Melkaj

The Melkaj is a custom made reversible mei tai carrier with padded straps and a built in sleep hood.

We have two Melkaj mei tais in our Bursledon Sling Library which were kindly donated by Melkaj.

I have used the Melkaj sling this last month and love it so much I am now considering investing in one.
My daughter is 4 months old and had previously been in a caboo or a woven wrap.
The Melkaj gave me the feeling of security that I had with the woven wrap but was much simpler to put on and off. The straps are a good length and were easy to tie even for me (size 16/18) and for my husband (6’1″) though he was not a fan of the “girly” design!
I found the sleep hood a little fiddly though rolled up it made a good cushion to support her head when she was tired.
The only downside I found with this sling was putting it on in a car park when it was/had been raining meant that the ends of the straps got a bit wet, but as this is likely to be the case with any wrap or sling that needs to be tied on it is not something I would count against it.
Overall – a good solid secure feeling sling that is easy to use.
