Great for newborns
Love this carrier so much! I’ve been using it daily since my son was born 2 months ago and it is perfect for the newborn stage. It is comfortable for both him and I, very soft fabric and easy to put on and put baby in. Would recommend to anyone looking for a budget friendly option.

Stylish, comfy, and safe for a newborn!
This is the best baby carrier I have ever used- the fabric is great quality and soft. Plus it’s one of the view structured carriers that is safe for newborns. Baby has to be at least 7 lbs to use safely. We love it! I can breastfeed in it easily due to the stretchiness of the fabric. It is easy to put on by myself and I walked far in it and had no back pain. Highly recommend to anyone with a newborn! I’m 5ft 2 in and it works well for my dimensions. Also the style is pretty cute rather than some of those ugly bulky carriers.

Perfect hybrid carrier!
I own a baby ktan and ergo baby 360. This carrier is the perfect combo between a wrap and structured carrier.I purchased this for my 5 month old who only contact naps in the carrier. I needed something supportive that wouldn’t kill my back but also lightweight and comfortable for baby.The ergobaby 360 was way too structured and bulky for everyday use at home. It’s definitely a great carrier for outdoor adventures because it provides so much support but at home it was uncomfortable for me.The baby ktan was great while baby was a newborn but I felt like it stretched over time and my baby was not sitting properly. Baby would slide around. Also the baby ktan would pull on my shoulders and the fabric would bunch up in the back making it very uncomfortable. I would be in pain every day.The embrace has softy stretchy jersey like material that is very comfortable! It provides light padding in the right places for me and baby to be comfortable. The should straps don’t pull on my back or shoulders. I’m easily able to sit on the rocking chair and snuggle with my baby. The straps are also not restrictive at all which allows me to move around and get things done around the house. The ktan would limit me to move my arms up and down so doing anything was very difficult and painful! I love that the Embrace clips on which makes it very easy for me to put my baby in and out of the carrier and it’s easy for family members to use when watching the baby which was something I struggled with the baby ktan. It’s very hot where we live and I love that the fabric is breathable so I can take my baby outdoors with it.I’m a petite woman (4”11” 113 lbs) with a long heavy baby and this carrier fits well. It could be a tiny little bit smaller in my opinion but it’s very hard to find carriers for petite women that don’t cost so much $$$. The ktan size xs fit me great but the 360 was way too large for me. I had to cross the straps and even then the straps would bulge out and didn’t fit comfortably. If you’re petite I would def recommend the Embrace.The price point on this carrier is great value for your money! I love the colors it comes with! I purchased the pink and it’s a soft pink color 😍. I do wish it came with a detachable hood like the 360! It’s also light weight enough that it folds down pretty small to fit in the diaper bag. The ktan and the 360 took up so much space.Overall I’m very happy with my purchase and my baby is comfortably napping as I write this review 🥰

Great for Newborn Stage
I really liked this carrier during the newborn stage. The material is soft, supportive, and feels high quality right out of the box. It was much more practical for everyday chores than a traditional wrap — easy to put on, secure, and I didn’t feel like I needed a YouTube tutorial every time I used it.For a brand-new baby, the fit felt great and my baby seemed comfortable and well supported. As he started to grow out of the newborn phase, though, the fit wasn’t quite as good for us. I noticed more pressure on my back and shoulders over time, especially with longer wears, which ultimately made it less comfortable as he got heavier.That said, for short outings, quick tasks around the house, or the early weeks with a newborn, this carrier is a solid option. I’d recommend it especially for parents who want something simple and functional without dealing with long fabric wraps — just be aware you may want a different carrier as your baby grows.

Favorite baby carrier
I have used several baby carriers (infantino, boba, wild bird) with 4 kids, and this has by far been my favorite. It’s simple to use, very soft but still structured, and has held up so well over the 15 months we’ve used it. I love that I can roll it up and throw it in my purse, diaper bag, or trunk organizer. It has also been super easy to keep clean even though it’s cream.

Great infant carrier
Works well for infants. Very easy to learn how to use and distributes the weight across your shoulder and back so that nothing hurts! It does stretch a little and is thick enough to keep baby warm but I wouldn’t recommend this material for summer personally. Lots of strap to fit any size mama.

Fast, snug, cute
A top 5 baby item.With my first child I only used a wrap. It made me feel secure, like he was nice and snug and close. He was also born in the winter in the PNW. With baby #2 being a summer baby, I was worried about her over heating and was getting annoyed with how much effort it took for her to get into the wrap. My husband likes the big ergo baby but that is so structured and I don’t love wearing it. I asked some friends what they liked and this was the one I went with. Boy am I glad it was. I love the appearance of this wrap. It offers the snug and secure fit of a wrap but breathability with the openness of the sides and nice cozy but thin jersey material. It is sooooo easy to get baby in this carrier, I can do it completely independently. She snoozes hard in this thing as well. I have considered getting a second because my husband now prefers this one and he is always massing with my settings, adding the 2 second adjusting inconvenience… I joke… maybe…

Tecido macio e resistente. Muito prático de colocar, boa ergonomia e sustentação cervical para o bebê. Minha filha está com 1 mês e por enquanto só tenho elogios.

The carrier is excellent, very soft and extremely comfortable for the baby.Also a great back support, I can wear it for longer stretches of time. Love the product.The only note if you live in a hot climate it might be a bit hot for the baby as the fabric makes them or warm and snug, so make sure it is not too hot for the baby.

We live in this carrier. Very soft but firm fabric, infinitely adjustable, great neck support for a newborn, and with the crossed soft straps on the back it has great back and shoulder support for mom or dad. It is crazy easy to use, and offers amazing comfort for parent and baby. Great “M” positioning for recommended ergonomic baby wearing. My 3 month old daughter has all her daytime naps in it, and has done so pretty much from her second week onward. It folds up really small, so it fits in the diaper bag. Also, if you’re breastfeeding this thing is amazing. You can loosen the straps, push baby off to one side and lower to nurse them, then switch sides. I can nurse her hands free while emptying the dishwasher or playing a game with my son, or even pumping on the other side, and when she passes out and unlatches, I can lift her by her bottom, tighten the side straps and she naps on my chest. For comparison, I also own and have regularly used ring slings, wraps, stretchy wraps, the original ergo and mei tai carriers with both my children – but this one is my favourite for ease of use and comfort.
