A comparison photo that shows you what a safe and optimal way of babywearing looks like.
✅ Nothing should cover the back of the baby’s head – airways need to be visible at all times
✅ The baby should be high on the adult’s hard part of the chest that you can kiss their forehead easily
✅ The waistband should be at or above the adult’s natural waistline (the smaller the baby, the higher it should be)
✅ The baby should be sitting in the carrier, with knees higher than the bum, not hanging from the crotch or having the thighs constricted
✅ The baby’s back should be gently curved towards the adult, not slumping down nor arched backwards
✅ The waistband should be level with the ground, not dipping forward
The picture on the left shows how many people wear their babies. Wearing this way not only makes both the parent and the child uncomfortable, causes lower back pain and feels very heavy, but also poses a risk of suffocation for the baby – so it’s very important to pay attention and adjust the fit!
If you struggle to get the fit right or not sure if you’re doing it correctly, why not getting in touch and we can work it out together step by step! 😉
專業孭B顧問同你一圖睇清點先為安全同最佳 (best practice)嘅孭法。
✅ BB頭後唔可以有嘢擋住，要成個頭露出嚟
✅ BB要喺大人心口可以錫到額頭嘅高度
✅ 腰帶要喺大人腰線或以上（BB愈細要愈高）
✅ BB坐喺孭帶，膝頭高過pat pat，而唔係吊住褲襠/勒住大髀
✅ BB背脊微彎向大人而唔係拗後
✅ 腰帶要同地面水平，唔好墜向前
圖左係好多人嘅孭法，咁樣孭除咗會令家長同小朋友都唔舒服、令大人腰痛同覺得好重之外，仲會對BB構成窒息嘅風險，所以一定要注意同改善！
