The Embrace is one of those rare buckle carriers that really does work right from day 1, designed with newborns and younger babies in mind to really support and grow with them for those first few crucial months.
This carrier works so well for newborns because it is made from very soft, slightly stretchy jersey material that really molds around both you and your baby to give a perfect fit. Much like a Stretchy wrap or a Caboo, but with the ease and intuitiveness of buckles. It's lightweight design ensures you'll be comfortable wearing it around the house for hours - barely noticing your wearing anything at all. And yet it still feels firm and robust enough for long trips out and about too.
Then as baby grows so does this carrier, both physically becoming longer and wider, and offering more positions as baby grows developmentally too. Offering a facing out position and a hip carry too. Consequently, the Embrace is a great option for anyone who loves the idea of the softness and closeness of stretchy wrap but is nervous about tying or prefers the security of hearing that "click" as you fasten a buckle.
