How To Wear A Mei Tie Baby Wrap Carrier Video

Front Carry
1. Tie the waist straps around your waist snugly, and secure with a double square knot so that the inside of the carrier faces out, and the panel of the carrier is down the front of your legs

2. Hold your child so that they almost sit on your belly. Newborns can have their legs tucked in froggy style.

3. Pull the carrier up over your childs back, placing a strap over each shoulder.

4. Place a hand on the child to support them while you bring one strap down over your back and around to the front again.

5. While maintaining the tension on this strap, use your other hand (there should be enough tension to hold the child in the carrier. If you are not comfortable with this get a spotter or someone to help you tie!) to repeat the same procedure with the second strap.

Back Carry (from seated position)
1. Spread the carrier out on the couch or a big living room chair so that the waist straps com off to the sides, and the back straps go up the curve of the chair.

2. Place the child in the center of the wrap, and tie the waist strap on snugly (Alternately, you can tie the waist strap and then place the child.)

3. Reach back and grab both shoulder straps from the couch while pulling them up and over your back, and the child close to you. You can cross the straps across your chest in an X or just over your shoulders like a backpack.

4. Tie your straps snugly together under the child’s bottom, or across their back.

Back Carry (from standing position)

1. Tie the waist straps around your waist snugly, and secure with a double square knot so that the inside of the carrier faces out, and the panel of the carrier is down the back of your legs.

2. Older children can be put on your back from squatting and telling them to hold like a piggy back (Shown). Younger children can be lifted on to your back by a spotter, or for the more advanced, simply lean forward and place the child on your own back.

3. Reach down (Carefully! A handy tip is to tuck the long straps into your waist band for ease of grabbing) and pull the carrier up between the legs of the child, and over their backs.

4. Still bent slightly forward, pull the straps up over your shoulders, crossing at your chest (or backpack style) and tying under the child’s bottom. Some find it more secure to go under the child’s knee before tying under their bottom.

5.Older children will like their arms out while sleeping children can have them tucked in.

6. You can cross the straps like an X across your back, or just over your shoulders like a backpack.

7. Bring these straps together either under the child’s bum or across their backs and tie again snugly with a double square knot.

8. Older Children may like their arms out. Newborns should have the panel fully up their backs so it supports their heads.
