How do I use my Meitai Carrier?

*IMPORTANT*

• Check your kokochoo carrier for wear and tear, do not use if fabric or seams are wearing thin.
• Do not use if baby is uncooperative.
• Do not use while cooking or near sources of intense heat.
• Do not use in a vehicle; children are safest restrained in a car seat.
• Remember that baby is an extension of you. Use caution when walking through doorways etc.
• Bend at the knees and keep a hand on baby when bending over. Baby could fall out if you lean over.
• It is impossible to list every precaution one should take when wearing baby. Please use common sense. Ultimately it is your responsibility to ensure your baby's safety.
• Kokochoo is not responsible for accidents or injuries that occur from improper use of the Carrier.

Instructions for Back Carry

Use when baby is able to hold his/her head up (around 3 months).

Tie shorter straps (found at the bottom of the carrier) snuggly around the front your waist.

Position baby in front of you.

Lean forward and carefully swing him around so that he is leaning comfortable against your back.

While still leaning forward, pull the top straps tight. There are 2 ways to tie the straps.

1) (shown in picture) Bring straps under your underarms and criss cross them along baby's back (for smaller baby) or bum (for larger baby and toddlers). Then tie in front.

2) Bring straps in front and criss cross them on chest. Then bring straps around baby's back or bum and tie in front.

After making sure that baby is secure, lean back and enjoy hands free baby wearing.

Front Carry - Suitable for Newborns to Toddler

1. Tie shorter straps at the back around your waist.
2. Place baby comfortably in front of you. Newborns are used to being curled up in utero and would probably be most comfortable 'froggy style'.
3. Bring body up covering baby.
4. Bring straps over your shoulders and criss cross them across your back.
5. For a larger baby, straps can then be brought to the front and under baby's bum. For a newborn, the straps must cross over baby's back for support.
6. Tie securely in back.
