The Baby Sling Kangaroo Hold is an excellent position for baby to watch the world go by, once baby has developed proper head and neck control. From 4 or 5 months up.

Start Here
1. With the baby sling on, pull the inner rail of the sling pouch flat and high against your chest making a pouch. Make sure both rails of the pouch are even, as the baby will sit somewhere around the midpoint between the two rails.

2. Hold your baby facing out and cross his legs. His bottoms should be lower than his thighs. Lower the baby into the pouch with his bottom first. Ensure that there is fabric between you and your baby (inner rail).

3. Tighten the side of the tail connected to the top rail to adjust the snugness. The outer rail should end around the baby's chest. Voila, you have a kangaroo baby!
Congratulations! You have mastered the Kangaroo Hold!
Tip: ~ For older babies, their legs can be hanging outside of the pouch. However, please be a little careful if the baby's legs hang out, as a baby can fall out if they lean over too much.
