Ninni Pacifier
|
$12.99
|
The round base contains several holes to ensure breathing safety, and is the perfect size to touch your baby’s cute button nose, inviting a wide mouth breastfeeding-type latch. Your baby can easily grasp the super soft nipple section, drawing it back to the soft palate of the mouth like a breast, where she can put in the same oral motor work as she does while latched on to the breast.

Have A Carrier You Are No
Longer Using? We'll Take It!
Many parents are curious about babywearing and carriers, but have a hard time finding one they love. Just like clothes and shoes - carriers in different brands can fit differently. At the same time, it can be hard to try out options because of their high price point.
That's why we are creating a lending library! We are gearing up to start holding monthly groups where folks can come and try on carriers to decide which they like best. Have any of the carriers below? Donate the ones you aren't using to our new lending library!
We Are Looking For:

Boba Bliss, Boba, X Boba Classic, Boba Air
-
Becco Gemini, Becco 8
-
Didysnap, Didyfix
-
Ergo Omni Breeze (current), Ergo Aerloom
