The sling is able to support newborns and children up to the weight of 15kg so I used this wrap with both my one year old son and my friend’s 3 month old baby.

There is no elastane in their fabrics, as they have ensured that the wrap is knitted in such a way to allow for the stretch without the need for elastane. I found it easy enough to place baby in this most of the time, not so good when going for a walk from the car when it was wet.
