If you missed our wonderful Mother’s Tea event at Austin Kula Yoga this past Sunday, don’t worry! You did not miss your only chance to get some baby wearing advice and instruction. Stop by anytime to get personalized assistance picking out the perfect sling for you and your sweet new baby. You don’t have to wait until your new baby arrives to get fitted for your sling. You’ll want to get started using the sling right away–baby wearing goes hand-in-hand with swaddling to help calm your baby and help your baby sleep well. We can help you find the right size and style. Most sling manufacturers recommend measuring from your shoulder diagonally to your hip to figure your size. While that is a good general guideline, we find that it helps to actually try on a size up and down in all the styles to find the best fit. If you’ll hold on to the packaging and wait to wash the sling, we are happy to exchange it if you are struggling with your choice after your baby arrives. Come by and see us first, though. We can usually help you make some small adjustments so you’ll be a successful baby-wearing mama!

Baby registry at baby coco is a wonderful, personal experience. We don’t just hand you a scanner gun and send you blindly on your way. One of our friendly staff members walks you through the whole store to help you select the perfect gifts for you and your expanding family. Our registry is not available online but we are happy to email or fax a copy of your registry to any interested friends or family members. We are able to send photos and take orders over the phone to make it easy for your friends and family to give you something you really want for your new baby. Gift wrapping is always complimentary. Hand-delivery is available at no charge in Central Austin. We are also happy to ship gifts anywhere in the U.S. Registry only takes about 20-30 minutes of your time. There is no need to make an appointment but weekdays are the best days to stop in if you’d like to spend extra time. Our nursery checklist will help you get started.
