Hip Carry using a Ellaroo Mei Hip Baby Carrier

Start Here

Step 1. The Ellaroo Mei Hip Baby Carrier will come to you threaded to be worn on the left hip. The long strap should always be toward your back and the shoulder buckle to your front. 

*Tip: Buckle the waist straps snugly around your hips (not your waist), with the buckle at your right hip. A snug waist strap will prevent baby's rear from dropping down lower than desired.

Step 3. Pull the seat up behind his back and jiggle him to be sure he’s sitting all the way in the bottom of the seat.

Step 4. While holding baby with one arm, reach around to the long shoulder strap.

Step 7. Tighten the strap up so that baby is pulled securely into your body. The easiest way to adjust the buckle is to lift baby’s weight with your left arm, while tightening the strap with your right hand. 

*Tip: when worn correctly, the entire body of the Ellaroo Mei Hip Baby Carrier should be upright, as shown in the picture on the right. This provides the best support for baby, and positions the carrier as intended.
