The You & Me Deluxe Infant Carrier is meant to be worn with babies that are up to 26 pounds, and it’s only meant to be worn on the front of mum or dad, although baby can face in or out. It has cool features like the ability to zip baby in or out, so you needn’t worry about waking them up at nap time, and it has all the lumbar support and height adjustments that you could want out of a carrier, plus reflective piping.

The Ultrasoft Infant Carrier is also meant to be worn only the front, and used only for babies that are up to 25 pounds. But the name says it all – this carrier focuses on comfort and softness and there are belts and soft cloths placed everywhere to make sure it’s just that!

The SmartSupport Backpack Carrier is by far the sturdiest of the three. It’s meant to only be worn on the back and is suitable for children up to 40 pounds, which is about the age of 4. It also has a sturdy metal frame that can be propped open so that baby can sit upright when placed on the ground. But that’s not to say that this model isn’t without its comfort zone too. Straps, buckles and soft padding galore – this carrier has got it all!

This stylish baby carrier comes in a pretty blue colour with matching blue stripes in the interior and is extremely comfortable for both parent and baby!

The Infantino Easy Rider baby carrier is worn in the front with baby facing in or out. Because the carrier is recommended for babies up to 20 pounds, it’s most recommended that baby faces in for the first six months and looks out facing the world after that! The Easy Rider has criss-cross straps in the back to relieve pressure and weight from the parent’s shoulders. But the best straps on this carrier have to be at the sides! With buckles on either side of the seat that can be popped open with just one hand, it’s never been easier to get your baby in or out of a baby carrier!

The Infantino Easy Rider also has a front pocket for you to stash your phone, keys, or extra change while you’re out and about. But this pocket isn’t big enough to hold everything you’ll need so you’ll still probably end up bringing a purse or baby’s diaper bag. The lack of storage is the only thing missing from the Infantino Easy Rider as it will let you take your baby wherever you need to go in style and comfort!

Every baby needs to be safe and snug when it’s time to go for a ride in the car with mum and dad. And there’s no better way to make sure that happens than with this car seat from Graco, one of the leading manufacturers in baby furniture and products!

This car seat comes in a deep midnight blue so that your child will have the perfect environment for having a little sleep along the way. And it’s suitable for children from the newborn stages all the way until their first birthday! It’s rear-facing, which is the safest way to take baby on your travels during the first year and it has a 3-point security harness to keep them even more safe.

You also won’t have to worry about fiddling and fidgeting to get this seat into your vehicle, or onto a stroller because the entire chair features a one-click system. This means that one click will get the seat into the base, out of the base, and onto a stroller for when you’re going to the mall or for the time when baby’s just not quite big enough to sit upright in a stroller. And, when you place it in the car, there’s even an indicator light that will let you know the seat is in just the way it should be!

You’ll love the side-impact protection, the adjustable harness, its adjustable canopy, and the fact that it comes with a cover that is completely machine-washable! But the Junior Baby from Graco also has lots to offer your little one as well! The reinforced body insert will keep them from slipping while it keeps them in complete comfort and the fleece-lined harness protectors will also feel soft and snugly against your baby’s skin. Plus, for when your baby is just still brand new, there’s a head rest for newborns so you don’t have to worry about their small necks becoming injured due to a still-wobbly head.

Graco proves once again that they provide only the finest quality baby products that are safe and comfortable while still being loaded with features!

Freedom is definitely an appropriate name for this baby carrier as it will allow you to run your errands and bring whatever you need along the way. Add to that the fact that this carrier will also bring superior comfort for you and baby and you’ll quickly see how LittleLife brings the Freedom you need!

This backpack style of baby carrier has an anatomically-shaped child’s seat built into the sturdy frame construction, keeping baby safe and comfy. It also has a soft bib for your baby’s face to catch crumbs or remnants from a snooze and of course, it can be taken off and thrown into the washing machine. And when your child isn’t eating or sleeping, simply attach a toy onto the loop designed just for that so your child will be entertained without constantly dropping their playthings! And should you find yourself in inclement weather, you can pop on the sun/shower canopy to ensure even more comfort for your baby. 

So does the LittleLife Freedom do anything for you? Certainly! Not only does it have the top and side handles, as well as an anchor point added for extra security, but it also has an air flow ventilation system so you don’t have to worry about breaking a sweat. The pack is also designed to keep the main compartment off of your back, giving you even more air flow and less heat. The back and shoulders are also well-padded so you won’t feel the strain there either and there’s tons of pockets so you’ll have plenty of space to stash all of your extra nappies,wipes, and even a change of clothes!

The Freedom child carrier from LittleLife really will be everything that you could ask for. With tons of storage space, comfort galore and all kinds of extras, the only challenge will be finding a carrier that offers you more!

The Ultralight Convertible Carrier from LittleLife has everything that you will find with its predecessor, the Ultralight Carrier but it has even more features that truly make it everything you could ever need. Plus of course, it all folds up into a backpack, making it easier to take with you on long trips in the car or just when your little one wants to get down and stretch their legs for a bit. 

Your baby will be extremely comfortable in this carrier with an anatomically-shaped seat plus a comfort bib that will keep their tiny face protected. When the bib gets dirty, it comes off easily and can be thrown in the wash for the next trip! Baby will also have lots to do with the easy-access toy loop that can easily attach to most toys. What this carrier doesn’t have that the non-convertible option offers is stirrups that come right with the carrier but the Ultralight Convertible does have stirrup attachments so you can clip them on when your child’s legs become too long to sit comfortably without them. 

And you’ll be comfortable too with the padding that’s placed strategically in the back and shoulders so that you don’t feel any strain from the pack. And there’s also an anchor point so that you can feel safe placing your child inside it and the top handles will let you pick up this carrier and go – whether it’s unfolded into a carrier or all zipped up into a backpack! The LittleLife Ultralight Convertible Carrier is definitely a must-have for busy parents and children that always find themselves on the move!

The Discoverer Child Carrier from LittleLife is a new design for 2009 and it comes with many features that claim to make it one of the best baby carriers of 2009. The carrier has a grey and green exterior that’s constructed from a lightweight fabric that’s easy to wipe clean and is also very durable. The inside is ergonomically shaped to fit to your child’s back and make the ride much more comfortable and there’s also a small bib that your child can rest their head on for nap time or you can wipe small spills up with after lunch time! 

The parent’s hip belt turns and twists so it moves when you do and eliminates much of the digging sensation that sometimes occurs with other carriers when you’re moving around. There’s also a toy loop where you can attach small toys and it has top handles that are padded so you can grab it easily when you’re on the move. Perhaps the best feature of this baby carrier however is the fact that it has a kick-out stand so that you should be able to set baby down for a moment. It’s important to note however that LittleLife suggests a foot is kept on the kickstand at all times for safety reasons which might render the kickstand completely useless. There are also no pockets or zippers where you can stash things so you’ll need another bag for storage! 

The Discoverer Child Carrier is a great carrier for when you have a short jaunt but with no storage it won’t be enough for longer trips and you also may not even want to consider the kickstand when thinking about buying it since you’ll need to keep one foot on it at all times anyway. That being said, the LittleLife Discoverer Child Carrier is a great carrier that comes at a great price and it comes from LittleLife so you know you’ll be buying quality!

The Cybex 2.Go baby carrier is the same great baby carrier that Cybex introduced onto the market with the 1.Go baby carrier but it has so many new features and bonuses that it definitely puts its predecessor to shame!

Probably the best thing about the 2.Go baby carrier is the number of different positions that your child can comfortably sit in while you are on the go. From 3 months and on your child can sit in the front, either on the hip naturally or facing inwards, which is especially great when it’s baby’s nap time! After 6 months, you have many more options with baby’s position including inward front-facing, the mobility seating position, or sitting in the back. It’s important to note that this baby carrier cannot be used before 3 months of age so you’ll have to invest in a smaller carrier until that time or simply snuggle your baby during the first few weeks! But if you need even more options, this carrier also has 3 different length adjustments that will further tailor it to your baby’s specific needs!

And in addition to the many different ways that you can carry your baby, they’ll also be much more comfortable with a cushioned seat that has not only been approved by orthopedics but also conforms to your baby’s form, keeping them safe and in extra-cushy comfort! There’s also a head rest so that baby’s neck will always be supported should they fall asleep and for after a particularly messy nap or snack time, the whole thing can be thrown in the washing machine!

The Cybex 2.Go baby carrier is definitely a vast improvement on the already fine 1.Go baby carrier but it’s important to know that there is no real storage or pockets of any kind with this carrier so you will need to bring another bag to carry all of baby’s stuff!

The i.Go baby carrier from Cybex is truly something so innovative that there’s been nothing like it to ever hit the market. This baby carrier uses a horizontal position for your baby so they can lie naturally and have their spines in proper alignment and without putting too much weight on them, especially at a time when they are so young and still developing. The company also claims that this is the preferred mode of carrying infants by orthopedists. Later on when the baby grows, the position can be changed so baby will be sitting in the more traditional, vertical position. 

The baby can lay in the carrier on the very first day they are born and can remain in the horizontal position until they are approximately 4 months old, or 6 kilograms. After baby is 4 months of age they can then sit in the vertical position facing in, and starting at 6 months baby will also have the option of sitting in the vertical, facing out position and the carrier can be used until the baby is approximately 15 kilograms, which is when they’ll be a toddler! 

The cover of the carrier can be thrown into the washing machine and it comes in many colours including slate (black); sand (brown); indigo (blue); and chile (red.)

The name really says it all! The Chicco Caddy Knapsack acts as a pack that will hold your child but also works as a caddy to tote everything around with you that you need. The child seat rests on a lightweight aluminum frame, which doubles as a stand when you need to sit the back, or the child down for a moment. Along the front of the carrier are heavy-duty padded shoulder straps that attach to the padded hip belt so that weight is distributed across the entire back and doesn’t solely rest on the parent’s shoulders. Although this does seem to be like sufficient weight distribution, it would be nice to see a wider hip belt and perhaps wider shoulder straps, especially on a pack that’s designed for extra-long treks such as this one. The shoulder strap does however have a handy cell phone pocket so it’s always within easy reach.

The Chicco Caddy Knapsack is suitable for children from about 6 months of age to until they are almost 2 years old, or weigh 15 kilograms. The height of the seat is easily adjustable so the carrier will grow along with your child and for when you just need to bring the carrier along with you, it folds up flat for easy transportation. The carrier also comes with a detachable pouch that can be carried on or off the carrier and is great for carrying toys, diapers, wipes, or extra snacks! Plus it has a sun canopy and a wind and rain cover so your baby will stay protected at all times! 

The Chicco Caddy Knapsack is a great carrier, with the exception that some may find the strap system uncomfortable after carrying the child for a significant time.

Hip carriers are becoming more and more popular, as parents continue to realize the benefits of carriers that allow you to hold your child as you would naturally – on your hip! Of course with these types of carriers there’s also the added support of cushioning and fabric. The Infantino Side Rider is just such a baby carrier and is made from soft fabric that will conform to the child’s shape and provide extra comfort and protection for mum or dad!

The Infantino Side Rider works by positioning a seat, made of soft fabric, around the parent’s hip and uses straps around the parent’s opposite shoulder as well as around the waist to evenly distribute the weight. Inside the carrier there’s a safety harness system so the child is always kept extra-safe and while the fabric is contoured to a child’s shape, there’s also lumbar support for the child to help reduce strain on the back. The parent’s hip support is also padded for additional comfort and there’s a side pocket for stowing your keys or extra change.

But that’s really where the features on this baby carrier just begin. The straps feature a tidy wrap system that helps keep excess straps out of your way and the Set & Forget System also allows you to only have to make the initial adjustment once and then save it for future use. There’s a release buckle that will make the carrier as wide as you need it when taking your baby in and out and the same buckle is also used to easily refasten. The buckling system is also specially designed so that the carrier is easy to get on and off. The Infantino Side Rider baby carrier is suitable for babies from 14 – 36 pounds, or approximately 4 months to well into the toddler years! A great investment in a great carrier!
