CRADLE CARRY:
Put the sling on backwards so the shoulder pad can be used
as a pillow. Place babys head toward the rings on the pillow.
If additional support is needed, place a folded receiving blanket
under the babys head and torso. After a few weeks you wont
need this extra padding.
CRADLE CARRY FOR OLDER CHILDREN:
As baby grows, he will be more comfortable with his head on
the opposite side. The sling will spread to accommodate babys
growth. As baby grows, wear sling in normal position.

SNUGGLE HOLD-NEWBORN AND OLDER:
Hold baby against your shoulder. With your opposite hand, pull
the edge of the sling out and up over baby. Pull babys feet
down under the lower railing of the sling. Adjust the snugness
of the sling so that baby is securely nestled against your chest.
Be certain the lower railing is snug against the babys thigh
and the upper railing is snug along the back of his head and
neck.
