The ERGO Baby Carrier in combination with our Infant Insert enables
you to buy only one carrier that will assist you through all the stages
of your baby's growth. The insert is specially padded and shaped
cushion that can be quickly and easily placed in the carrier and
readjusted or folded to pad just the right places for your infant. Your
infant is then cradled in a cozy, protected environment close to your
heart and breast. Your baby is supported with both feet to one side in
a sling-like position. This is best for the baby's physical development
from newborn to around four months. Parents can remain attentive to
their baby's needs at the same time continue daily activities because
parent and baby are like one. The Hood can be extended for privacy when
nursing or as a sun shield.

Here at ERGO we are advocates of
our babies facing inward towards the parent in the vertical front carry
position. Dr. Eveline Kirkilionis describes it best in her book, "A
Baby Wants To Be Carried." Infants in outward-facing orientations can't
turn away from surrounding stimuli that become overwhelming. In this
position the baby cannot make eye contact with his or her parent to
evaluate facial expressions, social cues, and so forth to make
assessment of the situation. Only choose a baby carrier that allows
your child to face you,..never out.

Babies love and need to be carried. Infant development researchers who have studied baby care practices around the world tell us that there are many significant benefits for babies who are carried in sling style carriers. Here are only a few. Sling babies...
* are more content and less demanding
* cry dramatically less (34% less during the day and 51% less at night)
* exhibit advanced mental development
* are more likely to grow and thrive optimally
* experience a deeper mother-infant bond
Credible research has also shown that once these well-bonded sling babies become children they are more secure, settled, trusting, sensitve, empathetic, sociable, independent, considerate, co-operative, positive, adaptable, eager to learn, confident and affectionate. Wow!

The Little Star Baby Sling is as easy to put on as a purse. There are no frustrating and time consuming straps, snaps, buckles ar rings to pinch or rub. There is no unnecessary and bulky padding so when your baby needs down time the sling can comfortably and conveniently be left on. It looks like a sash. This can be awkward with other baby sling styles. The sleek design is cool to wear during the hot summer months plus, it can fold right up to fit into your purse!
