Babies spend more time in a state of &#8220;quiet alertness&#8221; when we carry them, that is, the ideal state for learning. Their senses are stimulated in the best way. From our arms, babies see the world the way we see it, and not the ceiling above the crib or the knees of grown-ups from the stroller.

Carrying two babies at once, breastfeeding two babies hands-free, carrying your baby while dealing with your older child are solutions that will definitely make your life easier!<\/p>\n<p>Children with disabilities or developmental delays benefit especially from babywearing. Parents of children with disabilities, developmental delays, or simply high needs, often give a lot of their time and money trying to offer their children the special stimuli they need. A wonderful, super-easy and economical way is babywearing! Let&#8217;s think about the stimuli the child receives when we carry it: it hears what we hear, sees what we see, moves the way we move, because it constantly sees our face, it&#8217;s close to our eyes, our ears, our mouth, close to us. The child is in constant physical contact.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/babywearing.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/mommyandbaby.jpg\" alt=\"Mom holding her baby in her arms\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Parents with mobility difficulties can also find significant help in babywearing. If they use a wheelchair, or are in a situation that prevents them (temporarily or permanently) from walking, they can hold their baby in their arms, rested and comfortable, with their hands free for their movement.<\/p>\n<p><em>Note: The sweet mommy in the photo needs to stay seated for a while.
