Behind the Scenes
Product Development: We Are All Ergobaby
After recently giving you an insight into our production facilities, we would like to go yet one step further back in the production chain. The creation of a new “Ergobaby” or the further development of an existing product from our company is always a joint effort. Because it is not only our chief developer Rodney in Maui who is involved in the creation process. By using our baby carriers, YOU play a major role in improving our products.
We take feedback from our customers, parents and, in some ways, babies very seriously and suggestions for improvement or confirmations always flow into the development of new and existing Ergobaby products.
When we then get down to the actual creation of a baby carrier, a stroller or a new sleep product, parents and their children come into play once again because the prototype of a new model has to be put through its paces. To do this, we conduct consumer surveys and tests in which parents

Spread a Little Christmas Spirit with an Ergobaby Doll Carrier this Yuletide
We are excited to announce our first ever Santa Service, bringing a little bit of festive joy to the holiday season! You can order your little love an Ergobaby Doll Carrier for Christmas and it will arrive with a special note from Santa to let them know they are firmly on the Nice List and to thank them for being so well behaved this year.
The Ergobaby Doll Carrier is the perfect way for children aged 18-months and older to join in with babywearing and show their best friend the love and comfort they had as a worn baby. It also leaves little hands free for other games or tasks, and with teddy less likely to be left behind when safely carried, hopefully means fewer tears too!
Two magical new prints have joined the range in time for Christmas: Galaxy and Enchanted, both designed to captivate and delight children of all ages.
To receive the letter from Santa, simply purchase a Doll Carrier from the ergobaby.co.uk

A Baby Carrier with a Little Extra Cleanliness
Ergobaby launch their first ever Anti-Microbial Baby Carrier
In response to parents’ ever-increasing need for a little extra hygiene and sanitation, The Ergobaby all-in-one Omni 360 carrier is now available in an all-new, super smart, anti-microbial fabric - to keep your carrier cleaner for longer*.
The Omni 360 Anti-Microbial Baby Carrier is made with safe and sustainable anti-microbial fabric with a Silver Ion treatment which neutralises odour-causing bacteria. This supports the elimination of stinky odours for a fresh carrier that lasts longer between washes, giving parents confidence, saving them time, and helping to protect the environment by reducing the amount of water wasted during the washing process.
Launching in a new Grey Diamonds print, the carrier also comes with a free, matching, anti-microbial adult face mask.
Silver is a time-tested anti-microbial used in healthcare, food preservation, and water treatment, as well as

Fair & Global: How Our Baby Carriers Are Made
Ever wondered how a baby carrier is actually made? What about a nursing pillow, sleeping bag, or swaddler? We're going to share a sneak peek into the processes of how our Ergobaby products are born.
As you might already know, the creative part of the production process takes place on Maui, which is the home of Ergobaby’s founder, Karin Frost. There, the product designers come up with fun features or innovative product ideas, which then eventually will see the light of day, piece by piece.
When the design of a baby carrier, for example, is ready, the next step is to logistically coordinate the supply of raw materials, to make sure they’re in the right place at the right time for making the new Ergobaby carrier. During this step, we’re leaving Maui for a place like India, for example. In India, you’ll find one of our trusted suppliers, with whom we’ve already worked for many successful years. In careful compliance with every safety standard,

How Quality Baby Gear Saves the Environment and Your Wallet
Baby gear is expensive. I know that firsthand. I’m about to have another baby, and it seems like with each child that prices keep going up. I’m not a coupon clipper by any means, but I do like finding good deals and I’m not opposed to buying off-brand products or accepting hand-me-downs that are still in good condition.
While it’s good to be a savvy shopper and set a baby budget, there are some baby items you shouldn’t buy cheap.
When does it make sense to pay a little more for quality?
Flour is flour. Spices are spices. Some people may disagree with me, but the only real differences between most generic and name-brand foods are the packaging and prices of the items. So when you’re at the grocery store debating between Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes and the generic brand, you should be fine going with the latter. The box isn’t as fancy (sorry there’s no Tony the Tiger), but in this case, the cheaper product tastes the same so there’s

Ergobaby Baby Carriers: Perfect for Any "Age or Stage" of Development
It can be tricky to know which carrier will be the perfect fit for your family, particularly if you haven't had baby yet and there are a LOT of options out there. To help you tell your Aura from Embrace and your Adapt from your Omni, we’ve put together this guide to help you pick the right baby carrier or wrap for you and your family. Read on to find out more…
Which baby carrier is right for me? Which one will my baby feel most comfortable in? Can I find one that will fit both me and my partner? Is there one perfect baby carrier for everyone? Let's start with the last question. On the one hand, a baby carrier that serves throughout baby’s entire development, from birth until they prefer to permanently explore the world on their own feet, does indeed exist. But… this kind of carrier might not necessarily be the "perfect" solution for everyone. Every baby is different – so are the people carrying them – and they all

We really believe that babywearing is for everyone. Whether you’re a first-time parent or a parent of 3, using a baby carrier or sling can help you every day. Here’s just some of the things you may not have considered…
Skin to Skin
It’s been well documented that skin-to-skin contact between a mum and baby helps with bonding and breastfeeding. It is also a great way for dad and baby to bond in the first few weeks after birth. Holding baby gently cradled in a sling allows for a more gentle introduction from womb to the world.
Our Aura Baby Wrap is lightweight and breathable, allowing your baby to be held comfortably against your body, so you can both enjoy those first cuddles.

Don't Forget Dads
Mum has been carrying baby for 9 months, so it’s no surprise that a lot of dads are eager to have their turn when baby arrives!
Our Embrace newborn carrier can be used from birth (min. 3.2kgs/7lbs - 11.3kgs) and is the simplest
