A ring sling carrier is a great option if you’re looking for a baby carrier that is less structured. Most can accomodate a wide range of weights, making them a great option for use from those first early weeks throughout toddlerhood.


The ring sling is amazing for your pelvic floor early postpartum, as it offsets the pelvic pressure. And it’s amazing for stretching babe’s head in the opposite direction if they’re experiencing some directional preference or torticollis!Plus, it’s super easy for nursing on the go.
