I’m extremely disappointed with WildBird. I ordered a baby carrier and they sent me the wrong color. Mistakes happen, but what’s unacceptable is that they’ve completely ignored every attempt I’ve made to fix it.
I’ve sent multiple emails, DM’d them on Instagram, and even commented on their posts—and I still haven’t received a single response. It’s so frustrating to spend money on something you were excited about, only to be ignored when the company is the one who messed up.

Great support!
Really enjoy this carrier! I tried a few carriers and this is so easy to put on and take off and I don't worry about not supporting my 8 week old while strapping him in.
The fabrics and materials used seem really good quality. The straps are padded and comfortable, the linen is soft, breathable and my little one doesn't overheat.
He feels secure once strapped in and I love how the waist belt takes strain off of my shoulders and back.
The only negatives- there is no way this would fit…

A must have!
I have owned several other carriers before finding this one for reference. The Wildbird Aerial Buckle Carrier is the most comfortable and durable carrier I have owned. I use it multiple times a day and it has grown with my baby perfectly. This is the easiest carrier to put on, I can wear my baby for long periods with zero back pain, and it is easy to clean! My baby loves his carrier, he naps, we take walks, do chores, play with baby sister, trick or treat and much more! I recommend this to everyone and it is a must have if you are expecting!

Loved it, but it broke after 4 weeks and could've injured my baby
Loved using this with my baby. Unfortunately the side buckle became detatched from the carrier after 4 weeks of gentle, limited use and was only held on by a literal thread. So scary! I'm glad I wasn't wearing my newborn and checked the carrier before baby wearing.

Very comfortable
I enjoy wearing this carrier! My baby enjoys being in the carrier and I have worn it for hours hiking and at the zoo and it has been more comfortable than others I have worn. My only critique is that I wish the front panel was longer. I haven’t seen other reviews talking about this so I am not sure if my baby has a long torso but he is 10 months and he constantly gets his arms out and over the top of the carrier.

Love this little carrier!! I was hesitant to to spend the money but I'm glad I did- my little one loves it (when I actually use it) <3 I love the adjustment features, the ease of use, and the extra head support! Would recommend to new or seasoned mamas

Original Aerial = Amazing; Special Edition/Babylist Venus Print = Majorly disappointing
I have a Wildbird Aerial carrier that I LOVE and have used for many months with my twins, but my husband loves it too and often snatches it up first. I was super excited to treat myself to this limited edition/special collab print so we could each have a Wildbird. Immediately upon unboxing, I could tell this one was different; when comparing it to the standard Aerial carriers, this Venus version is significantly lower quality. The padding is much thinner (almost 50% less by our estimates), the…
