Hi friends! My name is Anne Ferris, I’m originally from Chicago. In 2013, I quit my job as a corporate lawyer topursue my dream of living on the beach in Costa Rica. I moved to Tamarindo, Costa Rica, and over the last 4 years, I have worked on a tourism business, found love and started a beautiful little family. I created Nalakai Slings while pregnant with my second baby, Nala. My daughter was born when my first son Kai was only 18 months old. While pregnant with Nala, I did a lot of research into carriers because I knew that I would need to have my hands free to play with my toddler Kai. Inspired by the natural, no-fuss lifestyle here in Tamarindo, I immediately fell in love with the benefits of traditional babywearing.
In Tamarindo, the weather is HOT all 12 months of the year. With Kai, I had tried the front carriers and also wraps,
but they were just too warm. I also found that, despite the manufacturer’s claims, I was unable to secure either typeof carrier by myself. I always needed my husband’s extra set of hands to tie a tie or buckle a buckle in the back. If I was alone while he was working, too bad. For that reason, I decided to try ring slings. I ordered an expensive designer sling and was underwhelmed when it arrived. The 100% linen was thick and scratchy. It didn’t feel nice against my skin or my baby’s. I then discovered bamboo slings on Instagram. I learned that bamboo is not only incredibly soft, but it’s also strong and sustainably gown. Unfortunately, all the bamboo blend slings I found were incredibly expensive, the cheapest one I could find was almost $100!
I decided to make my own design and choose the best fabric, and soon Nalakai Slings was born. I want to inspire moms and dads to wear their babies close to their heart by offering beautiful, soft, strong and economical carriers. From my family to yours, I hope you enjoy your Nalakai Sling!

Author Marcie Macari had this to say about childbirth...
“Birth is an opportunity to transcend. To rise above what we are accustomed to, reach deeper inside ourselves than we are familiar with, and to see not only what we are truly made of, but the strength we can access in and through birth.”
The process of shuttling new life into this world is nothing short of miraculous, and the transformations and adjustments that take place within our bodies to make this happen are breathtaking.
