Ubuntu Baba

Organic h**p baby carriers for a calmer parenting journey. Est 2015. Designed and made in Cape Town. And with that, Ubuntu Baba was born.
(435)

As a sleep deprived and frustrated first time mom, Shannon McLaughlin, founder and creator of Ubuntu Baba, quickly realised that her baby needed her 24/7 and the only way she saw to make that work was to have him on her body...

She set out in 2015, purchasing 6 different baby carriers trying to find the perfect one. Struggling with all of them, she realised that to solve this problem, she would n

eed to design her own. Having a Dad in the backpack manufacturing business and a Mom with a background in fashion design, she had resources at her disposal and set out to reach her goal of creating an easy to use, breathable and comfortable carrier that could be used from the newborn days onwards and grow with her baby. After many different prototypes, and assuring her design team time and time again that; “okay, I swear this is the one!”, Shannon finally managed to design her dream baby carrier. With her baby boy comfortably asleep on her chest, she could now continue on her journey of motherhood with comfort and ease.

What makes an Ubuntu Baba carrier worth the investment?

Every Ubuntu Baba carrier is made with quality, longevity and people in mind.

From our premium organic h**p fabric to local South African manufacturing, every detail is carefully considered to create a carrier that’s made to last through years of babywearing and backed by a lifetime guarantee (on all stitching and workmanship).

We choose durable materials, ethical production, and local craftsmanship over mass production — because we believe the products carrying your babies should be made with care at every step.

Some babies just need a little extra closeness 🤍

For parents navigating reflux, those long days (and nights) can feel overwhelming — but having your baby close, upright, and comforted can make such a difference.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Anuschke de Gouveia (TrustIndex review). Hearing how our carrier helped bring comfort, calm, and a few more peaceful moments means the world to us.

To the moms doing it all —
the carrying, the comforting, the showing up.
Even on the days no one sees 🤍

The early mornings.
The endless snacks.
The contact naps.

The “I’ve got you” moments, over and over again.
Motherhood isn’t measured in grand gestures —
it lives in the quiet, everyday acts of love.
In the arms that carry, soothe and hold their little ones close through it all.

To the moms giving their all, every single day.
You are seen. You are appreciated. And you are doing an incredible job 🤍
