“When our daughter was born, we wore her in a sling. We experienced how convenient babywearing was and how much it benefits both parent and baby. A few years later, our son was born and we discovered the ease of ergonomic carriers. We have tried many different carriers and never found one that completely satisfied us, so we had our Ba Noi (Vietnamese for Grandma) sew us one to our specifications. It was close to perfect,” recalls Polish-born, San Diego-based Ula...
“At first, we made carriers for friends and family. But whenever we travelled, strangers would inquire about our carriers. And that was just what I needed to finally focus my energy and passion. Since then, I have loved every single moment of it! We are now a family of five living in San Diego… still making carriers, still-keeping our children close, and making many memories! Today, it has become our mission to promote babywearing worldwide through our quality products, education, and community outreach in order to form a more perfect union between caregiver and child.”
Together with her husband Mike, who was born in Vietnam, she runs Baby Tula, a brand with a global following which offers baby carriers which are known for their unique and ergonomic design as well as blankets and backpacks. The chic baby carriers are from 100% cotton canvas and quality fabrics and come in a wide range of prints and colours (they’ve always got a new design on the go). Tula’s streamlined and fully adjustable design has been carefully crafted to ensure comfort for both the wearer and child, from birth into toddlerhood. They can be used in front and back carry position and provide an ergonomic M-position seat supporting optimal development for baby’s body. The carriers include a removable hood to support baby’s head while asleep, protect from sun or wind, and allow for comfortable breastfeeding. They also include a front pocket for storing on-the- go necessities. No wonder this is the carrier of choice for style-conscious mamas around the world.
