Woah!

Antonio Scarponi, founder of Conceptual Devices, has worked out a way to fold your regular hoodie into a laptop bag, baby carrier, pillow, backpack and strap bag. Memorize it to impress people in a pinch. Might also be good for that lazy look (come on, we know you can pull it off).

Position the wrap so that the top edge extends all the way up baby’s back. It will be right at the armpit if baby prefers to have arms out of the wrap. If baby wants arms in (or for a younger baby who needs that support), bring the top edge f the wrap up to baby’s shoulders. Bring the bottom edge of the wrap down under baby’s bottom and pull it all the way up to baby’s knees to form a seat. Aim for having the bunched wrap straps that cross behind your back lay over the bottom edge of the fabric that forms a seat under your child. Baby’s lower legs should be free to swing.

Can you use a backpack as a baby carrier?

A baby carrier, sling or backpack can be a practical way to carry your baby and keep your hands free. When choosing a baby carrier, sling or backpack, look for healthy hip positioning for your baby. Your comfort is important too.

How long can a baby be in a backpack carrier?

How Old Does My Child Need To Be Before I Can Start Using A Child Back Carrier? Most front baby carriers are usable from birth and then up to at least 6 months of age.

How do you attach a child backpack to a carrier?

While your partner grabs the back, you grab the front center handle, lift, then put your arms through the shoulder straps. If you do not have a partner with you, lift the baby carrier backpack with the front top center handle then rest the carrier on your upper leg while you put your arms through the shoulder straps.
