Child Carrier Backpack - What You Should Consider Before Buying

The child carrier backpack, such as any of the Evenflo baby carrier models and other brands, has evolved from the simple slings we've seen African and South American women use to keep their babies with them at all times.
They sure have come a long way from the rectangle of cloth to hang across the shoulders.
Today's models are ergonomic with the best carrying positions and support for the babies and with padded straps and some even with back support for the parents.
Child carrier backpacks are great for a number of reasons: * They let you take your baby pretty much anywhere, without having to worry if there is pavement for a stroller, stair cases to have to deal with and such.
* They provide more physical closeness with your baby; such making the baby feel safer.
* They are safer than strollers and the likes, since they keep the baby elevated and out of reach of pets and other small children, or even people that might stumble across a stroller.
* They keep your hands free to do other tasks, be it around the house or shopping.
* They take up less space than a stroller when not in use too.
* They are also cheaper than strollers and the likes, for the most part.
Over the last years the demand for child carrier backpacks, such the Evenflo baby carrier models and other brands, has steadily risen, due to their great practicality and for the most part great pricing.
So child carrier backpacks come in a great variety of models with all kinds of features and it's easy to get confused as to which one is best for your baby.
As a guideline, child carrier backpacks of good quality must have the following features: * A cushioned safety system to strap the baby into the seat, involving shoulders and hip * A headrest with comfortable cushioning.
* A padded harness, ideally a 5-point harness, for carrying comfort Most manufacturers of child carrier backpacks, baby slings etc.
provide these essential features; just make sure the model you like has them for sure.
After that the model you pick has mostly to do with the weight and age of the baby, what you're going to use it for (hiking, around the house), and what features you'd like to have included, such as a canopy, storage departments, with a metal frame or frame-less.
With or without a frame is probably the biggest difference among the child carrier backpacks.
Frame-less is usually used for child carrier backpacks (or front-packs for that matter) that are laid out for newborns up to 6 months old.
They usually have a back and head support panel and carry the baby in front of you, either facing you or facing away from you, depending on age.
Once a child sits up on its own a child carrier backpack with a metal frame may be more recommendable.
Often they are easier to carry and they can be set down on the ground, when you take a brake or want to feed your child.
These come for children up to 50 for some models.
