A baby carrier is a great way to keep your baby or toddler close during your daily adventures. Whether you're taking a stroll through the city, exploring nature, or simply want to be hands-free at home, a good baby carrier makes it all possible. We offer many premium baby carrier brands, such as Artipoppe , Wildride , and BabyBjörn.
Read on to find out which baby carrier is best for you!
Baby carriers have been used for decades. There's a good reason for this: a baby carrier keeps your child close to you. This makes the child feel safe and they will calm down more quickly.
A major advantage is that a baby carrier can often be used from birth until your child reaches toddler age.
In addition, baby carriers promote a natural posture for your child. A baby carrier will also not cause unnecessary injuries for the parent, as the child's weight is distributed across the back, shoulders, and hips.
Many parents initially think that a baby carrier is a lot of hassle to put on, but this is actually not the case at all.
At Tiny Library, you will find various types of baby carriers, infant carriers, and back carriers, available for purchase with a buy-back guarantee or for rent.
A good baby carrier varies from person to person, depending on your body type, your child's age, and the intended use. Various carrying methods are available, each with its own advantages.
A baby sling is a flexible piece of fabric that can be tied in various ways, perfect for newborns because you can adjust the fit precisely. A baby carrier has pre-shaped sections and buckles, making it quicker to put on than a sling and ideal for quick walks. It's usually suitable from birth to toddler age.
For longer hikes or mountain hikes, a backpack carrier with a sturdy frame is the best choice – it's specially designed to carry your child safely on your back, often with extra storage space for essentials. A child carrier is more compact than a back carrier and perfect for everyday use like grocery shopping or urban walks, with less storage space and less weight.
For newborns, a carrier with good support and an ergonomic position is essential. The baby should be in the correct "frog position" with spread legs and a rounded back. From our range, the ByKay Stretchy Wrap Deluxe and Babybjörn Harmony carriers are excellent choices for newborns. The Stretchy Wrap offers the soft embrace that newborns know from the womb and grows perfectly with their growth, while the Babybjörn Harmony can be used from birth with its soft structure and adjustable support.
For a little more support, theErgobaby Omni Breeze carrier is also suitable from birth, with its ventilated fabric and versatile carrying positions. It's important that the carrier always respects your baby's natural rounded back posture and provides sufficient head support.
For long walks and extended hikes, sturdy child carriers are the best choice. The Thule Sapling child carrier offers excellent comfort for both parent and child, with padded shoulder straps, a hip belt, and ample storage for all your hiking gear.
The MiniMeis shoulder carrier is also ideal for longer hikes thanks to its ergonomic design and excellent weight distribution. These back carriers ensure your child has a clear view while you can walk comfortably without back pain—perfect for adventurous families who love to explore nature.
For newborns, soft carriers and wraps are ideal, as they conform precisely to your baby and support their natural curved posture. From our range, the ByKay Stretchy Wrap and the Babybjörn Harmony are excellent choices. It's important that your baby is in the M-position, with knees drawn up and a rounded back, and that there is sufficient head support.
With an ergonomic baby carrier, your child sits in the natural M-position: knees slightly higher than the bottom and a slightly curved back. The weight is distributed over your shoulders, back and hips, so carrying remains comfortable for you too. All baby carriers in our range support this posture.
Most baby carriers can be used from birth, sometimes with a newborn insert for the first few weeks. Backpack carriers are suitable once your child can sit upright independently, usually around six months.
That varies by type and by child. Many parents carry their child until they are about two to three years old. Backpack carriers and shoulder carriers last longer, up to the weight specified by the manufacturer.
For longer hikes, a sturdy backpack carrier is most comfortable. The Thule Sapling offers padded shoulder straps, a hip belt, and storage space. The MiniMeis shoulder carrier is also great for on the go, with good weight distribution and an unobstructed view for your child.
Both. You can buy a baby carrier new or refurbished with a buy-back guarantee: when your child outgrows it, Tiny Library will buy it back. You can use the calculator on the product page to calculate an estimated buy-back price before purchase. You can also rent for a short period.
For newborns, we recommend ergonomic baby carriers with good neck support, such as the ByKay Click Carrier or the Ergobaby Embrace. These offer the right support for the natural M-position and have special adjustments for the little ones. The fabric is soft and fits well to imitate the safe feeling of the womb.
Most of the baby carriers in our range are suitable from birth to approximately 2-3 years (15-20 kg). Some models, such as the Tula Toddler and Ergobaby 360, can even be used until your child is 4 years old. By renting, you are flexible and can easily switch to a more suitable model as your child grows.
