Breastfeeding covers are a great tool for mothers who want to breastfeed their babies, particularly in public, subsiding a sense of feeling self-conscious or exposed, and providing a sense of privacy. They are worn over Mother’s shoulders, creating a cover around her with ample room for baby to be held inside and for her to maintain full view of her little one. In this way they allow for mothers to feel comfortable and confident in providing the best nutrients to their baby while still being able to enjoy the outdoors and social settings with them.

Not only do they provide privacy, but they also help to shield baby from distractions and keep them focused on feeding, which can help lead to a more peaceful and successful experience. They can also aid in creating a relaxed and cosy atmosphere for little one. Breast feeding covers are also a great way to protect your baby from direct sun and wind while feeding, as well as protect them from some germs or inquisitive people.

They come in a variety of styles, colours and materials, making it easy to find one that suits your personal style. Here at Baby City we stock Copper Pearl’s range, which features stretchy, lightweight fabric on adorable prints, with co-ordinating products available. This range of breast-feeding covers is designed to be multi-functional in that the same item also fits over car seats, which is ideal for keeping little ones protected from the elements and secure while out and about.

Breastfeeding covers are a great accessory and make for wonderful baby shower gifts. They are also a great way to help support and encourage normalisation of breastfeeding in public; through the great value they impart to Mothers. This in turn can provide mental support to Mums as it may give them a huge encouragement for them to go out with baby after birth and interact with others as they previously did.
