Babywearing basics

The widely used T.I.C.K.S. guidelines (bellow) ensure safe and comfortable babywearing. Following these principles helps keep the baby secure, properly positioned, and comfortable while being carried.

The T.I.C.K.S Rule for Safe Babywearing

T - Tight: Keep the carrier snug against you for secure baby positioning.

I - In View: Always see your baby's face to ensure clear airways.

C - Close for Kiss: Position baby high enough for easy kissing.

K - Keep Chin Up: Ensure baby's chin isn't resting on their chest.

S - Supported Back: Maintain baby's back in a natural, supported position.

Remember these tips for safe and comfortable babywearing!

Tying the Boba Wrap

The key to success is getting the tension right before you put the baby in!

Tying the wrap nice and snug will ensure the baby doesn’t slip, sag or slump in the carrier and that wearing the baby feels like wearing a hug - comfortable, secure, and safe!
When tying the Boba Wrap, aim to tie it so it feels as tight and clings to your body as an athletic top.

There is no need to tie the wrap loosely or leave space for the baby as the elasticity of the wrap will provide a snug fit!

"Love Your Baby" hold

Here are a few key points for a comfortable and secure carry:
A. When the wrap is tied for a perfect fit, take the baby in your arms and position them on your chest in a secure ergonomic position.
B. Ensure the wrap is spread equally from knee pit to knee pit.
C. Each pass of the wrap should come up to the back of baby's neck.
The even weight distribution will prevent the baby from slumping sideways or their legs dropping down.
D. Baby's torso should be snug against yours to keep the chest cavity uncurled and the chin of the chest.
E. Your baby should feel secure even if you were to lean forward (with one hand on the baby's head).

Pelvic Tuck

Small infants have gently curved spines, and their natural ergonomic position is with their knees drawn up into a comfortable “M shape”/frog position/spread squat.

From this wide seat base, babies can be properly supported all the way up to the back of the neck, and their weight is equally distributed, thus preventing the babies from slumping in the carrier (or if they are being carried in arms).

To ensure your baby is in an optimal ergonomic position, you can hold your baby’s legs under their knee pits and gently scoop them towards your body in an upwards motion, rotating and tucking their pelvis under. This helps create a “J shape” (from the side) or an “M shape” (from the front) position!
This ergonomic positioning also helps encourage healthy hip development and prevent hip dysplasia!
