OMGOSH thank you so much for this video! I’ve been using the boba wraps and they were great when my now 10 month old was smaller and less active but now it’s just too much to wrap it all the time. The ring wrap is so much easier but it gave me so much anxiety since it’s just me creating her seat. But this has given me the confidence and tips and tricks I needed to make sure she’s seated right and secure. Thank you so much.
This was great! I always thought slinging wasn’t for me until I watched this video and now I think we can give it a try! Thanks so much for the in depth look
Thanks for this! This was so clear and easy to follow. I was able to go from never having used a ring sling before to confidently carrying my 6 mo old. The elbow trick and the part about the key and the lock (ie lifting the baby to loosen or tighten) made all the difference in my understanding. Thanks so much!
I seriously feel like the biggest moron that I can't even figure this out. I am in tears. I had a Maya ring sling that somebody put together for me. I borrowed it from her on my last baby and gave it back. She's using it again on a grandchild. I now bought my own. I have no idea how to do this. I've watched and rewatched this.😢
Great tutorial, and omg how precious is your little one!! Thank you 🙏 🥰 I also think you should link your company info as the full website in your description box, and also under your About in the channel tab!
This was helpful, I’ve tried over and over again with my 4 month old with no success so I’ll try again today. One problem is that he doesn’t have full neck control yet (he’s a premie) so he slouches and flops around. Maybe the sling is best for a baby who can sit unassisted or is a newborn that doesn’t mind laying down? Lastly, I love your pants in this video, can you share where you got them? I’m always searching for non-jean pants that also aren’t dressy and these are perfect.

Our linen is pre softened, but naturally a bit more stiff than cotton or other materials that some might be used to. Your linen will "break in" by using it, threading it through the rings or washing.
Never use a modal ring sling! Modal os not a strong fabric and it can get ripped when wet! Linen is the best fabric for baby wearing, cotton is the second best!
I have a suggestion: It is very very challenging to mirror the opposite. I too carry my baby on the right but following you is difficult as you are facing me--this video works best for left-side carriers. I follow a QiGong video and the instructor makes every movement that we as viewers do but "in mirror", so when she says, Your left arm she raises her right. Watching your video, I have to stand with my back toward you in order to follow.
