The process of securing an infant or young child to a caregiver’s body using a specific type of stretchy wrap carrier, often referred to by the brand name Moby Wrap, allows for hands-free movement while maintaining close physical contact. The technique involves strategically folding and tying the long piece of fabric around the wearer’s torso to create a secure pouch or seat for the baby.
Employing this method can foster bonding between caregiver and child, promote infant development through increased physical closeness, and offer a practical solution for caregivers needing to accomplish tasks while tending to their baby’s needs. The design originated as a modern adaptation of traditional babywearing practices found across various cultures, offering a soft and adjustable alternative to more structured carriers.
