Thank you to Colimaçon & Cie for providing me with product, free of charge, in exchange for this honest blog review. All opinions are 100% my own.
Today, I want to share the French wrap company Colimaçon Cie Ring Sling with you. I know there are lots of choices when it comes to carriers available but the Ring Sling is one of my favorites. It’s truly my #1 recommendation for newborns (baby #5 practically lived in one for the first 3 months!) as well as my go-to when I’m wearing my toddler on a quick errand.
Whether you have one children or five, I think every parent wishes they had more hands! I recall back when we had our first baby almost 11 years ago, I desperately wanted to shower and almost broke down in tears when my husband agreed to take her with in the truck to haul some cows to the sales barn so I could. So while she was out experiencing her first true “farm life event” at the age of 1 week, I was enjoying a 15 minute shower in her absence. Unfortunately, I didn’t just need extra help when I wanted to shower. All day long I really could have used an extra hand. Thankfully, by baby number two, I had discovered baby-wearing and it literally changed my life.
I started wearing our second from the day we came home from the hospital. This became extremely helpful while also caring for our older daughter, who had just turned 2 at the time. I was able to do so many things that I had struggled with when I only had one child. I was now able to cook, clean, hike around the farm, read a book, and even go to the bathroom while wearing our son and having my hands free! Once our son was old enough to be worn in a back-carry position, the kiddos and I even went on 4-wheeler rides together. Baby-wearing gave me the freedom I needed to be a great mom to all of my kiddos while tending to the baby’s need to be held, snuggled, and close to mom. Now that we have 5 kids, baby wearing is even more important than ever for me.
The Colimaçon Cie Ring Slings are available in several colors and crafted from 100 % pure organic cotton broken twill. I chose the beautiful Lime Green Color because it looked like a really fun color and it’s even cuter in person! The sling itself is very soft to the touch which makes it comfortable for both our daughter and myself. (She even grabbed it and snuggled up on the floor with it!) Some of the great features include the ease of use, adjust-ability for a variety of different size wearers & babies, and the fact that it takes up very little space so it tucks easily into my diaper bag. I really like that this is slightly thinner than other slings I’ve seen so it adjusts much easier and I’m able to get a tight fit quickly. Overall, the Colimaçon Cie Ring Sling is a great choice and I highly recommend their slings!

I thought baby-wearing was such a cool thing when I first read about it. Even if you’re babysitting, you could use an extra hand or just want to make sure they’re extra safe and you have them in your site (literally!) at all times. When all the kids are out of the house and grown, you can still upcycle this wrap!

I really like having a hands free way to keep my baby close. When she gets in a ring sling or a carrier she is completely silent and relaxed. Whew!
