Description

Babies love to be carried, but after while, this can take a toll on your arms, hips and back.

Tushbaby is a strap-free, ergonomic hipseat that evenly distributes your baby’s weight—so you can carry your little one longer and more comfortably.

Tushbaby helps you take a load off, literally, by reducing muscular strain on the spine while holding baby. The squishy memory foam seat supports and positions your child’s hips in the proper M-shaped position, helping to reduce the risk of hip dysplasia. It can be used in face-to-face, side-carrying and front-facing positions, and offers support during breastfeeding and bottle-feeding as early as infancy.

The wide belt features a plush pad and built-in lumbar support, which means more comfort for you. It also features roomy pockets to stash diapers, keys and pacifiers and has a hideable bottle holder and toy loop for on-the-go convenience.

It’s designed to fit 23”–44” waists, but you can add up to 24 more inches with the Waistband Extender (sold separately).

There a few key differences with the fabric types:

  • Standard Polyester ($85): machine washable
  • Vegan Leather ($98): wipe clean (not machine washable)
  • Velvet ($115): machine washable

Note: Parents still need to keep an arm around baby.

A LIFE AND ARM/BACK SAVER!
I was kinda hesitant to buy the Tushbaby hip carrier, because we already had two separate traditional carriers (one for my husband and one for myself/grandma to use). But my 20.5lbs 6 month old started becoming extra clingy and did not want to be put down alone. He is just too curious about everything we're doing and wants to be a part of the fun. But since he's gotten much heavier in the past couple months, I was considering this hip carrier. I polled my friends on social media and I got 7…

Love it
My baby nephew is at the strange he wants to be held all the time and sitting down makes him upset. I've been watching him a lot and my upper body and back would be so sore and tired afterwards. The Tushbaby is a life-saver! It takes all the pressure off my neck, arms, and back. He's too little to sit astride, but he loves sitting with his back against my chest. Absolutely worth it and 100% recommend.

Quick Solution and my baby loves being close to me
Before having a baby, I had seen some people use the Tush baby but didn't understand how it could be useful when you still had to hold them.
Boy, was I wrong! My baby sometimes just wanted to be held even if it was for a quick time. The Tush baby is sooo useful for running quick errands in a store and not having to set up a stroller! It's useful for if I want to do things around the house or take a quick walk outside and not lug the big stroller around with me.
It does drag down a big

Wish I bought sooner
I bought a sling carrier and an Ergobaby carrier. The Tush baby is by far the best carrier! I’ve used this since my baby was 4 months old and regret not getting it sooner. Easy to put on, dissipates weight well, and I love the pockets for storage. Highly recommend.

Back saver
Am a 65-year-old first time grandmother. I watch my grandson every day and absolutely love this carrier. We have been using it for about a month now and he is 6 months old. He sits facing out and I have a free hand to do everything. He really enjoys riding around and my back is not sore at all. The carrier also helps at feeding time. Thank you for this great design. When he has a slippery outfit on, I put a round silicone potholder under his bottom to keep him positioned correctly. This is a great investment.

Best carrier!
This is the carrier we used the most for our daughter! She is 2. 5 and we still use it. We love it and do not use the house without it!

Biggest Fans!
So beyond thrilled with this purchase! I have been using this DAILY for 6 months now; it’s held up very well and has even been laundered a few times and came out perfectly. I love to go full “mom mode” and clip my car keys to the D ring, phone in the outer pocket, wallet in the inner, and my coffee thermos in the bottle pocket! My back, arms, and sanity thank the tush baby team! We just returned from a big hiking trip and brought both our hiking backpack carrier and the tush seat - could’ve left…

Amazing
I can't believe I didn't get this for my other babies. I'm on my 3rd baby now and finally bit the bullet and I'm so impressed. It has saved my back including my mom's while holding her. I also used it going through the airport and it was a life saver. Plus all the pockets are amazing 😍 I can't say enough good things.
