The BabyBjorn Baby Carrier Active has the same excellent features as BabyBjorn"s other best selling carriers with greater support for your back and shoulders. The BabyBjorn Baby Carrier Active is designed for you to carry your child more comfortably for longer periods of time. The ergonomically designed padded shoulder straps work together with the built-in lumbar support to direct the baby"s weight away from your shoulders, reducing strain and providing comfortable support for your back and to distribute weight evenly. It can accommodate babies from 8 to 26 lbs and is machine-washable. Easy adjustments are all made from the front, allowing you to put baby in the carrier and adjust the fit and headrest. The front also opens completely so you can remove a sleeping baby without waking him/her. Use the scale on the label to adjust the sliding buckle to your baby"s height. The BabyBjorn Baby Carrier Active provides excellent support for your baby"s back and head, and helps keep baby"s legs and arms in a physiologically correct position. The BabyBjorn Baby Carrier Active also has adjustable head support for an individual fit and can be folded down so your child can face forward. BabyBjorn is sensitive to both children"s and parents" needs when developing products because BabyBjorn believes parents should feel confident in their choice of a functional product that is safe for their child. A family-owned company since 1961, BabyBjorn is committed to helping children stay safe while simplifying the lives of parents. The feeding, potty and child carrier products from BabyBjorn are used by millions of parents around the world and that is why BabyBjorn takes responsibility for every step of the development process and has adopted a long-term approach towards constantly improving and renewing its product range.
