Ergobaby
This Saturday 1st July sees the grand launch event for ‘The Snug’, a social space in Sheffield, providing early years parenting support to families. Not only that, but it provides a space for other groups to provide services to families. First aid courses, yoga and regular 'Wrappers Delight' meet-ups to name but a few!
Friend of Ergobaby and leading figure in the UK babywearing community, Dr. Rosie Knowles, runs the Snug, the Sheffield Sling Surgery, a consultancy and sling library service, and the associated online Sheffield Sling Surgery Virtual Community. She has been trained by several schools registered with the British Association of Babywearing Instructors and her passion to support families is just incredible. If you ever want to
If someone came to you in the street and asked you what a nursing pillow was, would you be able to answer? Nursing pillows are actually, as the name suggets, cushions that help mothers with new-born children to breastfeed. Today, you will see a list of the top 5 in which one is clearly the best nursing pillow of the bunch.
Regarding the usability, nursing pillows work by providing a soft and supporting platform for babies, where they can easily lie while being breastfed. The pillow rests on the mother's legs, which is great because it means that the mother can take a bit of a break.
These pillows are a real must-have if you are a new mother and they can really take away some of the stress.
Imagine having to hold your child for upwards of thurty minutes, multiple times a day. It's just not something that anyone wants to do and, with the help of a nursing pillow, it's something that you no longer have to do.

In 2016 in Madurai, India Ergobaby celebrated our 100th order with Penguin Apparels, our India vendor, which has been like a family to us. The day was spent celebrating with traditional dances, personal accounts from Penguin Apparels team members and community outreach events which included dedicating a new water treatment system to a orphanage as well as donating medical supplies and equipment to those in assisted living homes within the community.
In great India tradition, this “small” gathering included over 500 people, an elephant, cake cutting and lots of delicious food.
We were honored to celebrate this milestone with them as a representation of our partnership over the last 8 years. With a partner so dedicated to community outreach, we look forward to many more years of collaboration. We recently sat down with Yassin Deo, from our supply chain team, and he told us about this amazing trip.
According to his sister Kay, as a child Keith Haring was always drawing. Although he’s associated with New York City, Keith was born in Pennsylvania. He graduated from high school and discovered quickly that he had little interest in becoming a commercial graphic artist, and moved to New York City in 1978 to attend the School of Visual Arts and be immersed in the city’s vibrant alternative arts community. Part of which was developing on the streets, and by 1980 he was drawing his signature line drawings in New York’s subways. Creating as many as several hundred by 1985. Concepts such as birth, death, love and war, immediately recognizable visual language spoke to not just a street audience, but galleries and museums as well. He even collaborated with children, other artists and in the presence of people so he could engage in real time.
Word quickly spread of his whimsical, colorful, relatable art that was easy to understand. Accessibility was
