the hug-a-bub®  baby carrier

The makers of hug-a-bub® understand why babies need to be held and they know how hard it has become for parents in our culture to meet this need alone. They have designed a sling that actually makes it more convenient to wear your baby as you go than to continually stop what you are doing to push the pram or bounce the bouncer.

what is a hug-a-bub®?

The hug-a-bub® is a wrap-around, soft-cotton sling that holds your baby close to your heart, so they feel hugged even though your hands may be busy doing other things.

The hug-a-bub®, unlike most other pouches, is not a fixed structure. It has no complicated clips or buckles and is made from many metres of stretch cotton and employs a very simple 'tie-on' method.

the stretchy nature of our fabric, combined with the easy tying technique, beautifully accommodates your baby's size and your body shape, resulting in a flexible, secure and extremely comfortable carrier.

positions

hug-a-bub® has 4 different carrying positions offering a versatility which enables you to meet the different moods and needs of your baby, from prematurity through to toddler-hood.

features

head support
The wide shoulder wraps double up to provide the most secure support for babies' head and neck. It is ideal for newborns and premature or sleeping babies.

back support
the hug-a-bub's ergonomic design, wraps around your torso, from shoulders to hips, reducing unnecessary strain on your shoulders, neck and back. It is recommended by physiotherapists for those with some chronic back problems.

hands free
Due to its unique wrap style, the hug-a-bub®' baby carrier offers a firm and secure hold that allows you to have your hands completely free. When desired, you can even bend forward without your baby dropping away from your body.
