User guide

To ensure your comfort and that of your baby, we recommend that you carefully read the instruction manual before using your baby carrier.

A printed version of the guide is included with your order. If you have misplaced it or wish to access a digital version, you can download it at any time from the links below.

Taking the time to fully understand the adjustments and recommended positions will guarantee a safe, enjoyable, and optimal experience from your first use.

The Mālama baby carrier fits babies from 7 to 35 lb and offers 4 carrying positions. From birth, your baby is carried facing you, against your chest. Facing out becomes possible once your baby has good head and neck control, usually around 5 to 6 months. Back carrying is possible once your baby is big enough, generally from 6 months.

Whatever the position, the same guidelines apply:

• Your baby's airways stay clear.
• Their hips keep their natural position.
• The carrier is properly adjusted to your body.

Take regular breaks and follow your baby's cues.

For care, the carrier is machine washable on a delicate cycle. Check the care label before the first wash. Linen softens with use, so it's normal for it to lose a little stiffness over time.
