We've blended 29% linen with 71% of our tried and tested cotton to bring you a light and airy yet incredibly supportive woven wrap. The natural nubs of the linen create a wonderful feel which is grippy and so simple to wrap with.

The sling is completed in our new baby soft finish. Soft from the moment it arrives this blend is exceptionally hard wearing, pull resistant and immensely supportive for you and your child.

The Love Geek Story

DNA contains the hereditary material used to encode the genetic instructions used in the development and function of all known living things. Oxytocin is the love hormone. We feel its effects when we fall in love with our partner and our babies. Mitochondria cells contain one piece of DNA that is inherited only down the female line. Every person alive today has inherited their mitochondrial DNA from one single great-great-great-. …..great-grandmother, nearly 200,000 years ago.

Scientists have discovered the mitochondrion cell from the growing baby in its mother’s heart and other organs, and it has recently been found embedded in the mother’s brain. It is believed they may be acting as stem cells sent from the baby to repair the mother’s body. There is also some evidence that mitochondria are transferred from mother to infant during nursing. Some scientists believe there is an exchange of mitochondria between twins in utero and there is a possibility that younger siblings have their older siblings’ mitochondria.
