The Connecta Baby Carrier is a supportive, structured baby carrier with convenient quick-release buckles, well padded straps, and a flexible, unpadded waist to conform to the wearer’s body. One of the great features of the Connecta Carrier is the lack of rigid waist band. This does not mean lack of lumbar support. In fact – for many wearers it can improve the support. The close fit of the Connecta Baby Carrier offers extreme support for babies and big heavy toddlers alike!
