Photo Tutorial (basics): Santa Toss

with a bigger baby you can start in a seated position (and with a toddler in a standing position) - I will show the 'newborn' start:

Find the middle marker

place the wrap on a pillow, bed, couch.. or the floor 🙂

put your baby on the wrap

the wrap should reach over the shoulders

with enough fabric at the bottom to make a seat

gather the wrap, pull it tight

your index finger goes between both tails, your palm is facing up

support your baby with the other hand (make sure to support the neck/head if you're wrapping a newborn)

bring your child towards your body, the tails between you & your child

lift carefully on to your shoulder, keep tension on the tails of the wrap

and 'catch' your baby's bottom with the other hand

support your baby's bottom

move your hand away from your body

and dive 'through' both tails

one tail on your left shoulder and one tail on your right shoulder, perfect!

that's it!
