We were very pleased to have been sent this review of the Mamajacket babywearing coat, by Hannah, who was keen to share her find with you. Thanks Hannah!
I spent a lot of time looking for a coat that I could sling with – something that didn’t look too much like an anorak but would still let me front and back carry.
The Mamajacket isn’t cheap but it is made of nice woollen fabric and cut well. It has a knitted insert you either zip into the front which has a gap for your little one’s head, or a zip at the back which lets you expand the back to put the insert in there for back carries. You can also buy a pregnancy insert which is basically a panel to put on the front to accommodate your bump!
I love the fact it’s a lot smarter than most babywearing covers, it looks like a normal coat but with the ability to zip it over your baby (and fits on the shoulders and arms unlike having to wear a larger sized coat) and it will last for ages because of the way you can change it from front to back use.
The big downside is the cost – at around £125, its not cheap but I reckon a good investment if you’ll be using it regularly and don’t want to wear something that looks like an anorak.
