Subject: Canadian Businessman Creates In-Water Baby Carrier

Hi Shane,

Geoffrey Dalton, a Canadian businessman, has recently developed the WaterToT, a reliable baby carrier designed for use in water, maximizing safety, comfort, and ease of use. The WaterToT is the first carrier that has all the advantages of a landbased carrier, but applied and adapted for popular water environments. This is especially timely with indoor winter water activities for mom and baby sweeping the country. Made out of ultra-durable, buoyant 2mm neoprene fabric, the WaterToT allows parents to comfortably and securely attach babies from 8 to 30 pounds close to their body during water recreation. The even weight distribution through shoulders, back, and hips, allows for women of any fitness level to easily use and benefit from the Water ToT. With the cold weather keeping parents and their new babies indoors, WaterToT allows parents and babies to enjoy going to the swimming pool without the slightest worry.

WaterToT retails at 59.95 and can be purchased at www.watertot.com, by calling 403-244-TOTT 8688, and at specialty retailers throughout the country.

Please let me know if you’re interested in a high resolution photo, sample for consideration, etc. Thanks!
