Below is my original intro
to this site...boy, have things changed....I now have 4 children...the fourth being a waterbirth in August 2005...little did
I know that water would play such a big role in our lives...1 week after my youngest son was born, Hurricane Katrina hit the
New Orleans area...we were displaced for 4 months and lost 90% of our possessions.
We are now back, safe and
sound. During this ordeal, having a wrap to hold my 1 week old baby in was a life saver....sanity saver & all around
big help...I still had a 22 month old to chase around as well as an 8 year old & a 6 year old. I was lucky that
I'm a pack rat and had 2 Ella Roo's stashed in my van.
The Red Cross really helped
us out after Katrina (as well as several other organizations). As a thank you, $2 from every wrap purchase will be donated
to the Red Cross.
Thanks so much.

In 2003 I gave birth to my 3rd child, a little girl, and found myself overwhelmed.
It had been 4.5 years since I'd had a little one and this time I had a 7 year old and a 4.5 year old to chase around. I didn't
have enough time, rest or HANDS! I'd always been interested in babywearing. I'd even purchased a sling style carrier 8 years
ago when my daughter was born, but I was a working mom then and didn't take the time to use it. Now that I'm a WAHM with 2
other children, I was determined to make my life easier. I came across the wrap style carriers and it has been a
lifesaver.
Wraparound baby carriers are designed by parents, for parents. The styles
are inspired by traditional baby carriers from around the world, while keeping the modern parent in mind.
The Ella Roo wrap is made of 100% cotton handwoven Guatemalan fabric. The highest quality materials
are used to make comfortable, practical, durable baby carriers.
The Moby Wrap is an amazingly
comfortable and easy to wear. There are no buckles, snaps or other fasteners. It is easy to adjust the fit of your Moby Wrap
by varying how tightly you wrap yourself and your baby. You can finally have both hands free and know your baby
is safe and secure.

is an Australian wraparound baby carrier similar to the Moby Wrap. It too is easy to wear, comes in a variety of colors and
is one of my favorites.
Wraparound baby carriers are a wonder discovery. If you've just had your first baby,
or if this is your fourth, I invite you to try one of our wraps. You won't be disappointed!
I just had to share these with the world!
