Baby won't let you take a shower?
Take him in the shower with you with a baby sling made just for the water!

With the Gypsy Mama Water Wrap or our Taylormade Water Mesh, you always have a way to take a shower.

We suggest that you put on the sling and put the baby in before you get in the shower. Wash yourself as normal, taking time to let baby play in the shower spray.

A hand held shower is perfect to best control the water and avoid spraying baby in the face! If you have a small or sleepy baby, you may be able to tuck his head into the carrier to protect from overspray.

You can gently stretch the fabric to wash baby as needed or wash right through the carrier. Rinse and then you can get out of the shower with baby in the carrier, towel off (yourself, the carrier, and baby), keep the carrier on and put on a robe.

Or, you may choose to take baby out of the carrier while in the shower. This works best if you have an older baby who will sit on the floor of the shower while you remove your wrap. Wet babies are slippery! We don't recommend trying to hold baby with one hand while taking your carrier off with the other!

Our water carriers dry fast and can be draped over the shower rod to dry overnight.
