sling over your shoulders. The centre
of the sling forms a loop in front of you.
Place your baby in front of your tummy.
2. Now pull the sling up smoothly over
your child’s back until it is about two
finger widths above her ears, with one
hand holding baby’s bottom.

fabric over your shoulder and grasp the
head edge.
6. Drape the sling over your lower arm
and pull the head edge tight.

your shoulder. The nappy edge is now
above the head edge. The sling should be
spread sideways about 15 cm across your
shoulder. Do the same on the other side.

hand, grasp one end of the sling and
pull it forwards underneath the other,
keeping that hand close to your body.
Your other hand supports your child.

your child’s legs into the “spread
squatting position”. Both her legs should
be at the same height, with her knees
about level with her belly button.
8b. To give you more freedom to move,
fold the sling upwards onto your shoul-
der, keeping the sling firmly tied around
your child to give her firm support.
1. With the centre of the sling forming a loop in front of your stomach, lower your
child into the pouch from your shoulder. Now, pull up the head edge of the sling
smoothly until it is two fingerbreadths above your child’s ears. The remaining fabric
is smoothed down under her bottom and folded up between her nappy and your
tummy. Now continue from Step 3 above.
2. Lift one leg and wrap your child in the centre of the sling, draping it over
your shoulders. Use one hand to support your child. Now continue from Step 2 above.
