect solution to catch up on the relationship betwen children and their very busy parents. During many house activities or walks carrying babies allows to establish a strong relationship in a short time.
