Every parent reaches a stage where their little love wants to come up, then down then up again. All in the space of five seconds. The NEW ergonomic Ergobaby Lift and Ergobaby Alta hip seats make carrying an active baby or a busy toddler as back-friendly as possible, while keeping things easy for those quick ups and downs.
A hip seat provides relief by taking the strain off your spine, arms, and pelvic floor. Sitting baby on the padded hip seat allows you to hold baby securely and effortlessly against your body with just one hand, while the wide waistband distributes baby’s weight evenly and comfortably. Ergobaby hip seats are quick and easy to put on and can be used from six months (Alta from four with the back panel) up to 20.4kg in multiple carry positions. Both hip seat covers are machine washable and have practical pockets for storage.
