We’re very much behind today’s more involved dads who want to bond with baby right from the start, and helping to make that as easy and natural as possible is one of the reasons we recommend Ergobaby: the parents’ go-to brand for over 20 years.  

‘The Science of Comfort, Magic of Connection’ is what every product in the Ergobaby range is about, and the Omni Deluxe baby carrier is a perfect example. It’s packed with features that will instantly appeal to design conscious dads, but also reassuringly straightforward, because Ergobaby have always understood that the last thing you want to think about is complex baby equipment.

But what impresses us most is the attention to detail in this clever carrier. To describe it as thoughtful is an understatement - it even comes in a choice of 10 different colours and two fabric options, another bonus for design conscious new dads. Plus, as well as its exemplary aesthetics, touches like four built-in storage compartments mean it practically doubles as a bag, which is handy when you’re out and about. Also, it’s made for sharing, thanks to easy-to-set strap indicators for different wearers.

Confidence is the best Father’s Day gift this year

A lot of parents feel unsure in the first few weeks with a new baby. Something as simple as carrying a child around can seem daunting, when it’s your child and suddenly you’re in charge of life’s most precious cargo.

But, as luck would have it, babies are also the world’s most sensitive radars and they pick up on the slightest hint of parental nerves - it’s part of their survival mechanism. So you might feel understandably unsure, but you need to exude complete confidence: welcome to parenthood.

Fortunately Omni Deluxe lets you start babywearing from birth, giving you welcome support during those early days and weeks, and making sure baby feels safe, secure and calm; almost as if you weren’t a brand new dad at all.

Babywearing creates effortless bonding for busy dads

Although it would be lovely to put everything on pause when you have a newborn, normal life usually has other ideas. Again, wear your baby and you have the best of all worlds: freedom to do what you need to do and hours of closeness, eye contact, cuddling, soothing and bonding.

This type of early days’ attachment is vital for baby and just as important for you as it nurtures strong emotional and psychological attachment. Without being dramatic, it’s life affirming and you definitely don’t want to miss out.  

Dads feel the ‘love hormone’ with Omni Deluxe baby carrier

It’s well documented that babywearing releases Oxytocin, ‘the love hormone’, in both mothers and babies. What’s less talked about is how it can do the same for new dads through skin-to-skin contact from birth, something else that feels natural and easy with the Omni Deluxe baby carrier.

Give the gift of sharing this Father’s Day too

The Omni Deluxe makes the practicalities of life with baby a lot simpler to manage as well, because, as we said earlier, it’s great for sharing, gives you free hands to get things done and can be quickly transferred from one wearer to another without disturbing any of baby’s blissful peace. Also, if you’re planning some family travel, you’ll be amazed at how easy everything from navigating the airport to having a sleep on the plane is, when you’re wearing and sharing baby in the Omni Deluxe.

Today’s dads are involved right from the start, celebrate that this Father’s Day

Like all Ergobaby products, OmniDeluxe taps into what fatherhood is like now, with dads more involved right from the start and looking for a closeness woven into every part of their day-to-day life. Of course, it’s about the emotional connection of babywearing, but Omni Deluxe is also about the reassurance of science backed design from a brand that’s been supporting parents for over 20 years.

We can’t think of a better Father’s Day gift for new dads, or dads to be, so we’re giving it our full backing, along with a saving of 15% with discount code MOTHERHOOD15. Happy Father’s Day and happy babywearing every day.
