In a few months you’ll see that your child is no longer a newborn baby and is starting to gain some control over his body, although he still won’t be able to support his head (this happens
when the baby is about five or six months old), and your child may have grown so much that you do not need the leg insert any more. However, the neck support should still be used at this stage.
It is advisable to make sure that the neck protector always has the hood inside it so it is padded and firm enough to be used as a headrest. The hood is stored in the front inner pocket with the
zip closed, as it should not be used until the child reaches the second stage.
SECOND STAGE: YOUR CHILD CAN NOW SUPPORT HIS HEAD UNAIDED AND DOES NOT NEED THE INSERT
At around five or six months old, your child will be able to support his head by himself and will be more interested than ever in exploring his surroundings. Now is the time to store the leg insert
inside the Like. The baby’s bottom will fill the baby carrier better, you will be able to use all the positions offered by the LIKE and you will also be able to use the inner hood of the LIKE when
your baby is sleeping or if it is cold... etc.
To use the hood, simply undo the zip of the baby carrier on the top front part and take the hood out. Remember that using the hood means the neck protector does not work.
Always make sure that your child can support his head unaided. To fit the hood fasten the strips to the buttons on your shoulder straps. There are three positions to choose from so your baby’s
head is at the right height.
If you are carrying your child on your back, you can open the hood by reaching round and undoing the zip, taking the hood out and fastening it to your shoulder straps. The side strips on the
hood are fastened to one of the three press studs on your shoulders.
At this stage, you can carry your child in any of the three positions.
WHAT POSITION SHOULD I CARRY MY BABY IN TODAY??
1.- ON YOUR CHEST
Remember that your baby should be carried in the frontal position (on your chest) mainly when he is newborn or under three months old. And you will need to check whether you still need to
use the leg insert and/or the neck protector or support that the baby carrier has, so it is not possible to use the hood during this first stage.
2.- ON YOUR HIP
Remember that for this position your child needs to be able to support his head unaided and must not need the leg insert any more. So, the child will be at least five or six months old.
STEP 1.-Fasten the abdominal belt and unfasten all he vertical opening and closing buckles and leave the baby carrier hanging from your waist.
STEP 2.-Now connect the opening buckle part to the closing buckle on the opposite side. For example, if you want to carry the child on your left hip, connect the right strap to the left side.
STEP 3.-Move the baby carrier turning it slightly towards the hip where you want to carry the child, and pass the strap over your head and shoulders.
STEP 3. Position your child so he is facing you and lift him high up onto your chest so he is in the middle of the baby carrier. The child’s forehead should be level with your chin.
STEP 4. Raise the back part of the baby carrier and hold it snugly against your child’s back.
Warning: Do not let go of your child and make sure he is always held securely in your arms.
STEP 5. Hold your child with one hand and put your other arm through the strap.
STEP 6. Hold the strap you have put on with one hand while supporting your baby’s body with your other hand.
STEP 7. Move the child and the baby carrier to your back while using your other hand to gently turn the abdominal belt in the same direction until the baby is positioned on the middle of your back.
IMPORTANT: Keep hold of the baby firmly at all times during this step.
STEP 8. While holding the baby with the arm that has the strap on, put your other arm through the other strap and hold it firmly on your shoulder so the weight does not make it slip down your
arm. Keep holding the baby securely with your other hand.
STEP 9. Lastly, fasten the back straps that should now be on the middle of your chest.
STEP 10. If you want to use the hood undo the zip and take the hood out by reaching behind you and then fasten it to the most suitable press stud on the shoulder straps.
3.- ON YOUR BACK
Remember that for this position your child needs to be able to support his head unaided and must not need the leg insert any more. So, the child will be at least five or six months old.
Steps to follow:
STEP 1. Fasten the abdominal belt (this is always the first step for all the positions).
STEP 2. Check that all the strap buckles of the baby carrier are fastened and are vertical, parallel to your arms.
STEP 4.-Pick the child up and start to place him in the baby carrier. Support your child’s head on your free shoulder and gently slide his body down into the carrier until the child’s bottom
is firmly supported by the bottom of the baby carrier. Make sure there is no gap between the baby carrier and your child’s bottom.
STEP 5.-Next, take hold of the strap that is loose on your back and bring it forward while turning your baby’s bottom to position him comfortably on your hip. Fasten the buckle on the
other side. The straps should be gently crossed over your kidneys.
STEP 6.-Lastly, adjust the strap to the required length. Now you can let go of your child.
