Boba, two-way stretchy wrap (SW56) Check Availability

Overview:

Stretchy wraps are a lovely cuddly option for babies in the first few months of life, a fab choice for easing that 'womb to world' transition. They're super-soft, and mould beautifully to support a tiny body.  Once you get the hang of them, they're quick to tie too, and you can tie them once and then pop baby in and out as needed.

This Boba stretchy wrap is the classic model, made primarily of french terry cotton. It's super-stretchy, stretching well along length, width and diagonals, meaning that it's easy to get baby in and out without the more precise tensioning required with a wrap that doesn't stretch along it's length.  It's a good place to start babywearing!
