Win Win Win SnugBaby Carrier
Win a SnugBaby sling!
Win a ready-made SnugBaby baby carrier in their fantastic Autumn competition.
A word from SnugBaby:-
"Our SnugBaby baby carriers are made from our most popular base & panel combinations. The slings are reversible, plain on one side, with a patterned accent panel on the other.
SnugBaby baby slings can be used from birth right up to toddlerhood, and your child can be carried in a number of ways - on your front, on your back or on your hip. It is easy to tie and very comfortable to wear, thanks to the way the baby's weight is distributed through the wide padded straps, meaning that it is your back, and not just your shoulders that take the weight of your bundle of joy.
And even if you don't win - not to worry, we also have 2 pairs of BabyLegs leg warmers to give away to runners-up."

Baby Massage
Baby Massage
The Benefits
- Baby massage can be a good thing for both parent and child because:
- It's a good bonding experience - a good way for you and your baby to get to know each other and to spend a bit of quality time together.
- Studies have suggested that physical contact is good for babies, improving their breathing, circulation, digestion and growth.
- It provides a good source of sensory and muscle stimulation, which is beneficial to all babies, but may be particularly good for babies with special needs, such as developmental disabilities and Down's syndrome.
- Baby massage is even claimed to combat postnatal depression in mothers, according to a BBC News Report on baby massage and post-natal depression.
- It relaxes both parent and child.
- It's fun for both of you.
