Ergobaby turns 20: Design your own baby carrier to celebrate the anniversary

Oh, we are so excited, Ergobaby is celebrating its birthday this year!

20 years ago, single mum Karin Frost designed and sewed a baby carrier in her home in Hawaii so that she could carry her baby close and comfortably to her body.

Who would have thought back then that over 20 years later, she would inspire millions of families worldwide with her idea and support them in their everyday parenting?

Karin Frost certainly didn’t. With the birth of her Ergobaby Original baby carrier, she set a movement in motion that she would never have dreamed of.

Babywearing is no longer a niche thanks to Karin Frost. Today, so many mums, dads, grannies, granddads and caregivers are wearing baby carriers and we are extremely proud of that.

Wearing an ergonomic carrier is like a never-ending hands-free hug that promotes your child’s physical and emotional development.

Ergobaby has not rested on the original idea, we have been constantly on the lookout for new innovations and product improvements that make the lives of families easier and help strengthen the parent-child bond from birth.

From the first Original baby carrier to a range of award winning newborn essentials

The first Original Erogbaby baby carrier designed by Karin Frost could only be used from three to four months. Most of the current Ergobaby carriers can be used to carry your baby from birth for up to four years, in up to four different positions.

Today, Ergobaby no longer only offers baby carriers. The brand stands for a wide range of award-winning newborn essentials including baby carriers, nursing / breastfeeding pillows, strollers, sleeping products and the latest Evolve In Home Collection with ergonomic baby bouncers and high chairs that fit seamlessly, comfortably, and safely into millions of families daily lives. 

Ergobaby now supports you from day one and through all the development phases of your baby and toddler. Thanks to certifications such as our Aktion Gesunder Rücken e.V. seal, the recommendation of the International Hip Dysplasia Institutes, you can be sure that ergonomics, back health, comfort and quality are the focus of every product. Thanks to our ErgoPromise Guarantee, you can still use the purchased product for your second or third child without any problems or give it to other families through our sustainable Everlove programme.
