A ring sling is a type of baby carrier made from a long piece of fabric with two metal or plastic rings sewn into one end. Parents can thread the fabric through the rings to create a secure pouch for carrying their baby. This design allows for quick adjustments and easy on-and-off use, making it a popular choice for caregivers. Ring slings are versatile and can be used for various carrying positions, including front, hip, and back carries. They are suitable for newborns and toddlers, providing close contact and comfort for both the baby and the caregiver.
