Carrier is designed for greater comfort for both you
and your child, and more physical contact with your baby. Its design
allows the child’s weight to be focused on the hips (where mothers
have been carrying children for at least several thousand years). And
because you can tolerate additional weight in this position, you can
continue to carry your child even as they get older.
Facing-in position - Child Facing Toward You - Until your child is able
to sit upright, this is the ideal position. Since there is no material be-
tween you and your infant, it affords your baby lots of close physical
contact and attention, while leaving your hands free. In this position.
you can entertain or bond with your newborn by talking, touching,
playing or just making eye-contact.
How do you know if your baby is at the right height when worn in the
front? - You should be able to tilt forward slightly and kiss the top of
your child’s head.
When placing or removing your baby into or out of the carrier,
sitting down will make the procedure easier. Until you are completely
comfortable with the loading and unloading procedures, it is also
safer to do so over a soft surface.

Carrier also contains a handy accessory pocket for
keeping “essentials” close at hand (such as a phone, pacifier, keys,
etc.)
Backpack Position - Child Facing Forward - ”It’s like a piggyback ride,
but your hands are free.” When your little one can fully sit up on his
or her own, putting them on your back allows you to carry the child
comfortably for longer periods of time. In this position your baby is free
to check out what is going on around them and still know that you are
right there.
Wearing the carrier closer to your body and higher up on your back
(or chest when worn in the front position) will minimize stress to your
back and shoulders from prolonged use.
