Is Koala Cuddle Band suitable for use from birth?
Of course! Koala Cuddle Band can be used right from the first few days of life, if your baby weighs more than 2.2 kg.
You can choose from two different tying methods, both suitable from birth.
What is Koala Cuddle Band’s maximum weight limit?
Koala Cuddle Band can carry a maximum weight of 9kg, meaning you can use it throughout the first year of your baby’s life.
Can I use the baby carrier during summer months?
Babywearing in hot weather is entirely up to you. However, generally speaking there’s no problem; the carrier provides comfort and will keep both you and your baby cool. 🙂
During summer we recommend:
• Wearing natural fabrics, that goes for both you and your baby, who can even wear just a nappy if it’s very hot.
• Taking breaks if you’re sweating a lot.
• Changing and resuming after a short break if clothing becomes wet.
• Placing one of our
30x30 Koala Soft Touch
muslin cloths between your baby’s face and your chest, it will help absorb any sweat and you’ll both feel less hot and sticky. Always make sure that your baby’s airways are clear.
Is Koala Cuddle Band rigid or stretchy?
Koala Cuddle Band is an elastic strip with a reinforced back support, recommended during the first year of your baby's life!
How to wash Koala Cuddle Band?
You can machine wash your Koala Cuddle Band at 30° with garments of a similar colour. We recommend that you do not bleach, do not iron, do not dry clean and do not tumble dry.

My baby does not want to go inside the sling, what can I do?
At the beginning it’s only normal to encounter a few difficulties, especially if you’re new to babywearing.
Most importantly of all: remember it's entirely normal, don't get discouraged!
Here’s what you can do:
- Make sure you are wearing your Koala Cuddle Band correctly by following the video you can find on this link.
- Introduce your baby to their sling gradually, for short bursts of time each day. This will help them become used to babywearing. Every infant adapts to new things differently, your baby probably needs more time to get used to it.
- You can ask for help from a babywearing consultant who will guide you step-by-step.
