CHOOSING A BABY CARRIER
A baby carrier keeps your baby close to you, while keeping your hands free. Many parents use one from birth until the moment their child prefers to walk on their own. Which baby carrier suits you depends on your child's age, how long you carry them for at a time, and whether you mainly carry them at home or while on the go.
At Tiny Library, you will find baby carriers and wraps from premium brands such as Babybjörn, Ergobaby, and Artipoppe. You can buy them new or refurbished with a buy-back guarantee: when your child outgrows the carrier, Tiny Library will buy it back. You can use the calculator to calculate an expected buy-back price before purchase, so you have a good idea of what to expect in advance. You can also rent a baby carrier for a short period or for a holiday.

You should only use backpack carriers once your child can sit up well on their own, usually from around six months. Are you unsure which age applies to which type?
