Slings, Sun and Showers: Babywearing in the Spring

Women carry children in Izmi Toddler Carrier and Izmi Baby Carrier while holding umbrellas

Here are my top tips on how to dress your baby in a carrier or wrap on those sunny-showery-windy-warm-cold spring days! 🌦️

Remember, as a rough rule of thumb:
1. You count as one layer of clothing for them, as YOU generate heat
2. The carrier/wrap is like another
3. A brisk walk/stepping indoors is like a third layer

Let's say your baby already has a vest and a sleepsuit on - that's like five layers!

So less is more, and go for thin, light layers you can easily remove 💜

Hats and cardigans are good ideas for your baby, and big cardigans or light jackets for you. Babywearing covers and lightweight coats are a fantastic option for changeable days; super handy to keep in your bag, waterproof covers like the Mamalila All Rounder Softshell Babywearing Cover, Bundlebean Fleece-lined Cover and the ultra lightweight Bundlebean Babywearing Raincover are brilliant options.

A giant transparent umbrella can also be brilliant to keep you both dry AND stop you from bumping into people on the pavement!

Choose your Izmi

Whatever stage you're at, there's an Izmi for that.
