The seed of Baby Buddha Baby Gear Ltd. has been germinating since Alison had baby Coco two years ago. Alison began "babywearing" immediately, creating a beautiful mother-daughter bond. A choosy client, when she couldn't find a sling that was comfortable, easy to use and stylish she decided to sew her own, unexpectedly embarking on a sling-sewing career. After repeatedly meeting Vancouver women who admired her slings, she realized it was time to launch a company.
Meanwhile, Paula, a teacher and industrial designer, was exploring avenues to satisfy a life-long passion for textile design. Clear that she wanted to design and develop products that enhance rather than clutter lives, she was plotting her next move in innovative, ergonomic and sustainable design. stylish gear for gentle beginningsSign up for our free newsletter
When Alison met Paula, they recognized in Baby Buddha the perfect path for both their visions. They believe parent-led design vetted by an industrial designer will ensure parents get products they really need and can feel good about. With the Together Sling, their first product to market, they are creating a company that respects people and the planet. That's why the Together Sling is made from fabric milled in Canada, is sewed in Vancouver and comes in a reusable bag instead of disposable packaging.

| Freedom
The Together Sling helps you and your baby be happy and active. You're relaxed, free to play with your children, see friends, run errands, go to the park or cinema and meet deadlines for work. At home and away, you can nurture your baby and get stuff done.
|
| Ergonomics
The Together Sling supports your baby close to your body and above your waist. It distributes baby's weight evenly, reducing neck, shoulder and back fatigue and allows you to carry your baby without getting aching arms!
An almost seamless design, free of rings and buckles, means no pressure points irritate you or your baby. The stabilizer transfers baby's weight from your shoulders to your hips, where women carry weight best. The Together Sling ensures a healthy posture for parents and (incontrast to rigid baby carriers) nurtures your baby's hip and spine development.
|
| Comfort
When you're toting baby around it's important that you're both comfortable. Our performance fabric stretches with you as you move. It is gentle against your baby's skin and wicks moisture away, keeping you both dry.
|
| Style
With the simple Together Sling, there's no need to compromise your sense of style. It comes in a range of beautiful colours and Dad isn't forced to wear florals to prove his love for his baby. When you're traveling light and uncluttered, tuck your cell phone, burp cloth, or extra diaper in the utility pocket, and hang a soother or toy from the special loop. The sleek stabilizer-wrap even doubles as a belly warmer before birth and looks great as a skirt over jeans afterwards.
|
| Sizing
The Baby Buddha Together Sling is made of performance fabric that stretches comfortably with you to create the perfect fit. You should not feel constricted but a snug fit will ensure your baby does not droop below your waist creating the most ergonomic carrying position.
SIZE ONE
If you are buying one sling that you will be sharing with your partner, you will be comfortable passing this size back and forth. We recommend it if you are between 5' to 6' tall with a slender to medium build.
TALL
If the primary sling-wearer is large-framed, or stands 6' or taller with a medium build, we recommend this size.
