The award-winning Caboo +cotton blend baby carrier from Close uses soft, supportive light fabric so it is very comfortable to wear & easy to use, with no tying or buckles. Ergonomically designed, it gives the ultimate support for your little one, with the optimum carrying position from newborn & beyond, giving you hours of enjoyment & 'hands free' activity, whatever your day has in store. With soft wide straps that distribute baby’s weight evenly across both shoulders & a re-enforced back panel for added support, it is easy to put on by yourself. Simply pull through the rings to tighten, with no tying or fiddly buckles. There are multiple hands-free positions, including seated breastfeeding support & a hip position for older babies. The straps hold your baby from their head to the base of their spine with excellent head & neck support. Acknowledged as a “hip healthy“ carrier by the International Hip Dysplasia Institute, it holds baby in the recommended 'frog legged' or 'M' position to fully support their developing hips & spine. The padded cuff gives a little more support for baby & there is a handy zip pocket for you too. The Caboo carrier naturally complies with the T.I.C.K.S guidelines for safe carrying.
