New York, NY,  - Parents of premature babies will have a new tool to help their babies thrive during a defining period in their child’s life. In support of the March of Dimes, the leading non-profit organization for pregnancy and baby heath; My Baby Nest, LLC. winner of the iParenting Media Award 2008 for Product Excellence, will offer support in fighting the silent crisis of premature births in America, by donating a carrier to the March of Dimes for each carrier purchased through the My Baby Nest website. The March of Dimes will in turn donate the baby carrier to families in need.  

In honor of Mother’s Day, during the month of May, My Baby Nest, maker of the most comfortable and versatile baby carrier anywhere, will match by donating product, to the March of Dimes, for each baby carrier purchased through www.mybabynest.com.  

"The best gift you can give a parent is a healthy baby. It is my sincerest hope that, the My Baby Nest baby carrier can help parents cope with the fear and uncertainty a premature baby can bring to life; while at the same time contributes to the baby’s ability to thrive and overcome this adversity.” said Keren Levi, founder of My Baby Nest. “I am honored that the March of Dimes is accepting donations of the My Baby Nest baby carrier.”

My Baby Nest baby carriers are made of a specialty fabric that makes it the only baby carrier on the market that offers the necessary support a premature baby needs.  It is the premier carrier for babywearing.

Today, “babywearing” and/or “attachment parenting” are the latest “buzz” words in the American baby category.  Babywearing is the practice of carrying a baby in a soft carrier close to the body, just as mothers have been doing for centuries in other parts of the world. Through babywearing premature babies who are considered at risk or categorized as “failure to thrive” improve by being in close proximity to a carrying parent. Being close to mother encourages the baby to feed more frequently, keeps the baby warm, movement calms the baby thus enabling the baby to divert energy from crying to growing. Moreover, a carrying parent’s breathing movement stimulates baby's breathing, contributing to fewer stop-breathing episodes from the baby.
