The many uses for the ERGO Baby Carrier in real life

Here are some of the things that I regularly do with a child in my ERGO Baby Carrier:      

hoover the house (she always falls asleep)

go shopping / grocery shopping

mow the lawn

go for walks

days out with the family

cook dinner & wash up

cuddle a poorly baby while still getting something done!

teach my baby sign language classes (my 16 month old has her nap in the carrier while I teach classes every Monday morning)

carry lots of stuff to and from the car without letting my child run away/ get run over

all airport, bus, train travel situations (recently used to keep my child asleep in carrier whilst I got some sleep sitting up in  the airplane seat!  (she slept all the way from Chicago to London in the cattle-class seat with me!)

take my older child (and myself) to a public loo without getting my precious little one anywhere close to any of it!

help my baby fall asleep when she is upset

breastfeed while standing / walking

clean the house

provide a cozy napping area for my children when we are out

attend church services & work in Sunday School

carry my 4 year old when she wants to be carried home from the shops

walking in the snow and ice, sandy beach, etc where a pushchair cannot get through

on a bike ride (I am sure that this is not recommended)

 

I think that you get my drift... this carrier has been a real lifesaver for me and I really like it's flexibility and usability in the "real world" of being a parent.  It even has really handy features, like being machine washable, really small / light when not in use, fitting all your different age children, little zipper pocket for your keys, purse, and a nappy...  and it is comfortable enough that I have often worn it for hours on end without difficulty (Did i mention that I used to teach all my classes with her on my back? - now she is older, she is only on my back when she is tired / sleeping during class! )

Most people who try the ERGO Baby Carrier on recognise straight away that it is head and shoulders above other carriers (I previously used a framed backpack... :0   ) because the ERGO Baby Carrier is so comfortable and flexible enough to be used in any situation.

 

Here is a reminder of ways you can use your Ergo Baby Carrier to Babywear:

 

WAYS OF CARRIAGE
The ERGObaby Carrier enables you to carry your child in front, on your back, or on your hip, thus giving you and your child freedom of movement as well as the closeness your child needs.

Front position:
More than anything babies love body and eye contact with the mother. They want to feel the mother's warmth and smell - this makes them feel supported and protected - which is very important for the baby's mental and social development.

Back position:
As soon as the neck of your child is strong enough to support the head for any length of time, your child can be carried on your back. When going for a walk, shopping, or every day just at home - your child is by your side, or rather: on your back. This gives you more freedom in everyday life, and at the same time strengthens the vital mother-child-relationship or father-child-relationship.

Hip position:
This position is perfect for the temporary carriage of bigger children since your child can see everything and have close body contact at the same time. Carrying a child on your hip is the most natural way to carry a child and makes the spread-squat-position possible.


DESIGN
The design of the ERGObaby Carrier supports a comfortable, secure, and healthy way of carriage.

These are some important design features:
- no rigid frame
- small pack size and small weight (600 g / 21 oz)
- cushioned leg cut-outs and optimized design for the bum area for very comfortable sitting
- ergonomically formed shoulder straps for a better fit and less pressure in the armpit area
- wide strap and wide buckle in the belly area for less pulling strain
- an extra wide waist belt balances the weight of the child from the shoulders onto the hip - for extra long carrying without back pain!
- the unique security elastic chest strap allows you to put the ERGObaby Carrier on absolutely safely and quickly
- front pouch with zip
- buckles and clasps are cushioned
- a flexible and fixable headrest holds your child's head when he or she is sleeping in the ERGObaby Carrier
- the ERGObaby Carrier is available in many different colors
- waist circumference from 25'' to 45'' (65 cm - 115 cm) and with the waist extension to 53'' (135 cm)
