• The BABYBJÖRN Comfort Carrier is carefully designed to ensure you can carry your child safely and close to you, and still have your hands free for other things.

• The baby carrier provides excellent support for your little child’s back and head, making sure his/her legs and arms are in a physiologically correct position. When your child is a little older, the neck-rest can be folded down so the child can face forwards and look around.

• For children up to the age of 2, from 6 kgs/13 lbs (and at least 55 cms/21 ins) to 14 kgs/30lbs (12 kgs/26 lbs facing outwards). Approved in accordance with the Oeko-Tex Standard 100, class 1. Machine-wash at 40˚C. Wash separately. Use a gentle, bleach-free detergent.

• The transition from life in the womb to the outside world is an overwhelming experience for both infant and parents. The bodily warmth and gentle touch of a parent, along with the comforting sounds of heartbeat and voice, help ease stress and develop a sense of trust for the newborn.

That is why pediatricians recommend early bonding and close contact, especially in the important first months of life. BABYBJÖRN Baby Carriers make bonding with newborns easier for mums and dads, and are designed in cooperation with pediatricians to correctly position a growing infant.

About Oeko-Tex:
All of the textiles used by BabyBjörn that will come into close contact with your child are approved in accordance with the Oeko-Tex Standard 100, Class 1 eco-certification.

The Oeko-Tex test institute was founded in 1992. Since then Oeko-Tex Standard 100 has become an international standard for safety throughout the textile chain.

About Baby Bjorn Baby Carriers:

BabyBjörn’s first baby carrier was launched in 1973. It was called “Hjärtenära” (Close to the heart) and was a simpler version of today’s BABYBJÖRN Baby Carrier Original. It changed the way parents carry their babies.

“In the early 1970s, every other doctor you heard was going on and on about the importance of close contact with small babies. Suddenly, everyone wanted baby carriers and the only one available was a Japanese one,” remembers Björn Jakobson, BabyBjörn’s founder and President.

“BabyBjörn couldn’t afford an industrial designer back then,” continues Björn, “so we developed and tested a model by ourselves. We acted as the test family, to see how it worked as a part of a family’s everyday life.”

Other FAQ'S about Baby Bjorn baby carriers:

1.  How long can I carry my child in the baby carrier each time?

You can carry your child in the baby carrier for as long as he/she is content there. However, small children should not be motionless in the same position for long periods of time. That's why we recommend that you always pay close attention to your child’s needs and switch between the baby carrier and, for example, a baby sitter, stroller or crib.

2.  When can I start carrying my child facing forward in the baby carrier?

After consulting the pediatricians we work with, we recommend that you carry your child facing you in the baby carrier until he/she is around 4 months – or until the child’s neck muscles are strong enough to hold up his/her head.

3.   When can I start using BABYBJÖRN Baby Carriers?

You can use the BABYBJÖRN Baby Carrier Active and BABYBJÖRN Baby Carrier Synergy from when your child weighs 3.5 kg/7.7 pounds up to 12 kg/26.4 pounds. The BABYBJÖRN Baby Carrier Original Spirit, BABYBJÖRN Baby Carrier Original and BABYBJÖRN Baby Carrier Air can be used from when your child weighs 3.5 kg/7.7 pounds until he/she weighs 11 kg/24.2 pounds. The BABYBJÖRN Comfort Baby Carrier can be used up to the age of 2, from 6 kgs/13 lbs (and at least 55 cms/21 ins) to 14 kgs/30lbs (12 kgs/26 lbs facing outwards).

5.  How do I wash BABYBJÖRN Baby Carriers?

BABYBJÖRN Baby Carriers can all be machine-washed, warm (40°C). Use a bleach-free detergent. Do not tumble dry.

6. Is it safe for my child to suck and chew on the baby carrier?

Yes. All the fabrics in Baby Bjorn baby carriers are tested and certified in accordance with Oeko-Tex Standard 100, class 1 for baby products, the class that has the most rigorous requirements. The Oeko-Text label means that all the fabrics are free from health-hazardous substances and allergens.
A lot of children suck and drool on the baby carrier when they are carried facing forward. To avoid having to wash the baby carrier too often, it’s a good idea to use a BABYBJÖRN Bib for Baby Carrier. Naturally, this is also certified in accordance with Oeko-Tex Standard 100, class 1.

7. Is it OK for my child to sleep in the baby carrier?

Yes! It’s fine for your child to sleep in a BABYBJÖRN Baby Carrier. In the baby carrier, your child gets the closeness and warmth he/she needs to fall asleep feeling safe.

BABYBJÖRN Baby Carriers provide good support for the child’s back and neck, so you can carry your sleeping child for as long as he/she is satisfied.

However, small children should not remain in the same position for extended periods. That’s why we recommend that you always pay close attention to your child’s needs and switch between the baby carrier and, for example, a baby sitter, stroller or crib.

Since the baby carrier’s front piece is completely detachable, you can easily put your sleeping child down without waking him or her.
