BabyBjörn Baby Carrier Original - City Black

Perfect for dads on the go

Padded shoulder straps make it perfect for dads on the go.

Knowing the strain that can come with frequently carrying a 26-, 15-, or even 8-pound baby, BabyBjörn developed this carrier with wide, padded shoulder straps that help to evenly distribute baby's weight. (You should ensure that the straps are adjusted correctly each time you put the carrier on, as baby's size changes and other users may have moved them.) Taller or bigger parents may want to consider buying the larger shoulder straps (sold separately) or the BabyBjörn Baby Carrier Active that provides adjustable lumbar support.

facing outward

When infants face outward, the built-in head support for newborns folds down in front.

A size adjustment buckle allows BabyBjörn's carrier to grow with baby—from as early as 8 pounds and at least 21 inches (about one week old) to a maximum weight of 25 pounds. Newborns first face inward using the adjustable head support to keep them stable, while older babies face outward with the head support folded down in front of them. The unique design allows the front piece to be easily removed so as not to wake a sound sleeping baby when taking off the carrier. The material is machine-washable cotton and the carrier comes in a variety of colors.

Another great feature of BabyBjörn carriers is their straightforward assembly and suggested adjustments based on baby's size and weight. This makes it easy for one person to manage baby and carrier when no one else is available to help.

Baby Product: Keeps baby close and parents hands free, Easy to buckle on, All adjustments are made in front, Wide, padded shoulder straps distribute weight evenly for comfortable carrying, All fabrics are Oeko Tex Class 1 certified material guaranteed harmless to infants

Do you learn better by watching rather than reading? Here is a chance to see how to transport your baby from screaming into serenity...in minutes. Watch as, step-by-step, Dr. Karp teaches new parent how to switch on their baby's powerful calming reflex. English and Spanish In "The Happiest Baby" Dr. Karp reveals a treasure sought by new parents for centuries... the "calming reflex" (the automatic "off-switch? for any baby?s crying). No wonder thousands of Los Angeles parents, from working moms to superstars like Madonna and Michelle Pfeiffer have turned to Dr. Karp to learn his secrets for making babies happy. Elisabeth Bing author and co-founder of Lamaze International "The Happiest Baby on the Block is fun, fascinating and convincing. I highly recommend it to all new parents."

This video is designed in NTSC not PAL or SECAM. It is meant for use in most countries in the Western Hemisphere as well as Japan, South Korea, Greenland, Guam, Samoa, and the Philippines.

BABYBJORN Baby Carrier Active - Sporty Black

Having spent nearly the last five decades innovating ideas for infants and toddlers, BabyBjörn is consistently tweaking their products to meet parents' high standards of quality, functionality, and safety. So it's no surprise that this BabyBjörn Baby Carrier Active is the leader of the 'packs. Parents who swear by the original, hands-free BabyBjörn carrier may be skeptical when hearing this style is even better, but it's true.

shoulder straps

Padded, contoured shoulder straps and lumbar adjustment make this carrier comfortable for the wearer.

Developed with on-the-go parents in mind, Baby Carrier Active offers increased back support by way of a sliding lumbar adjustment that conforms to your torso. (You should ensure that you have the carrier adjusted correctly each time you put it on, as baby's size changes and other users may have moved settings.) This extra support relieves stress on shoulders and back—which is helpful when you've underestimated the strain of carrying a 26-, 15-, or even 8-pound baby. This Carrier Active also features fully adjustable shoulder straps that can accommodate taller and/or bigger parents. The wide, cushioned, contoured straps help to evenly distribute baby's weight.

facing outward

When infants face outward, the built-in head support for newborns folds down in front.

A size adjustment buckle allows BabyBjörn's carrier to grow with baby—from as early as 8 pounds and at least 21 inches (about one week old) to a maximum weight of 26 pounds. Newborns first face inward using the padded, adjustable head support to keep them stable, while older babies face outward with the head support folded down in front of them. The unique design lets mom breastfeed baby discreetly, plus the front piece can be easily removed so as not to wake a sound sleeping baby when taking off the carrier. The material is a breathable, machine-washable cotton/polyester blend that keeps everyone cool and comfortable.

Another great quality to the BabyBjörn Baby Carrier Active is the straightforward assembly and color-coded latches. These features make it easy for one person to manage baby and carrier when necessary.

The height-adjustable handle prevents reaching and /or stooping, making for safer and more comfortable use; the front swivel wheels with locks and suspension provide improved maneuverability and control.

About Graco
In 1942, Russell Gray and Robert Cone formed Graco Metal Products, in Philadelphia, PA. For 11 years, the firm fabricated machine and car parts for local manufacturers. In 1953, Gray left the firm, leaving Cone as sole owner. Cone decided to manufacture his own line of products, but had trouble coming up with ideas. Enter David Saint, an engineer, tinkerer, and stained glass artisan who worked for Graco. Saint, himself a father of nine, was intrigued when an associate told him how his wife would soothe their tired and cranky baby while swinging in a backyard glider swing. Acting on this inspiration, he went to the drawing board and 18 months of hard work later, the world's first wind-up infant swing, the Graco Swyngomatic, was born. Graco sold millions of Swyngomatics in the coming years, becoming one of the world's leading manufacturers of juvenile products in the process. Today, Graco is a Newell Rubbermaid company, with 1500 associates worldwide. While a half-century has brought many changes to Graco, their dedication and commitment to designing and manufacturing top-quality products remains, and continues on.
