“Babywearing is love,
it makes everyday easier
and provides security .”“Babywearing accords to the nature of the human baby
and is the base for the satisfaction of his needs.”Source: Die Trageschule Baby tragen
The human being is a parent clinger. From its emergence he spends its time in the warm amniotic fluid in the womb of its mother, close to her heart which beating is one of the first things it’s able to experience. Approximately 40 weeks or how long a pregnancy takes, it’s carried, nurtured and kept warm.
After its birth, it’s torn out of this wonderful, safe and snug place, into a cold and crude environment. After cutting its umbilical cord, its physically separated from its mother. But he’s still in need for the closeness to her because, from a physiological view, the human baby is a preemie – unable to survive on its own… Baby tragen
He cannot walk, so it will be carried from all those loving people who surround it, take care for it and unconditionally love it. And the more they carry, the more it will feel comfortable. From the beginnings of mankind, babies have been carried like young mammals.
Carried babys cry less, have less problems with digestion and babywearing stimulates all of their senses. Parents, who carry, have constant body contact to their babies, can bond and have their hands free for daily work, household, errands – or siblings.
