Which carrying method is appropriate for what age?

We do not state any guidelines for a specific number of months or weeks for individual tying variations, because every baby has its own very individual development rhythm. Some babies can, for example, only hold their head upright after 5 months, and some can do it after only 3 months. For this reason, we have divided up the carrying methods as follows (assuming there are no illnesses or physical handicaps apparent):
  • The way of carrying starting from birth onwards
  • Carrying methods for when baby can hold its head by itself
  • Carrying methods for when baby can sit by itself
  • Carrying methods for when baby can hold its head by itself - for experts

We would also like to state briefly that not every baby feels comfortable in every variation, and would therefore advise you simply to try out the variations described and then only use the ones with which both you and your baby feel comfortable.
