Below are five tips to finding that cool wrap for the summer:
1. Choose a Breathable Baby Wrap: The Moby Waffle Knit Wrap

2. Go Hands-Free with the Moby Hip Seat Carrier

3. Time Your Babywearing Wisely
Even with the best breathable baby carrier, it’s smart to plan your outings during cooler parts of the day—early mornings or late afternoons. Stay in shaded areas, and always pack sun protection like baby hats, sunscreen, and plenty of water. You can never be too careful on a hot summer day.
4. Dress for the Heat
Both Mom and child should wear lightweight, moisture-wicking fabrics. We recommend an easy onesie. Always accessorize with a hat for both you and baby.
5. Monitor Baby’s Temperature
Important tip: make a habit of checking your baby’s body temperature. Feel the back of their neck or their chest—if they’re damp or flushed, it may be time to find some shade, or head indoors.
