1.

  Sit  down  and  place  the  ends  of  the 

sling  over  your  shoulders.  The  centre 
of the sling forms a loop in front of you. 
Place your baby in front of your tummy.

2.

  Now  pull  the  sling  up  smoothly  over 

your  child’s  back  until  it  is  about  two  
finger  widths  above  her  ears,  with  one 
hand holding baby’s bottom.

3.

  Now  reach  inside  under  the  end  of 

fabric over your shoulder and grasp the 
head edge.

6. 

Drape  the  sling  over  your  lower  arm 

and pull the head edge tight.

4.

 Now pull the head edge outwards, over 

your  shoulder.  The  nappy  edge  is  now 
above the head edge. The sling should be 
spread sideways about 15 cm across your 
shoulder. Do the same on the other side.

5. 

Now  reach  behind  you  with  one  

hand,  grasp  one  end  of  the  sling  and  
pull  it  forwards  underneath  the  other, 
keeping  that  hand  close  to  your  body. 
Your other hand supports your child.

The  remaining  fabric  is  now  pulled  

between  baby’s  legs  towards  her  body 
(see picture below).

Snuggle-

tummy-to-
tummy “frog”

  

(suitable for babies 
from day 1 on;  
also appropriate for  
pree mies)

7.

  Now  use  the  hand  which  did  the  

grasping  a  moment  ago  to  hold  your 
child and the head edge tight. With your 
free hand, reach behind you and pull the 
second  strip  forwards,  crossing  it  over 
and  again  pulling  the  head  edge  tight. 
Now the two ends of the sling are pulled 
tight strand by strand, starting with the 
end you pulled forward first.
