I love the idea of baby wearing and I’m the owner of 4 different slings/infant. carriers to prove it. Somehow the perfect sling has so far alluded me, so I was keen to try out the Sleepy Nico carrier. For the first 6-8 months of my son’s babyhood, I used a hand me down Mothercare baby carrier which was quite functional, but not what I would accept chosen if I had been buying for myself. Once my baby got heavier I found it more obscure to use (even though he was smooth well under the maximum weight recommended), but my husband persevered during a few months longer. I bought another carrier/sling, but found the instructions too complex. Now we use a Quinny Curbb for going upright art galleries, museums, stately homes, etc. and a hand me down basic backpack for country walking. Both work adequately because of those needs, but they aren’t very adaptable and are rather bulky. I really missed having a sling I could use on a daily foundation, but was worried about wasting money on something else that didn’t certainly drudge in favor of me.

Testers: Me, 5ft 7 average build, my man 5ft 9 average build and our 18 month old Mr Active weighing in at a healthy 26 pounds. We used it with regard to about a week both at home and out and about including a weekend blunder to London.

Appearance: I tested the Broderie Noire fabric confederacy which was made of a soft black corduroy with broderie detailing. The detailing is quite low key making this carrier appealing to both mummies and daddies. Bebe Cannelle sell a range of fabric choices of what one. my personal favourite is the Murmure choice, which is stylishly stripy limited issue in cream, moss and chocolate.
