The real problem
You put them down for a second to get the milk out. That is all it was. A second. So they come back up on your hip. Through the kitchen. Round the shop. Up the road at half three, because the pushchair is being refused again today. By the afternoon your left arm has gone. You have done everything one-handed since breakfast, and you have got very good at it, which is its own kind of sad. Nobody warned you the tiring part would not be the crying. It would be the carrying.
What changes
They ride on your hip. Your arm takes all of them.
They sit on the seat. The belt takes their weight, across your hips.
One arm is gone for the afternoon.
Both hands are yours. You can carry the bags and carry them.
Wrapping and tying before you can leave the house.
Fasten the belt, lift them on, go.
Only you can carry them that long.
Your partner wears it. Their grandad wears it. Same belt, different length.
How it works
The wide belt sits on your hips, not your shoulders. Set it once in the morning and leave it there.
The seat is a firm shelf that stands out from your body. They sit on it. They are not gripping you to stay up.
It holds them against your chest so they can lean back, look around, and let go with both hands.
Someone told you they have to learn to be put down. Someone else said you are making a rod for your own back. The health visitor mentioned independence. Your mother-in-law said none of hers were ever like this. None of them are the one carrying a toddler round the shop at half four. Wanting to be carried is not something you caused, and it is not something you have to train out of them. It passes on its own, and sooner than anybody tells you. What you actually need is a way to carry them that your body can survive.
WHAT YOU GET BACK
01
The wide belt spreads them across the strongest part of you, so it is not hanging off one shoulder and one arm.
02
The seat is a firm shelf, 23cm across. Their bottom is on it and their thighs are supported, knees a little higher than their bottom. They are sitting the way they sit on your hip.
03
It adjusts, so your partner does not need their own. Holds up to 15kg, which is most children well past their second birthday.

FAQs
Customer support can help with product-specific questions before you order.
We have a 30-day return policy, which means if you do not like it, you can send it back and we will return your money. No questions asked.
From six months, and only once they sit up unaided. Some carriers claim newborn use with an insert. This one does not, and we would rather say so than sell you something you cannot use for half a year.
Up to 15kg. Most children are still comfortable in it well past their second birthday.
Cold wash only. Warm water can damage the padding in the seat and the belt, so keep it cold and dry it flat rather than putting it in the dryer.
The belt folds flat but the seat keeps its shape, so it will not roll up small like a wrap. It hangs on a pushchair handle or sits in the basket.
