P-sling's Debut in Australia

P-sling's newest retailer "Pipsqueak Petite" is located in a suburb of Melbourne, Australia.

Our relationship with this lovely store started when its owner purchased a P-sling for her own grandchild. Since then, they became the only retailer of P-sling in Australia. The great surprise is that most of P-slings were sold out just in their first week!

When you get a chance to visit the beautiful city Toorak, please drop by this store. You will be warmly welcomed.

Pipsqueak Petite
497 Toorak Road

Toorak, VIC 3142

Wishing you...

Mon Amour

We just received a surprise holiday gift from our favorite designers, Atsuyo et Akiko. These cute cushions would fit perfectly in a baby's room! 

Thank you, Atsuyo san, Akiko san! 

Hadagi Tips for Winter

Coldness and dry air can be your baby's biggest enemy in winter, just like us. But did you know when your baby stay warm at home with heaters, he or she doesn't need to be bundled up as much due to their high metabolism? Newborns can't regulate their body temperature as well as adults can, so it is important for parents and care givers to make sure a baby is comfortable.

With Mikihouse's signature Hadagi Collection, you can layer one short hadagi under a combi hadagi on your baby. So it is easy to dress or undress your little one as needed. Also, high quality supima cotton won't disappoint you after every wash.

We received more shipment from Mikihouse today.

A perfect Christmas gift for a baby.

December: Customer of the Month

We are excited to announce that Tiphini Axtell as December's Customer of the Month.

Tiphini has proven that you can still travel with your baby, whether to the White Sands National Monument or a snowy winter getaway. It is wonderful to see how she enjoys each season with her little one anywhere anytime.

Thank you, Tiphini, for sharing your beautiful pictures and your exciting journey of motherhood.

Are you the next P-sling Customer of the Month? Please send us your pictures to customerservice@pslingnewyork.com

Christmas Gift

Looking for something nice, fun and thoughtful? P-sling would make a great holiday gift for him, her or both. Receiving a gift that a baby can grow up with could be more meaningful.

Traveling with your baby

Traveling with a baby could be not as easy as we wish to be, especially when you have a couple of luggage filled with holiday gifts, diapers, toys etc... not to mention navigating a stroller at the busy airport. Also, if you are with an infant, you may need to feed your baby before you arrive at your destination.

Don't forget to bring a P-sling with you. Getting on and off the plane will be easier if you don't need to go through the whole process of checking or carrying a stroller. With P-sling, you can discreetly nurse while your baby is in the sling anywhere.

Carrying your baby in P-sling will also make it easier when you visit several families and friends or just need to step out for a stroll around the neighborhood. 

Travel safe and have fun with your little one!

We would love to hear your travel experience with P-sling. Please e-mail us at customerservice@pslingnewyork.com.

How to take care of your P-sling

Think about your favorite T-shirt or your baby's favorite snuggle blanket. 

P-sling can be treated the same way. You take good care of it so you can appreciate and enjoy it to the fullest. 

Here is the care instruction of P-sling: 

• Gentle cleaning method is hand-wash as always. But all P-sling is machine washable (Cold water in the "Delicate" cycle). Wash in a laundry mesh bag/net is highly recommended.  
• Use a delicate laundry detergent. No bleach
• Do not soak or bleach 
• Wash with like colors
• Re-shape while damp
• No dryer (because of stainless steel ring). Hang dry in a well-ventilated place
• No Iron. Our delicate fabric is sensitive to the ironing heat 

Please keep in mind that P-sling is a consumable product. 

One of the most common mistakes of handling the sling is to pull the fabric too roughly.

This could damage the fabric and your sling may not last as long as it should. 

Remember, once your baby is inside of the sling, rings get tighter to keep the baby secure. 

When you need to tighten the fabric around the baby, please gently lift your baby before adjusting the sling.  

We would be happy to help you whenever you have a question. 

Please contact us at customerservice@pslingnewyork.com if you have any concerns.

The panel can be easily attached or removed with zippers. 

So when you don't carry your baby, you can zip off the panel and wear this as a regular coat.

The coat has a removal faux fur trim hood and a single-prong belt.

Let the fall begin

Summer went by so quickly this year. We already need a jacket here in New York. But at the same time, fall is a great season to enjoy fashion. It is always fun to be in a new look. Why don't you pick a dark & rich color P-sling for the season?

Sleeping in a P-sling

Baby Finn falls sound asleep as soon as he is put in P-sling. He must be so comfortable being close to his mom, feeling the rhythm of her breathing and the sound of her heartbeat.

Thank you, Stephenie & Finn, for sharing wonderful pictures with us.

P-sling Dad

Proud new dad Phil looks very confident wearing SIJIRA P-sling with his baby girl in the cradle position.

Daddy's little girl Lillian just turned 2 weeks old today!

Elicia, Phil and Lillian - Thank you for sharing beautiful pictures.

Newborn Essentials: Changing Pad

Whether at a picnic or airport bathroom, changing diapers may not be always easy. Especially if the changing pad is too small for your squirmy baby.

Try patemm® pad.
This patented, award-winning changing pad was designed by a mom who had been frustrated by the smaller rectangular shape of diaper changing pads (that is why patemm pad is round!).

It is 28 inches, wide enough even for wiggly babies. Patemm's new collection is made of laminated cotton so it is machine-washable. And inside pockets will allow you to store a couple of diapers, baby wipes and changing clothes.

manhattan momma patemm pad - $58

available at Psny store (212-253-0630)

For inquiry, please call us at 212-253-0630 or e-mail us at customerservice@pslingnewyork.com.
