Mei Tai Baby Carrier

  • Starts at $40
  • Concern of “tail” slipping
  • Difficult to put on
  • Only 4 carrying positions

A Mei Tai baby carrier is an Asian style baby carrier that has front panel with four long straps that can be tied around the wearer in various ways. While a Mei Tai does offer more usage than a Baby Bjorn, learning how to put one on and use in different ways can be difficult.

Some carries require the use of another person or soft chair. A HugaMonkey sling can be put on and taken off with one hand – even while you’re still holding your baby! No ties means no slipping. And the unique Shoulder Seam means you never have to adjust.
