The Front Clip & Safety Loop
The opening clip is best worn on the front of the shoulder for easy access to get
in and out of the sling. This clip is strength tested and deemed baby-safe. Firmly
attached under the clip is a back-up catch we call the safety loop. Make sure
you always have the safety loop secure when using the sling. To open the clip
remember to release the safety loop first.
Two adjuster clips at the back with
safety webbing allow you to adjust the
sling while wearing it. We recommend
you wear baby quite high as this
distributes the weight and will take
the strain off your lower back. When
seated or breast-feeding you can
loosen the sling for comfort by simply
tilting the adjuster clips on the back
of the shoulder. They can also be
tightened while wearing to provide
baby with extra comfort, safety and
support in different positions.
Fitting Your Sling
To fit the sling to your size start by
either shortening or lengthening the
front fabric strap (with the logo).
Most mothers and smaller sizes will
need to make this strap quite short or
tight (shorter than it arrives as new)
so that baby's head will be just on or
under the breast.
Most Dads and larger sizes will
make this strap a bit longer. Tighten
/ shorten the back straps prior to
putting the sling on (you want it to be
about hip high to start with) and then
use them to adjust to a comfortable
height once baby is in the sling.
Lift the safety loop so it’s
on top of the open clip.
Close the clip making sure
it is fully engaged, you will
hear a firm ‘click’.
Pull the loop over the
closed clip so that it sits
under all four corners.

Safety
Loop
In the Diagonal
Cradle Position:
Pull the inside rail tight to
wear baby high (on your
belly button) and leave the
outside rail loose to give
baby’s head more room so
their chin is off their chest.
In the Hip Seat
Position:
Once baby is straddled on
your hip high enough so
you are standing straight
you can tighten the outside
rail so baby’s back is
supported and upright too.
TIP: Get hold of the
webbing then jump up
a little when you pull.
