Would you like the opportunity to try out a brand new sling and see if it works for you, knowing that you can return it after 2 weeks of use if you don’t like it or knowing this one will be yours to keep if you fall in love? Then our Try Before You Buy scheme might be the right option for you.

On our Try Before You Buy scheme we send you a brand new sling, which is yours to try for two weeks. You will pay the hire fee and a small deposit. At the end of the two weeks you can either pay the balance and keep the item, or return it. Simple!

Right now this scheme is restricted to Stretchy Wraps and a small selection of buckle carriers, however we aim to roll this out over a larger range. All items in our Try Before You Buy range are shown below!

This scheme is right for you IF

  • You’re fairly sure of what sling or carrier you want
  • But you’d like a bit of time to finalise your decision
  • And you’d like to pay some now and some later

This scheme is not right for you IF

  • You’re not sure about the carrier – we highly recommend hiring or speaking to us for a free phone consultation first!
  • If you’d like to try more than one carrier at once
  • If you’d like to split your purchase into more payments (you can find details of our payment plans here)
  • If you just want to hire
  • Stretchy Wraps
  • Buckle Carriers

Stretchy Wraps

Stretchy wraps available under this scheme are available for a two week hire at a cost of £10. Members receive a 10% discount

Before we send out the wrap you will be required to provide a £25 deposit. This deposit is required by members.

You will be sent a brand new stretchy wrap at the start of your hire. At the end of the two week period you may then choose to either keep the wrap or send it back.

If you choose to send it back you will do so at your own cost. We recommend using a signed for service such as Royal Mail First Class Signed For. Once we have received the stretchy back in good condition we will refund the £25 deposit via our normal process.

If you choose to purchase the wrap then there will be a small top up fee to pay at the end of the two weeks. This is listed on each item.
