georgiamagento2Thanks to all who came to Mod Mama’s Baby Carrier Workshop! We had a blast wrapping folks and their newbies in Mobi Wraps, pouch slings, mei teis and more. But the winner of the weekend, according to the new babies we met, was Pikkolo, a fabulous new carrier by CatBird Baby. It works like a Mei Tei, but using buckles rather than ties, it’s more comfortable than the Beco and cuter than the Ergo (with more carrying positions to boot).

Our carrier workshop moms and dads found it really comfy and the babies seemed to agree. I myself can never leave home without a pouch sling (a nursing cover, carrier, spit up wiper, on-the-go stroller blanket that fits in a diaper bag) but I love that the Pikkolo distributes the weight across both shoulders and allows for a backpack style carrier. You might just see me around town with Lola in a Pikkolo!

Tiny Mabel gets ready to snuggle in the Pikkolo!

We also had a lot of fun showing our new 2010 Uppababy Vista to expecting mod mamas. If you’re in the market, come in and get the full Becky preview of this rockin’ ride. With jumpseat and board, this stroller can be outfitted for 1, 2, or 3 kids.

Cheers!
