One of the main concerns among parents is whether carriers promote healthy hip positioning for baby, but Ergobaby’s carriers are ergonomically designed to hold your baby in a natural sitting position. The option shown here can be used from newborn to toddler, with four different sitting positions (inward-facing carrying, front carrying, hip carrying and back carrying). But with lots of strap adjustments, the set-up can take time. Once perfected, however, we were able to secure our newborn baby in the carrier without assistance, and quickly.
