Natibaby Notes & the Babywearing Orchestra
We are a music-loving family, and that’s why we wanted to make this wrap that looks like sheet music. There was nothing else like it at the time. But it couldn’t just be a nod towards music, it was for real musicians, so it had to be REAL music. Natibaby Notes is woven sheet music to Ode to Joy, the final movement of Beethoven’s 9th symphony, and a piece that most musicians have played.
In 2014 I got to work with some of the musical parents in the Tampa Bay Babywearing and Lakeland Babywearing Groups and with amazing director John Roquemore and his crew to film this short performance of Ode to Joy with their babies in the Ode to Joy wrap:

Available Nati Notes
As of this time (May 2016) I have Red Notes and Rainbow Notes in stock. I think I may run one of the early colors with the next weaving. Black/white or black/pink, maybe? Or something brand new?

Hey there do you know where I can purchase a semi structured carrier from birth that has musical notes or anything music related?? im in Australia and can’t seem to find anything, thanks

Hi, Pamela – right now I can get you a Nati Notes classic (black/white) Soft Structured Carrier from Natibaby. It is not for use from birth, however. I don’t know of one that starts at birth that has the music notes currently. I’m sorry! Can I talk you into a woven wrap, though? They are so cuddly and supportive and newborn-perfect! I will help you learn to use it and hold your hand 🙂 If you are interested in the Notes, you can find them listed under Natibaby (shop wraps menu above) or here is the link: https://wrapyourbaby.com/shop/exclusive-designs/nati-notes-natigo/
