"It's most definitely the best carrier that I've tried and my 3 month old daughter loves it. I also have a 3 year old and it means that I can take her out and am hands-free, so can hold her hand etc. It's so comfortable and washes brilliantly and my husband also loves it. Many thanks again for making my life so much easier!"

Debbie (and Isabel, aged 3 months!)


"Hi, I've finally found the time to say a MASSIVE thank you and well done for your fantastic product. I wish I'd know about it for my first baby!
I found your website through a search engine when my daughter, Cora, was about three weeks old, she's 6 months now. I placed the order at 3pm and the sling was with me by 10am the next morning and it's the best thing I have ever bought and the one thing I would never do without.
Cora's colic stopped that night and she never suffered again, and I believe that's due to the sling keeping her close to me where she could hear my heartbeat and be calm. In fact I had to wake her for feeds as she would have quite happily slept all day.
Your sling is so comfortable to wear, even now that she is 6 months old and getting big you can often forget you are wearing it. It enabled me to spend time with my elder daughter so she hasn't felt at all left out. My husband isn’t happy but only because I'd hounded him to buy a new pram and we've hardly used it!!"

"From the first days my baby was completely comfortable in my Kari-Me sling - her little body was safely supported in the stretchy fabric and she loved the comfort of being so close to me. I found that carrying my baby comforted me and the physical contact helped me to bond with her. I was so busy with two pre-school children, it was wonderful to bundle up my baby, and still be able to look after the older ones. Also, I believe that having her "tucked away" reduced the jealousy from the older two, because I was still able to focus on them. 
Because my baby was in the carrier from the start, she has become used to being in it and if she is crying she calms down as soon as I put her in. If she is a little unsettled (eg teething, sore tummy) the carrier also works well as she is happy to accompany me around, peeking out, while I get on with things. I believe the Kari-Me has made my daughter a calmer, happier baby.
The sling is particularly comfortable for me, because the material wraps around your body, rather than having straps which cut in. Also the weight is spread, so it's kinder to my body!
There have been times when my baby has seemed inconsolable and I have felt awful as she cried, but as soon as she goes in the Kari-Me and feels the warmth and rocking motion she totally calm and soothed. It's an enormous relief and has allowed me to enjoy the early weeks so much more because my baby is happier! Your product has helped me so much, and that is why I have taken the time to put all this into words!"

"I have to say a huge thank you! Kari Me baby carrier is a godsend. My baby doesn't like to be put down so this makes doing the most simple things really hard. A friend suggested your product and it came within 2 days. My 6 week old baby loves it, and so do I and also my husband!
It means I can now make the dinner and sit with him and eat it.This is heaven, I feel like me again and know my baby is safe.
Thank you once again".

Louise Joannou and baby Lucy 6 weeks old


"I bought Kari Me when my daughter was 10 weeks old and I loved it right from the start. It's just so comfortable! Being able to feel her so close against my body, feeling her little feet kicking in my stomach was fantastic. She also loved it, it always made her really calm. The Kari-Me is really versatile, Her favourite position was definitely the one where she could face out. She loved taking in everything that was going on. Her daddy got a lot of fun out of it as well. The quality is fantastic, I lend it to a friend and she enjoyed it and at the moment another friend is using it. So it goes a long way and when it comes back, I will use it again".

Petra Eshuis, Bristol


"I'm really finding the carrier brilliant and it has made doing household chores so much easier. My daughter recognises when she is about to go into the carrier now and stops crying before she's even strapped in!! (she's only 3 months and already has learnt to anticipate the secure feeling it gives her) I love it!!!!
Thanks again."

Virginia France


"Just a quick note to say how much I am enjoying using the Kari-me sling. It distributes the weight so well it makes carrying a baby feel almost weightless! At five months we had thought that the window for getting maximum use from a sling was over, but we liked our first one so much that we have ordered a second one so that we can carry one twin each and move around much more freely than with a twin buggy. Its a great product and a pleasure dealing with you".

Ursa Massam and Mick Simon, parents of twins.  


"I love my kari-me sling so much and so does my baby. It ALWAYS settles him and makes my life so much more relaxed and easy. he's 2.5 months now and has spent most of his life in the sling! I have recommended it to loads of friends and been stopped in the street by lots of people to ask where I got it. Thanks for the difference you've made to our lives!"

 Louise Cobb, Oxford


"The Kari Me is excellent…Breast-feeding is so much easier and private …Dan feeds in it, sleeps in it and travels in it. I can do so many things I could not do when my older son was a baby. I recommend it to any parent: life with a baby doesn't have to be hard"

Adi, mother of Ron (4 years) and Dan (6 weeks), Cambridge


"I don't feel as if I am using a carrier, it feels like part of my body as though I were pregnant again…
On the third day of having used Kari Me and got used to it, I was wondering why I ever bothered with anything else"

Sari, mother of Noya (4 months)


"Since discovering Kari Me I have realised it is not impossible for me to carry Sonny (who is a heavy baby) for long periods…with Kari me we are both comfortable and don't have the hassle of a pram. Sonny loves being high up to look around".

Rachel, mother of Sonny (8 months), London


"Carrying my newborn is very important to me. I have already purchased two leading brand carriers in my search for a comfortable one. Then I found Kari Me - it's definitely the most comfortable one. I think it is the best" 

Neil, father of Oscar, London


"First of all, a big thank you from us all, Kari Me has made our life much easier. I have found it very easy to put on - easier than I anticipated. After one or two times it comes very easily. Using the feeding position means I can carry on with looking after my 3 year old, while the baby is secure and contently feeding. She is incredibly cosy and snug in the carrier. If she is not feeding she is pretty quickly lulled to sleep. The other great benefit is it is so discreet when I need to feed out of the home.
I have also used the Tummy to Tummy position, again she is very cosy and content. I like being able to pull across the extra layers if she needs more support or is cold.
Above all, it is very comfortable to wear, my back, neck and shoulders all feel fine, even after a few hours".

Camilla, mother of Alex (3 years) and Emma (6 weeks)

“Wow!! What a speedy delivery! Ordered on Thursday evening, Kari-me delivered this morning (Saturday). Was very excited to try it out, and little Isabella took to it straight away! At nine weeks, she already knows that over Mummy's shoulder is the best place to be, but with the Kari-me, Mummy can actually move about and do things while Izzy is happy!! Definitely like the Huggy position best (love the fact that you've got cute names for all the different positions!).
Thanks very much.” 

Pippa mother of Isabella (9 weeks)

Here are few reviews from health professionals who have reviewed and recommended the Kari Me baby carrier

"What I like most about Kari Me is that carer and baby look extremely comfortable. Kari Me enables good weight distribution as most of the baby's weight is taken around the carer's waist. In the sitting and lying positions used for young babies it gives support along the baby's body and reduces spinal compression.
Breastfeeding can be done discretely and on the move. There are no buckles or hard bits, it is soft, simple and comfortable. The ease and pleasure of using the Kari Me will hopefully baby carrying with all of its advantages…"

Jeannie Lorenz (YogaBirth teacher)

".. Kari Me keeps the baby close to the parent's body thus giving very good support to the baby's spine. Its unique design better distributes the baby's weight over the parent's shoulders and waist, helping to maintain the carer's natural posture and prevent potential damage to the carer's back. Kari Me's Side Position is better than holding a toddler on the hip mainly because the carrying is done with a straighter back and with reduced load on the parent's spine". 

Dr. Haim Glass (Chiropractor)


"Kari-me is a unique and versatile way to carry a baby. For the baby there is good spine and perineal support. The baby fits into the contours of the carrier's body, providing both physical and emotional support. There are no ties or buckles and therefore no places to cause friction and soreness.
For the carrier weight is well distributed across shoulders, back and waist. The baby is comfortably close the the carrier and doesn't pull against the carrier making transporting them easy for both baby and parent.
The variety of ways to carry the baby is excellent and the breast feeding position is too good to be true. I had to try it to believe it!"
