Hip position… G
*for babies 5
Fig G.1 – Hold the carrier in front of you with the back panel facing you. Rotate the back panel 90
degrees (rotate right if you want to carry on the left hip and left if on the right hip) so both sets of
rings are together to the outside of one hand and the straps are together outside other hand .
Fig G.2 – Put your arm and head through the straps on the side opposite the rings, the back
panel should sit on your shoulder with both sets of rings to the front on your chest.
Fig G.3 – Bring your arm on the ring side through between the rings so the outermost strap sits
behind you. Slide the back panel back slightly if required the rings at the front should sit about
10cm down from your shoulder
Fig G.4 and G.5 – Place baby up high on the shoulder opposite the rings and locate the lower
strap around your waist. Open the fabric to form a pouch for baby to sit in. Bring both baby’s
legs through the strap so that baby is sitting in the pouch and spread the fabric high up around
baby’s back. Ensure the fabric is spread completely underneath baby’s bottom and to the
backs of both their knees. Baby should be seated in the ‘frog-legged’ or ‘M’ position with their
knees higher than their bottom.
