✔ CREATES A NOURISHING HEARTFELT BOND: Carrying your baby close to your chest will feel like being wrapped in a loving embrace, which helps your little love gain a sense of trust & belonging. It is the most womb-like position & creates an intimate bond between you both. Even a colicky baby will be soothed quickly to sleep as you carry him.
✔ HEIRLOOM QUALITY FABRIC KIND TO BABY’S SKIN: Our custom blend of woven fabric is ultra-strong, lightweight, silky smooth, gently sheltering your baby as they sleep. Nalakai’s ring slings, kinder to the planet than cotton slings and crafted to be heirloom quality—an accessory that can be passed down through generations. This perfect fusion of sustainability and enduring design makes our sling a timeless choice for conscious families.
✔ SAFEST CARRY POSITION FOR CORRECT HIP DEVELOPMENT: Many carriers interfere with healthy hip positioning as the baby is held incorrectly or facing outward & this can increase the risk of hip dysplasia. Nalakai slings harness your baby in the M position so that hips can develop properly while keeping you and your baby comfortable. The front carry position massages your baby’s belly.
✔ REGULATES TEMPERATURE BETTER THAN A WRAP: Not all young babies can control their temperature well & can easily overheat in a wrap. Our ring sling baby carrier will keep you & your precious baby comfortable yet cool & won’t wrinkle your clothes as much either! The tail fabric can double as a nursing cover, so you can breastfeed your baby privately while on the go.
✔ 5% OF PROFITS TO FAMILIES IN NEED: You can help! With each purchase, we donate on your behalf to CEPIA, a charity supporting low-income families in Costa Rica. Designed by a mom of 2, our mission is to help families around the world. All ring slings are backed by a LIFETIME WARRANTY.

Care for their customers
Before purchasing this sling I researched it well, found great reviews and confirmed that Pura Vida complies with the CPSIA and ASTM standards. The fabric has been tested for strength and also for low flammability and the unwelded rings have been tested to be lead free and have been weight tested as well. Pura Vida has a Children’s Product Certificate showing their compliance that has been approved by the CPSC. Safety is very important to me and I was satisfied with Pura Vidas compliance with all standards. My baby and I love the slings comfort and support. The fabric is so soft and smooth without even wearing to break it in. The fabric is breathable and is perfect for hot days (may baby runs warm always sweating). The versatile fabric is also perfect for cold weather, by baby keeps warm with the fabric and my body temperature. I purchased this sling when my baby was 2 months old, she is now 4 months. Since purchasing the sling I used it just about everyday. This was the perfect solution for bonding using skin to skin contact in her early newborn stage and loved how silky the fabric would lay on her supple newborn skin. I would twist the tail end for that extra support on her newborn neck. Even now she falls straight to sleep when I’m baby wearing. I just fell in love with this sling. Everywhere I would go people would comment on how stylish and beautiful the sling was. I just had to rave about it to family and even complete strangers. I even made a new mommy friend while shopping she adored my sling and I gave her all the details even helped her search for it on Amazon. People thought that I worked for Pura Vida! I was like I wish!!!! I love this sling so much! I’m just a mommy that was so impressed with the quality and pricing of this sling. I love the business owners story/bio on the Pura Vida website. I even tend to share her story! If you love to support small family businesses here it is! Most importantly I’d like to share a story on a more personal level, a few weeks ago my car was vandalized.On 4/2/2018 I took my son to his music lesson in Chino California and my car was vandalized. My passenger side door window was shattered to pieces and my diaper bag and sons toddler bag was stolen. Inside my diaper bag was my beloved Pura Vida Ring Sling. My wallet was stolen as well because it was inside of my ring sling so I spent hours at the DMV getting a new license the following day and canceling all my credit cards and debit cards I wasn’t concerned about that because the Credit Card companies replace the cards and refund the money. The criminals charged over $2,300.00. Between my sons toddler bag and my diaper bag I lost about $1,000.00 in toddler and baby items as well as my personal items.This was the worst invasion of privacy of ever. I really couldn’t afford to purchase a new ring sling and was hoping Pura Vida would be able to offer some type a coupon or discount to buy another sling.With the loss I had taken and having to replenish everything that was already in my diaper bag and toddler bag it was a big burden. Including having to buy a new drivers license and paying the deductible for my car insurance to fix my car window. I was really hurt and sad that my sling was stolen, My most prized possessions I loved so much. I sent Pura Vida an email sharing my story in hopes of a coupon. To my surprise the owner of Pura Vida Ring Sling, Anne Ferris emailed me back herself. She offered to send me a new sling free of charge in hopes to help a fellow mommy out and put a smile on my face. As I read her email it brough tears to my eyes,I could not believe it. My heart was warm and overjoyed! I can’t thank Anne and Pura Vida enough for the love and support they showed me. Now I can continue to bond and be close to my baby. I’m definatly going to purchase any future Item from Pura Vida! I will contunue to share my story with others and want people to know how great this product is as well as how much Pura Vida cares about their customers. I hope this review helps people to decide to purchas ethis item and helps out Pura Vida as well because it is well desereved! Thank you for supporting this mommy in a very stressful and trying time.

100% recommend
We love this sling. It is very easy to use, it is comfortable and not harsh on your back. My daughter has been very comfortable in this since just 3 days after birth. She takes the majority of her naps in this sling. It comes everywhere with us and has saved us from fussiness plenty of times. Material is light and breathe able in the summer. The pocket is a huge bonus too. It can fit a phone, water bottle and key fob easily. You can also lower baby to breast fed and use the extra length as a cover! I would love to have two, we use it so often it’s hard to find time to throw it in the washer lol 10/10 recommend

Amazing!!! Starting to wear after almost 8 months of heavy daily use
I love this sling. Super comfy, soft, breathable, and my baby lives in it all day — I contact nap and do chores and go on walks with my baby in this sling, so if I had to guess I’d say she’s in it for 6-8+ hours per day every day. I can fit a few pacifiers/small toys and my phone in the pocket. Takes only a few seconds to put my baby in almost any position and also move her easily to nurse (not a sanctioned wrap position, but she loves sitting cross legged facing out and that’s the only way I could wear her for about 2 months). She is 8 months old now, and it’s starting to show signs of wear. Where the rings usually get snugged I’m seeing runs/holes/fraying and the ring coating has worn off. For the price and the heavy, daily use I am getting out of it I am super happy with it, but considering how much my baby loves her ring sling and that she’s going to get heavier and soon the fraying will become unsafe, I’m going to purchase a different more robust ring sling. But if you are just considering trying a sling, this is an excellent one to get you through most of your first year!! I highly recommend it.

Easy, comfy, adjustable with baby in!
I tried so many wraps for my baby’s big thighs, and this one was comfortable for both of us! This is my favorite baby purchase so far. My baby likes to be able to see what is going on, and has big thighs; this combination is apparently a horrible one if you want to baby wear. We tried the happy fabric wrap, it couldn’t be front facing, and was really a challenge to try and perfectly guess how tight to make it before putting baby in. Then we tried the infantino carrier. Front and inward facing so that was great, but my poor baby’s legs turned purple and had deep lines no matter how many ways and times I tried it! Definitely a no go. Then we went to BuyBuyBaby to try wraps/carriers. We tried two different ergobaby and one boppy carrier and they were more of the same; purple legs, deep red lines, unhappy baby!On pure faith I ordered this ring sling. It came in and it was soft, sturdy, and in my favorite color! The fabric is breathable and high quality(we live in a hot climate).It took me a few tries to get the lacing right, but after that I just left it in and now I can put it on so quickly and easily with barely any adjusting. I can carry my baby on my hip as well as facing my chest when she wants to sleep.Awesome product, and I have to say the “tail”(extra fabric at the end with pocket) really comes in handy for sunny days and a place to easily have my phone.

Absolutely love this sling! I previously hired a different make of ring sling and I couldn’t get on with it… I was about to give up on ring slings until someone recommended this one to me. So I took a risk and this sling is AMAZING ! it’s so easy to put on. Baby feels super secure. He’s so happy and content in it. I can breastfeed so easily in this sling too and neither of us get overheated. I even carried my almost 4 year old around in it with no issues. My husband really likes it as well. Loads of videos on their YouTube channel to help if you’re not sure how to use a ring sling. So glad I purchased!!

I loved this when my little one was a newborn it was all she would go in, I loved it as it was one the few slings you could leave ready and just slip it over both of us is she fell asleep. Also you can feed in it and still move about which was great for cluster feeding, however now she’s bigger (4 months) I find that our other carrier is more secure as I couldn’t get the hang of tucking the fabric enough and as she loved to try and straighten her legs in this and it’s not hugely safe but it’s lovely material and would still recommend because maybe as she gets older I will start using it again.

This is the first sling I’ve ever gotten on with. It’s so easy to use and my baby is so safe, secure and comfy in there, it doesn’t take her long to fall asleep. It works amazing for colic as well. Onces your ring slings in place you can pop it in your baby bag and just quickly put it on while out and about. My baby goes straight from her car seat into the sling when doing school runs or shopping.

It’s beautiful, comfortable and easy to use once you know how. Suitable from newborn right through the toddler years (my 3 year old nephew had a go in it and I use it for my 1yo). There are handy YouTube tutorials and I received excellent customer service from the seller. They’re very kind and helpful.
