Other slings are similar
in concept, position, ages, health advantages and psychological benefits,
however, there are some distinct differences that buyers much prefer.
When parents can see both, they almost always choose ours.
Over the Shoulder Baby Holder is the only
sling worthy to receive from America’s #1 parenting resource, The National
Parenting Center, their seal of approval for it’s superb design and quality.

1) Most importantly, it has a patented safety nylon ring sewn
into the bottom portion of the tail to prevent it from slipping
through the rings if worn incorrectly.
2) Over The Shoulder Baby Holder, has two times the amount
of padding on the parent’s shoulder, and around the baby’s head
and legs. It’s more expensive to manufacture, but the quality shows.
3) Our batting is paneled or sewn down; it cannot slip inside
the seam into the adjusting portion making it impossible to adjust.
Sewing the batting down also prevents the batting from bunching
up and twisting around while wearing or during washing.
4) Our batting is flame-retardant. This is not an added chemical
that will wash Out. Other slings have a resin added that makes it
easier to cut and sew, but it’s highly flammable and allergenic.
Not having our batting treated with this resin is also much softer
to the touch and does not mat down.
5) We have a string tie that holds the side rails together
over the shoulder pillows; this doubles our already plush padding
and prevents the sides from falling down toward mom’s elbows or
pressing into her neck, thus keeping the whole sling in better proportion
for the wearer.
6) Our designer fabrics fit fashions. We typically stock
3 to 4 dozen soft pastels, stripes, solids, florals, Guatemalan,
southwest, batik, Hawaiian and country prints. Mom can look good
while she holds her baby close.
7) Our fabrics are cool breathable low allergenic 100% cotton
or mostly cotton-poly blends. We have 3 sizes to comfortably fit
any size parent. Petite for people under 5 ft. and under 120 lbs.
Regular for parents between 140 lbs. and 175 lbs. Large for parents
(mostly moms) over 170 lbs. or 5’ 10" tall up to 250 lbs.
8) We have one price for all our standard fabrics
and sizes.
9) The Over the Shoulder Baby Holder comes with a FREE 20
minute instructional video. This produces happier users and less
returns. Our video-instructions show a larger variety of positions
to carry the baby and a variety of different age babies moms can
relate to.
10) Our packaging has color photos to show and explain how
the product is used. Our competitors either have no packaging or
a hard box that shows the same position three times.
11) We have a network of natural childbirth educators and
lactation consultants who continually supply feed-back and we respond,
making changes immediately because we’re made in the U.S.A. Our
slings are professionally sewn on industrial sewing machines, by
professional seamstresses, so each and every one comes out perfectly
even, consistent, and high quality. They are not sewn in Asia or
unsupervised on a "hobby machine".
