Boba Hooded Carrier Cover

I have been baby wearing Z since she was born and love taking her for walks to explore the world around us. I have two carriers (will speak more to these in another review) and honestly could easily have more as they are super convenient both in and out of the house. Living in Edmonton, our weather can be challenging at times and this winter I tried to get creative on more than one occasion to take Z for a walk and keep both of us warm. I got a late start looking into baby wearing jackets/sweaters and before a family trip to Canmore, decided to invest in a sweater that would see me through the rest of our unusually mild winter and into spring and next fall. 

I purchased the Boba Hooded Carrier Cover and after the first use I was in love! This long sleeved sweater is good for both front and back carriers and while not the thickest material, keeps both Z and I warm by capturing our body heat. The great thing about this sweater is it gives you the ability to layer underneath so it can span across multiple seasons. There is an opening for both Z and I's heads to pop through and enough material to pull up a bit on Z's head to protect her from the wind if necessary. The hood for mom is a nice addition, but could use some sort of drawstring system to keep it from blowing off your head in the wind. The zippered pockets on either side are great for holding small items that you might want to take on your walk (phone, keys, money) and the side zipper makes it easy to pull on over top of both you and baby. 

If you are looking for a cozy, cost effective piece of outwear I would highly recommend the Boba Hooded Carrier Cover. We have used it almost daily since I bought it and as you can see below, in addition to providing warmth while exploring, it keeps Z toasty warm for a nap as well :)
