This baby carrier is designed to grow with your child from 3 months up until they are a toddler. It typically supports babies from around 7 to 44 pounds, but always check the specific product guidelines to ensure safety and comfort for your child's particular age and weight.

Our guidelines advise against using a face-out position for infants under 6 months due to their developmental needs for head, neck, and hip support. For older infants, our focus remains on ensuring proper support and safety, and we encourage caregivers to consult with their pediatrician to determine the most appropriate carrying method based on their child’s individual needs.

To determine if your baby carrier is ergonomic, check that it supports your baby in a natural, seated position with their knees slightly higher than their buttocks — often referred to as the "M-position" or "frog-leg position", which is important for healthy hip development. Additionally, the carrier should distribute your child’s weight evenly across your body to prevent discomfort or strain, and offer adjustable features to ensure a snug, personalized fit for both you and your baby. High-quality, breathable materials and padded straps are also indicative of an ergonomic design.

Yes, newborns can be safely carried in a baby carrier if it's designed to accommodate them. An appropriate newborn-friendly carrier must offer adequate support for the infant's head and neck since they cannot hold up their head on their own. The carrier should also hold the baby in an ergonomically correct position, which means the hips are in a natural "M" shape, with knees higher than the buttocks to promote healthy hip development.
