Sharon Trotter, Midwife, Mother and best selling Author of “Breastfeeding: The Essential Guide” says:
‘I met Margaret at the Glasgow Baby Show in March 2005. She was wearing her 'Freedom Sling' and her gorgeous 10 month old daughter was asleep and cozy. I had been looking for a sling that was easy to use, comfortable for both mother and baby and also allowed free access for breastfeeding. The Freedom sling does all these things and I am more than happy to recommend it to all new mums.

What does this sling offer?
· Versatility as it offers 7 different carry positions including upright from newborn; a real necessity if by any chance you have a colicky baby.
· This particular lightweight padded sling type offers all the comfort of padded sling without the extra bulk. Our unique pleated shoulder design has style and neatness that appeal to the fashion conscious baby wearer whilst still allowing the fabric to spread across the back and shoulder for better weight distribution for the heavier baby or toddler. This features makes this sling the ideal sling for all sizes and for those of you who are a petite size, this sling is ideal for you.
· Like all of our ring slings, this sling allows for discreet hands free breastfeeding including breastfeed on the move if you have to!
· A compact, lightweight padded sling that comes with comfort and style without bulk.
· Extra comfort for your baby or toddler when being carried in the upright or hip carry position.
· Value for money as this buyer testifies:
Just wanted to send you a note to say how pleased I am that you are still trading, I attended the baby show at the NEC in 2005 with my partner and he fell in love with your slings when he wandered past the stand. He bought one- was shown a demonstration by your husband carrying wee Saoirse my how she's grown since we met her first! and has been carrying Jacob; who was then 5 months old; and his subsequent siblings in it ever since!
We are always asked where we got it from - mainly by Dad's who are lumbered with the back breaking tomy carriers who spot my partner carrying either of our sizable toddlers with ease!
It's a truly wonderful product, and I will be ordering more in the near future as all my friends are expecting! I can think of no better present!
May you continue trading for many many happy years!
Emma - grateful mum of two very heavy boys

Did not get name of guy who was so helpful when I rang the other day. I had wanted the murrons pouch due to simplicity but as size difference was so great between me and my wife I thought it best to check out first. Whoever took my call is a star! Thank you for being patient and explaining how we would be better off with a freedom sling and that they really were easy to use. Having had our first play with it we both cannot wait to try it properly in June when baby number 3 is due. Thank you so much and I hope your business continues to thrive. Please feel free to quote me..!!!
Every day we receive lots of emails from happy customers which can be viewed in our guestbook on our website as well as in our feedback profile. Here are some examples of the emails and comments we receive on a daily basis:
Hello, I bought one of your padded freedom slings from your eBay shop last week and I have to say, I think it’s great! I’m new to baby wearing but have easily mastered your sling thanks to your easy to follow instructions and have managed to carry my 21 month old son and my 5 week old daughter. I never knew it could be so easy as I always thought this type of sling looked a bit complicated! How wrong I was. Anyway, I would like to get another one!
Hi Margaret,
Just wanted to thank you for yet another gorgeous sling received this morning; fab colour by the way!; Freddy is going to love bobbing up and down in this one as much as the other one! You must get so much business by word of mouth as I only have to think about going out the front door and I'm asked where I got the fabulous sling from!! I am going to have to walk around with the label sticking out so that I don't have to keep repeating your e-mail ad! Brilliant for breast feeding also.
thanks again Maddy. This was Maddy’s second custom made sling from me.
Dear Margaret, Could I please have a black sling; my third; my second daughter now wants one for her birthday as her little one prefers mine to her very expensive one! Thanks again for fab product, best thing I have ever bought. Lesley
“Once again I am absolutely THRILLED!!! Would NEVER use any other sling!!”
Arrived within 23 hours of order! Excellent item and fantastic service, Thanks.
This Sale sling is only available in the following colours:
Red Black Stone
New to baby wearing and need help and advice?.... Have a look at my eBay review pages or feel free to email or telephone; same phone number as our credit card

Returns: If for any reason you are unhappy with your purchase then please return within fourteen days for a full refund. Buyer must pay return postage and keep proof of posting as we cannot be held responsible for items that go missing on the way back to us. Also remember to pop a note in stating reason for return and also the eBay user name you used to purchase.
Feedback: We will leave positive feedback for you as soon as positive feedback is left for us.. Customer service is of the utmost importance to us and we provide the best possible service. If for any reason you are unhappy, please contact us FIRST either by email or telephone PRIOR to leaving feedback to allow us to address any issues that you may have. We more than most understand how stressful having a new baby can be, but we have in the past suffered from less than fair feedback due to a buyers lack of sleep the night before! Please always contact us first to see if we can help.
Detailed seller ratings/stars: Many buyers are not aware that eBays policy on star ratings penalize sellers when they receive a 1 or 2 star rating: again we ask for your understand on this matter. We are NOT a large commercial concern but a small family based business run from home. We work long hours answering emails often way into the night so again if you feel the need to leave a 1 or 2 rating please email first to discuss your concerns as these ratings affect our livelihood more than feedback does.
Postage times: Our stated postage time is 5 business days from receipt of your cleared payment. Please note this is POSTAGE time NOT when you actually receive your package. We cannot be held accountable for delays by the mail delivery service. Most of you will see from our feedback that over 99% of our slings are received next day or within a day or two, however our stated time is the 5 days so please bear this in mind when leaving detailed seller ratings/stars.
Colour and or size: Failure to email your colour or size WILL delay the posting of your sling so please ensure that you provide these details. This can be done by email or via eBay. If we do not receive this information, we always email you via ebay in the first instance so please remember to check your eBay messages. If after a week, we still have not received the information we will send you out a neutral sling colour in standard or medium size.
