FAQs
How does the Orby Wrap help keep my baby warm?
The 2mm double-lined neoprene material traps a thin layer of water between the neoprene and the baby's skin. This layer is warmed by the baby's body heat, providing insulation and helping to keep them comfortable in the water for longer.
Is the Orby Wrap safe for sensitive skin?
Yes, the Orby Wrap is made from soft, stretchy neoprene that is gentle on the skin. It is also designed to help keep barrier cream in place, offering an extra layer of protection for babies with sensitive skin.
What is UPF 50+ protection?
UPF 50+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor 50+. It means the fabric blocks at least 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, offering maximum protection for your baby's delicate skin during outdoor activities.
How do I clean the Orby Swimming Wrap?
It is best to hand wash the wrap in cold water using a mild soap. Rinse thoroughly after use and dry flat in the shade. Avoid bleaching, tumble drying, or ironing.
What sizes are available for the Orby Wrap?
The Orby Wrap is available in sizes for infants and toddlers, including 0-6 months, 6-12 months, and 12-24 months. This specific product is for the 0-6 month size.
Can I use this wrap for diaper changes?
Yes, the Orby Wrap is designed to open flat with adjustable Velcro closures, making diaper changes quick and easy, even with a wiggly baby.
What is the main benefit of using the Orby Wrap?
The primary benefit is helping babies stay warm and comfortable in the water for longer periods, increasing their enjoyment and potentially the duration of their swim sessions.
Troubleshooting
Baby seems too warm out of water.
The wrap is designed for water use. Remove the wrap once swimming is finished to prevent overheating.
Velcro closure not holding securely.
Ensure the Velcro surfaces are clean and free from lint or debris. Re-attach firmly, ensuring the overlap is sufficient for a secure grip.
Wrap feels restrictive for baby's movement.
Loosen the Velcro closures slightly. The neoprene is stretchy, so a snug fit is key, but it should not impede natural movement.
Material feels stiff after washing.
Ensure you are using a mild soap and rinsing thoroughly. Avoid harsh detergents and allow the wrap to air dry away from direct heat.
