Every mamalila babywearing jacket or babywearing coat is equipped with versatile inserts: one for pregnancy, and one for babywearing. This allows you to extend your mamalila for your baby bump and later your baby. The jacket extensions can easily be zipped into the jacket – in the front or on the back! Without the insert, you can continue to wear your babywearing jacket as a normal jacket.
All our jackets are based on the practical 4-in-1 principle and are therefore a pregnancy jacket, a babywearing jacket and a normal jacket in one. With all mamalila models, the baby can be carried under the jacket both on the front and on the back. To do this, the jacket can be extended to become a babywearing jacket by simply zipping it into the front or back zip. The jacket can be extended just as comfortably for the pregnant bump. And if you want to wear your mamalila as a normal jacket, you can simply leave the inserts out. Of course, the baby carried under a mamalila jacket in a sling or carrier is optimally protected from wind and weather. Even from rain. This is achieved through the baby insert, from which we have different designs, and which vary from product to product.
We at mamalila have been making babywearing jackets for over a decade. We made a fundamental decision right at the beginning: the production of our jackets has to happen under fair conditions and should be as sustainable as possible.
On the one hand, the carried baby is in close contact with the jacket, so freedom from harmful substances is particularly important. On the other hand, we not only want to protect our children with our babywearing jackets, but also the world which our children will inherit.
Therefore, social fairness and responsible use of resources are a must for us in production.
You want a babywearing jacket that accompanies you in everyday baby life and can cope with everything that happens: sudden changes in weather, chocolatey children's hands, muddy toddler shoes and spontaneous sitting breaks on the wet meadow? A babywearing jacket that you can wear all year round – whenever you need it.
Then be sure to take a look at our softshell collection!
Do you love to be outdoors, do you enjoy sports, are you often on holiday in the mountains, by the sea or in a camper van? All this is also possible with a baby and is great fun together – just adapt your activities to your situation as a mother or father. The mamalila outdoor babywearing jackets give you this freedom.
Your clothes, your style are important to you, but just as important is that your wardrobe goes well with your green conscience. Recycling, thoughtful sustainability, innovative materials that look great, feel great and don't compromise on weather protection: we have something for you!

As the developer of babywearing jackets from the very beginning and market leader for babywearing clothing, we have many years of experience in the design and conception of babywearing jackets and coats. Lots of customer feedback, the experience of babywearing consultants and midwives, as well as profound textile knowledge flow into the development of our jackets.
In this way, we can offer you not only a babywearing jacket that you like, but above all one in which you feel comfortable, in which you can carry your baby safely, and which is made with the smallest possible ecological footprint.
A jacket that you will enjoy for many years. Because longevity is the best sustainability.
Whatever the weather, with a baby you will always go out into the fresh air because it is good for both of you! An appropriate babywearing jacket makes it easy for you, because you simply take your baby with you under your jacket. In winter it's a must because of the cold, in summer it's a great way to protect your baby against the rain.
Look for the right babywearing jacket here depending on the season and for your desired area of use!
In autumn, when it gets unpleasant outside, a babywearing jacket is the best way to continue carrying your baby outside. Under your jacket they have protection from wind, rain and cold, and you don't have to stress about getting dressed when you go out. Babywearing jackets for autumn are lightly lined and can be worn into winter with an extra jumper underneath.
BBabywearing jackets and coats are an absolute must in winter: since your baby doesn't move by itself, you should definitely carry your baby you under your jacket when it gets frosty. Then nothing stands in the way of a relaxed winter walk.
The best thing about it: if there are two of you under one jacket, you keep each other warm!
You want a babywearing jacket for milder days, especially if walking the dog is a part of your every day, are often out and about in the fresh air, when hiking, Nordic walking or going for a stroll and want to take your carried baby with you. We have developed a range of outdoor babywearing jackets and rain babywearing coats: waterproof, windproof and breathable, so that you can always go outside with your carried baby, even in unpredictable weather.
Babywearing is wonderful: it gives your child security, and it gives you freedom and mobility. When out and about, babywearing is an uncomplicated way to take your baby with you. With a mamalila babywearing jacket your baby gets extra space in your jacket while your baby is being carried in a sling or carrier, just like at home. Going out is much easier because your baby is protected by your babywearing jacket and doesn't need to put anything else on – no matter if you are babywearing on the front or on your back.
At the same time your mamalila jacket is also a maternity jacket for pregnancy. And when you are out, and not babywearing, you simply put it on without the jacket extension – and your mamalila becomes a completely normal jacket.
The babywearing jacket is already there for you before the birth of your child, because with a pregnancy insert you can expand all mamalila babywearing jackets and have a fully-fledged maternity jacket.
As soon as your baby is born, you can exchange the pregnancy insert for the baby insert and use your mamalila as a babywearing jacket. It's best to have a midwife or babywearing consultant show you how to wear it so that you can tie your baby correctly right after the birth.
The jacket extension of your mamalila babywearing jacket can be used in the front as well as in the back, allowing you to carry your baby on your back. This is ideal when your child is a little older, heavier and taller, as you can no longer see over the child's head so well at the front. Be daring, try to carry your baby on your back – it's a lot of fun and very comfortable as it makes carrying much easier. Experience shows that your baby will fit under your mamalila jacket up to one and a half or two years.
At the very beginning, babies are still very small and can't really see out of the jacket – then it's best to just leave the top part open. As soon as your baby has head control, you can close the mamalila babywearing jacket over your chest so that you can also protect your chest and neck.
That depends a bit on you and your child: some are rather chilly, others are quickly too warm. In general, you should know that you and your baby are together under the jacket, and together you are warmer under the jacket than you are alone. Therefore, the babywearing jacket does not have to be as thick as your normal jacket is at that time of year.
Of course, it also depends on your area of use. Is it often very cold in winter in your region or do you have a rather mild climate? In addition, you can also consider whether you prefer to do an "onion" look and take a lighter babywearing jacket, for example the rainy day jacket, and wear a jumper underneath in winter, or whether you want to be snugly and warm and choose from our winter range.
Take the jacket in the size you normally wear jackets in. It should fit you well without your baby. After all, your mamalila babywearing jacket is a normal jacket that you can wear without your baby – and we are sure that you will be happy to do so. The baby insert will take care of the extra space your child needs.
That always depends on your personal situation:
If you are pregnant, it is worth it simply because you can also use the jacket as a maternity jacket.
If your baby is already born, it depends on how often and how long you like to carry it. Do you enjoy going out together, taking a relaxing walk? Would you like to have an easy way to spend time together with your baby? Then we strongly advise you to get a babywearing jacket, because it makes your everyday life much easier.
If you only use your baby carrier from time to time or mainly at home and not out and about, then a babywearing cover might be enough for you. This only protects your baby – you can put on your own jacket and simply leave it open. In this case, another person, for example dad or grandma, can also babywear and use the cover.
