The moment I put my baby girl in the mei-tai she fell asleep I M M E D I A T E L Y!!! And it’s not the first time it happens, so I can’t say it’s a coincidence, it happens all the time!!!

I bought my own Asteraki in May 2010… for 1.5 years it was wash-and-wear… I wore my son constantly… I rarely used a stroller…
Since November 2012 I’ve been wearing my baby constantly… Especially this last month, almost day and night.

A big thank you, because with your creations we spent 29 wonderful months of cuddling and sweet carrying! We stop somewhere around here, since we’ve reached 21 kilos and 1.06 m and I can no longer carry him!!! If I could, I would send you a thousand and one photos… Moms, all the Asterakia are perfect… they just need the right positioning and you’ll enjoy them so much! Kisses from us, who had both a sling and a mei tai and of course a mesh for endless dips!

For me it was probably the most useful thing I bought, and it allowed me to come out safe both in mind and body from a terribly difficult first six months with my little one’s intense reflux, and later to do all the things I wanted with my older son too without getting tired. My little one went for walks in the sling, slept there, breastfed there; the carrier was always with us on every outing.

Thank you so much for your help on how to wear my ring sling!!! My baby loved it!! So did the pediatrician who saw him in it!!! She was thrilled and asked me for information!!! The little one is a living advertisement with the sling!!!

Our mei tai arrived yesterday; we were impressed by the attention to detail, the quality of the fabrics, and most of all how safe I felt wearing my son inside it! The little one and I already adore it, Stella thank you!!

Even though I admit I wasn’t much of a fan of mei tais at first, now that Andreas has gotten heavier, I’ve changed my mind. Even on long walks, it doesn’t tire me at all!

The best gift I gave to myself and my children. One of the few purchases I never regretted and that I’ve enjoyed so much.
Fenia
Wonderful Asterakia, for calm babies and rested parents! It’s the only purchase I would NOT trade for anything else for raising my child!
Evangelia
The best and MOST ESSENTIAL purchase!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Georgia
When you see your baby calm and happy… and consequently a happy family… words are unnecessary!!!!! The Asteraki was a great discovery!!!.
Eleni
The most useful purchase I ever made!!!!!!!! the only thing that saddens me is that I can’t wear it anymore!!! we passed the one-meter mark…
Sofia
Did the baby get hungry just as you’re getting ready to head out for errands? No problem!! You take it and feed it on the go in the sling!!
(I wish I had discovered the Asterakia before I gave birth, they would have made things incredibly easier for me in the early days with the marathon feeds, when I couldn’t get out to go anywhere and was stuck in bed all day long.)

I think it’s the most useful purchase I made! Highly professional, extremely polite, extremely helpful — and her slings are by far the best. Stella, hands down!

When Nikolas reached 6-7 months, I emailed her to ask about the mei tai. Anyone else would have easily made the sale to me — but Stella talked me out of it and showed me countless ways to keep using my ring sling correctly! A goddess, I bow to her!

[…] Her first time in the mei tai and she was over the moon!!! She saw everything from up high and was shouting with excitement the whole way! I should note that the carrier is from Asteraki Slings! It’s perfect, very handy and comfortable! What a fool I was not to get one sooner!!![…]

I’m crazy about the soft carriers I bought from Stella! They’re the best thing for the baby because their little legs don’t dangle like in the usual carriers, the hips are properly supported and your hands are free!

I’ve seen many slings but none like the Asteraki in quality and fit. After 3 years of countless washes it’s still like new… I consider myself very lucky that in my search for a sling back then I found Stella… The best purchase I made for anything to do with children…
The best mei tai EVER! Made in Greece. Made with love!
Katerina
I have one thing to say… 16 months later, we’re walking, we’re going wild, but the mei tai is a constant asset for sleep!!! It should come as a little package along with the nappies when you leave the maternity ward…
My little girl sleeps in her Asteraki sling and I write undisturbed!!! Stella Stamoulaki, I’m grateful to you for the immediate service and the mini seminar! thank you!!! you made me change my mind, I believed they didn’t suit me!!!
Stella’s slings are perfect! 🙂 the sling saved me many times during the first difficult months… long live babywearing!!!
if we hadn’t had the slings from Stella we would have fallen apart, especially in the early days… I regretted rushing to buy a crib, stroller, travel cot, but if you asked me what the most sensible purchase is, I would answer without a doubt the sling! And I should note, ones from other companies didn’t suit me at all!
Stella… I have no words for the mei-tai you made for my husband. I only have one problem: he doesn’t want to take it off! All weekend long he ran me ragged just so he could wear it!!!
The nicest purchase I’ve made for my baby girl is this carrier!!!!
And here we are when we tried our Mei-tai for the first time! We snuggle up in there, we sleep, we enjoy it so much! We’re still little and don’t look outward yet, but time passes and we’ll enjoy discovering the world even more! Stella, thank you, it’s perfect, very beautiful and practical!
He’s like a feather in the mei tai after all! Christos, 25 months & 15 kilos, in our little baby’s mei tai!
My ring sling is amazing. I was sad that I couldn’t go for walks… 6 km with my baby in the sling and if needed I can also breastfeed without anyone noticing… I wonder why I didn’t have one with my older child…
With my 3-month-old son in our Asteraki and we go everywhere!!!
Stella, since Tuesday when I received my mei-tai I’ve been thrilled! And so is my little bug! I put him on very comfortably, even on my back, watching the video with the mei-tai tied in advance, except that mine loves to pull my hair, so for now I’m avoiding it so I don’t end up bald… 😀 😀
Very practical and handy!!! I never regretted buying it!
Today I received my own ‘Asteraki’… It’s wonderful, nothing like the sling I had before! Well done Stella, it’s rare to find such professionalism combined with friendly, personal service. Thank you.
I think it’s the most useful purchase I made!!!! The lady, bless her, does amazing work!!!! Highly professional! She’s extremely polite, extremely helpful and her slings are by far the best (especially the ones with the different-colored binding are very nice). Before Stella I also bought a sling from another lady (I hadn’t discovered Stella) which turned out to be a big flop because the rings are too big, so the fabric doesn’t grip well and the child slips! What a waste of the money I spent!…. Stella, hands down!!!
Yes, I vote Stella too, a thousand times!!!! I got a ring sling that I used right up until the spring when the little one was 11 kilos, and I stopped using it because of pregnancy, but I also sewed a pouch from the instructions she gives. The lady answered all the questions I had about how to put the child inside. Bless her!
Well, I vote Stella hands down too. Now that my little one is 8130 grams and 70 centimeters, the mei tai has really sorted me out… It’s perfect, I made it exactly the way I wanted and dad wears it too. And it’s affordable compared to others, and handmade. Our sling is perfect too, but now I feel better with the mei tai!
I agree when it comes to buying a ring sling from Stella….. very good work and a good price it seems to me…. as for her service and help, I have no words…. she helped me a lot with the correct use… and now that my little one is in a colic phase the sling has literally saved us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I vote Stella too! Flawless work and a tremendous professional! When it comes to service I have no words! I got an adorable ring sling just before I gave birth, EXACTLY as I had described it to her… when Nikolas reached 6-7 months, I emailed her to ask about the mei tai as my little tyke had grown a lot and I was afraid it wasn’t comfortable… anyone else would have easily sold me the mei tai… but Stella talked me out of it and showed me countless ways to keep using my ring sling correctly! A goddess, I bow to her!
I agree with the ladies above!! I gave a sling from Stella as a gift to a mom, and seeing it in a photo is one thing, but in reality it’s another. Perfect work!! For myself, I use a sling my cousin gave me, bought from Stella, and it’s flawless!
Good evening! I went to my first babywearing meeting today! It was really lovely, in a space welcoming for parents and children, and there were pregnant women, 3-month-old babies and older babies, and even young kids! If a carrier interests you… I highly recommend you go!
Almost from the moment the baby was born we’ve been everywhere together, or rather on top of me! I’m crazy about the soft carriers I bought from Stella! Now I’m waiting for her to send me a purple ring sling! They’re the best thing for the baby because their little legs don’t dangle like in the usual carriers, the hips are properly supported and your hands are free without the feeling that the baby will fall out! Let me tell you, I felt like I was pregnant again! So tiny he was, curling up inside the carrier… Our baby has had incredible naps inside his carrier. We go to the supermarket, walks around town, various little errands, shopping for the baby. I keep it in my bag and whoosh, I take it out and go for our little walk. One day the baby got bored in the stroller and I immediately put him in the pouch! I even put him facing forward and our walk immediately became interesting. The ring sling and the pouch are one piece of fabric that takes up no space at all in mom’s bag! Our most useful “tools”! Our little carriers!
[…] I’m happy I joined the club, because it’s really a lovely feeling to wear your baby!! Come on, let the weather finally clear up so we can stroll around! And since I didn’t find the time to thank Stella for my mai tai, which is perfect… I’m doing it from here!!! THANK YOU!!!! Thank you for giving me this opportunity! […]
In the photo I’m sharing with you, Konstantinos is sleeping blissfully (with half-open eyes) in the ring sling Stella made for us! And a piece of advice for current and future baby-moms: our babies calm down (e.g. this photo was taken after a tiring day full of grumbling from Konstantinos) and “find their happy place” inside a front carrier. Try it!
[…] So I ordered a super Asteraki. I bought a ready-made one, I didn’t wait for her to sew it, I didn’t want to lose a day. So my mei tai arrived and I was thrilled. The design was cheerful and the workmanship amazing (I’m not the one saying it, it’s my aunt, the best seamstress in her own opinion, which means no one sews better, and since my aunt said it has good stitching…..[…]
Let me reveal to you that I wear my baby in one of Stella’s carriers. That means I breastfeed him upright while walking up and down the living room. This is the second carrier Stella made for me and since I got it yesterday I’ve been wearing it non-stop!
Now that time has passed and our little chap arrived, here’s also the photo from my super mei tai that Stella made with her magic little hands! Isn’t it super?? 🙂
[…] Slings really are very convenient, that’s the truth; I would recommend that every new mom get one to free up her hands, especially if she also has a second child, because then she’ll need it even more. The only thing I want to say is a thank you to Stella, because above all she is a wonderful person and truly loves what she does.[…]
