What Other Carriers Get Wrong - and How We Are Fixing It

We thought - carrying your baby shouldn’t feel like assembling IKEA furniture at 3 a.m.
You’ve probably been there: standing in front of a mirror, sweating slightly, baby flailing, trying to remember which strap goes where. You watched the tutorial. You tried. But the carrier just doesn’t feel right: for you, your partner, or your baby. So you adjust again. And again. Until eventually… you give up. Or settle. Or buy another one.

This is the cycle we heard about over and over again from new parents, experienced ones, even healthcare professionals. It’s what led us to create babyloop - a rethink of how babywearing should feel.
So, what’s going wrong?
Here’s what we see in many carriers today, even the so-called “ergonomic” ones:
1. The setup is confusing.
If you need a PhD (or a 12-minute YouTube tutorial) to put it on, something’s off. Parents are exhausted. Nobody wants a learning curve when the baby’s already crying.
2. One-size-fits-all… doesn’t.
Many carriers claim to “grow with your baby” but in reality, they just sort of... stretch. Or require inserts. Or need awkward adjustments that only kind of work.
3. They don’t adapt to real bodies.
A carrier might technically fit two parents - but that doesn’t mean it feels right for either of them. What feels secure on one torso might feel awkward, heavy or unsupported on another.
4. They put the pressure on - you.
Too often, it’s up to the parent to “figure out” a safe position - hip-safe, spine-safe, airway-safe - every single time. That’s a lot to ask in a moving, emotional moment.
5. They cost more than money.
Buying the wrong carrier isn’t just a waste of time and energy - it can cost you the opportunity to carry your baby with ease. Or for your partner to join in at all. You might end up with a shelf full of half-used carriers. And like so many baby products, it becomes a cycle of waste - both financially and environmentally.
So how are we fixing it?
