Winter babywearing is somewhat of an acquired skill, that involves a bit of trial and error, and quite a few layers!
As the temperatures drop, your babywearing safety knowledge should not.
Here are a few tips to keep YOU and YOUR little ones warm, toasty and safe this winter!
Visible and Kissable:
Baby’s face should still be visible and free from blankets, or zipped up jackets to avoid suffocation.
This can be accomplished by either, you yourself wearing a thin base layer under the carrier (thermal shirt, fleece jacket, woolie sweater etc), and a specified babywearing coat, hoodie or vest that your little one’s head sticks out of over top.
Or
Dressing baby warmly, and you putting the carrier directly over your winter coat… which can be done, but also is pretty entertaining. If you have not witnessed the sweat that is worked up while wrapping over a puffy coat and snow suit… well, you are one of the lucky ones. 😉
Ensure that your little one’s chin is off his chest, and that his airways are nice and clear at all times.
What is your “go-to” winter babywearing routine?
