| New Native Baby Carrier New Native Inc.; $68; www.newnativeinc.com. This sling-style carrier was specifically designed to promote contact-carrying of baby to establish bonds of closeness and security. The organic cotton, all-cotton or silk carrier is shaped like a shoulder sash and worn across the body from one shoulder to the opposite hip. There’s no extra fabric to wrap; no straps or buckles to adjust. Just order a standard size or custom-order a larger or smaller one. The baby can be placed in front, over the hip or across one’s back, and proper placement is explained on an instructional DVD. The cut of the New Native Carrier cradles the child and distributes her weight to the benefit of both the baby’s and the mom’s posture. Use as a cover-up for discreet, on-the-go nursing; slip the carrier easily into a diaper bag or purse for easy portability. For additional support for an infant’s head and back while being carried, invest in the organic cotton infant support pillow insert that can be purchased separately for $35.  |  |
