Scootababy – Natural, Comfortable & Hands Free Carrying

If you read TOP regularly (and why wouldn’t you?) you know we’re all dedicated child wearers. There’s no shortage of great carriers out there, and each one serves it purpose and different carriers work for different people.

scootababy baby carrier reviewFor the last few days I’ve been wearing my new Scootababy and have fallen in love. So has my 2 year old son. When it arrived, my baby was sleeping and he, who hasn’t been worn in almost a year because he’s refused since he learned to walk and became Mr. Independent, insisted in hopping right in. For being a 35 pound kid, he was surprisingly easy to carry! And it’s a good thing because he now considers it his so I haven’t had a chance to try it with my little one yet. When I want to wear her, she’s in the Ergo because he’s staked his claim on the new one.

The Scootababy, designed by babywearing mama Audra Meng, has a very comfortable padded waist strap that places most of the child’s weight on your hips and an easily adjustable shoulder strap with a fleece insert on the section that’s actually on your shoulder so there aren’t any of the usual pressure points that you often feel with a one sided carrier. It was notably easy to get on. Simply fasten the waist belt, pick up your child in their natural position at your hip and flip the body of the carrier up behind them. The shoulder strap then pops over their head and yours, and you can easily adjust it to support your child and be comfortable for both of you. Nothing to it!

It’s made of sturdy black denim, with your choice of a fleece or cotton liner, matches any outfit (like that matters when you’re that comfortable) and is machine washable.

I especially like the comfortable side carry position. It feels very natural and yet takes no effort to carry even a large child. I have other carriers, such as the Ergo, which allow for a side carry position but it takes so much work to adjust the straps that I never bother. It’s front, back, or not at all. Sometimes, though, the back isn’t ideal and you need the space in front of your belly for other things (and, honestly, once they hit a certain weight they don’t feel great centered in the front). With the Scootababy, it’s just like picking up your child as you always would, but they’re infinitely lighter and your hands are free. I love it!

Win it! Audra is giving one lucky TOP reader their very own Scootababy carrier, valued at $107! The winner will have their choice of the fleece or cotton jellybean lining. To enter, leave a comment on this post telling us why you want it. Contest closes April 14, 2008.

    It seems great! I want it because I have a new baby and I love that this keeps a lot of weight on your hips instead of a lot of pressure at the shoulders and back. Also, I love that it works well for bigger kids too, and allows for a side carry! Thank you for the great giveaway/contest. The carrier looks amazing!

    Wow, this carrier sounds fantastic! I love the idea of having my hands free to carry out the many daily tasks while having my little sweetie next to me. Also, I’d be able to better protect her and keep her close while walking, shopping (etc.) when we’re living in/visiting various countries in Africa.

    i would love to win this carrier, my son is 11 months old i have the baby bajorn but he is getting to big for it now and it hurts my back. this one looks like it would be a great one to carry my son who is 22lbs. Please pick me i could really use this:) Thanks

    I would really like this because my brother and his wife are expecting their first child. I want to give them something really nice and useful. I’m a recent college graduate and I don’t have much money to spend. Winning such a great prize would allow me to give them a great gift and keep my head above water financially.

    I also have the Ergo and agree that the side carry is inconvenient – it would be great to have an easy-to-use side-carrier.

    I would love to win this carrier! We have a new baby in the family; a little girl born prematurely 3/19, weighing in at 2 lbs. 8 0z. She is a fighter, though, and has already gained up to 3 lbs. 8 oz. – one whole pound! I think this would be a great carrier for her. Thanks so much for a great chance to win!

    My youngest loves to sit on my hip while I am working around the house. This would be such a blessing for both of us… I wouldn’t have to switch sides because my arm got tired! I like the cotton/jelly bean lining.

  21. # 21 Krista Says:
    April 7th, 2008 at 11:43 am

    I would love to try this out. My 24 pound 16 month old can be heavy to tote around, and she is not content to ride in a stroller for very long. Something like this would probably be a great compromise for both of us.

  22. # 22 Debbie Says:
    April 7th, 2008 at 11:44 am

    I would love to try this carrier because my baby won’t let me put him down! He’s starting to become more interested in looking around and this looks like a great carrier to help me cart him around and keep him happy while i’m doing it!

  23. # 23 Ann Says:
    April 7th, 2008 at 11:44 am

    I bought a sling for my baby girl who is 9 months but it’s not convenient and my shoulder and back hurt when I use it. I would really like to win this so I can carry my 9 month old around with comfort. Thanks for the great give away!

    Oh my goodness I want and NEED this! Carrying my daughter around is so hard. She was 20 pounds by six months and I’ve never had a hip carrier. This would be so perfect to carry her around without killing my back!

    I want this carrier because a) I love wearing my little guy. I wasn’t sure I would, but oh my goodness, it makes both of us happy and it makes everything easier (commuting to daycare on the subway, getting household tasks done, soothing him, getting him to sleep…..). b) It looks like a quality carrier that will work for us. We have a Maya, a Bjorn, and an Ergo; the Ergo is hands down my favorite (my partner likes the other two) and this looks like a great tweak to the Ergo style. Thanks for the opportunity!!

    I currently have a ring sling and Snugli that I lend out to new mothers to help adjust to life while carrying a baby and see what works well for them. I would love to expand my selection since every mother has different needs and preferences. And to be quite honest, I would get much use out of it too when my next one is born :)

  38. # 38 Katie Says:
    April 7th, 2008 at 1:05 pm

    Oh wow this carrier sounds great! I would love to have it because it sounds really comfortable and easy to use. I have an Ergo and a traditional Mei Tai and both of them take a lot of adjusting. I love them both for different reasons, and for different children, but don’t use them as much as I would like because they aren’t super easy to put on. The Scootababy sounds perfect!

    I have been wanting a carrier for my almost-toddler for a while now..I’ve been using a sling for hip carries and have thought about upgrading to a Beco or Ergo, but this has features that I appreciate even more. I am going to need to be hands-free often again and this looks like it could carry him as he gets bigger, and I love the versatility of back/front/hip carry.

    It looks like it would be very easy to adjust and to store…does it roll up easily?

  55. # 55 Marissa Says:
    April 7th, 2008 at 2:54 pm

    I’d love to win one of these just for the simple fact that I never have enough hands to get things done. We all know babies need to be held and kept close, but that gets difficult when you need to keep up with the housework! This would be a helpful solution to get both done at the same time!
    Thanks!

    I would love this carrier for myself. It would be a lifesaver for me. My 8 month old daughter is 25 pounds and refuses to be put down. I carry her around everywhere! This carrier would save my arms and back and would allow me to get more done around the house. Thanks!

    I LOVE he jellybean print.

    I need this because I have a 27 pound 10-month-old who is worn almost all the time. She rarely consents to use the stroller and, even less often, sit in a shopping cart. She’s too heavy for our Moby wrap (it stretches too far, and she slides down), and our Maya sling is a bit difficult these days. We just can’t get it to work well; she’s too wiggly. Our big backpack carrier works great but is too bulky to use at stores and the like. We really need a better option.

    I’m a recent convert to baby wearing and I love it (and my baby adores it)! But my back is starting to hurt from the sling but I don’t want to stop wearing her and this seems like the perfect solution! Thank you for such a great contest.

    After seven months, I have finally accepted the fact that my high-needs baby is going to be bodily attached to me for some time to come…he hasn’t outgrown his need to be carried around all day as everyone said he would by now, and I don’t think he’s going to any time soon. The problem is he’s a big guy who’s about to outgrow his Baby Bjorn, which puts serious stress on my back these days anyway. I’m looking for a new carrier that’s comfortable for both of us and easy to get on/off and the Scootababy looks like the perfect solution! If I were lucky enough to win, I’d choose the cotton lining since we live in a hot climate. Thanks for the chance at the great giveaway!

    I’d love this for my 2 week old son, as he constantly wants to be held and carried and my arms are getting tired! He also doesn’t like the baby sling, so this kind of carrier may soothe him more. Thanks!

    I would LOVE to have this because I am also a dedicated babywearer, but as my little guy is getting heavier, its getting increasingly harder to carry him with the pouch sling, and Moby Wrap that I have. Buying a new one is just not in the budget right now, but I am going to really miss carrying my baby and the closeness it brings which is why I am still KILLING my back trying to make it work with the sling and wrap! LOL! :-)

    I used a Moby all the time with my daughter when she was younger and loved it. As she got nigger it has not worked well, so I tried a Mei Tei – but it is not very convenient and I have only used it a few times with her on my back. I would love to carry her again, especially when we travel, or when I am trying to get things done around the house. She is 21 months and 25 lbs and this like a great solution.
    Thanks

    I would love to have this sling because my nieces love to be carried. We will go on walks and the oldest says she will walk the whole way. 1 block into our walk she is too tired to keep walking. I am always carrying her.

    We recently adopted our daughter from China and prefer to use a carrier over a stroller to help with bonding. She is growing bigger daily and I have been in the market for a hip carrier. I like the jellybean lining.

    I love this carrier. I have a Patapum that I adore but it is not able to be used in the side carry position. With 1 yr old twins, it is so helpful to carry one while out and about. That way I only have to worry about one getting away from me. This looks like a great carrier to use as my babies get bigger.

    I don’t just want this carrier – I need it! My 2-year-old is very shy in public and will not let me put her down. And she’s getting just way too heavy for me to carry easily – especially with 2 other kids to keep track of. The best part is that this carrier goes up to 40 pounds, which is more than the others that I’ve seen. :)

    I’m entering this contest on behalf of my friend Megan. She recently moved to Saskatchewan with her husband for a job opportunity that dried up when they got there. At nine months pregnant, coming home isn’t an option and they used most of their savings to get there anyway. They are currently living with her husband’s parents while he searches for work and money is very tight. Every good mom wants to give her child the very best of everything and Megan is no exception. It has saddened her greatly to not be able to. It would be nice if she could give her baby (and herself) this.

We are constantly going to and from and around many sporting events and it would be so handy (or hands free!) to be able to safely hold my 1 1/2 year old son so that both of us are comfortable and he isnt running around hockey rinks and soccor fields! My current carrier is uncomfortable to hold him in now so this would be ideal!

    Mine is a story of goldilocks and the three bears. I’ve tried the Bjorn…not comfortable for me, even when my son was a newborn. The Moby Wrap…too complicated and I never felt like my son was entirely secure in it. Now that my little big guy is pushing 28 pounds, I’d like to carry him more, but I am wary about plopping more money down for another carrier that gets left in the closet because it isn’t the right fit, isn’t easy to use or my son isn’t comfortable in it. My son is definitely a hip-only kind of guy–doesn’t want to be behind me, nor in front of me, he wants to be on my hip so he can look me square in the eye and we can share a moment together. And frankly when I carry him in my arms on my hip, it’s just more comfortable for me. I want to give child wearing another try with the right carrier. And this could very well be the carrier that’s just right for us. That’s why I want it.

    We would love one of these, as we do not have one of our own. We are borrowing one from a friends but need to give it back. We have 2 daughters, one almost 2, and one 2 1/2 months. We could really use one of our one to carry our kids, and have them close.

    What a great giveaway! I love to carry my son in a sling (I’ve used the Moby and the Ergo carrier, mostly), and am hoping to have a second child soon and would love a new sling! Especially one that I could use in conjunction with one I already have!

    I would love to have this carrier! I made a sling carrier for myself but have never felt comfortable with it. I feel like I’m squishing my baby. I’ve borrowed the moby wrap from my sister in law and it takes forever to set up. This looks easy and comfortable for both of us! I’d be able to get out of the house again!

    I want this because I could really use a new carrier for my son! He just turned 2 but is so big- 35 pounds. I love my Ergo, but like you said I’d really like to easily be able to wear him on my hip, and the sling style is just too much weight on one shoulder. Scootababy seems like the perfect solution!

    I would love this because it can be adjusted to fit different size users. Forever ago when my daughter was born- actually that was only 2 1/2 years ago- I told my fiance that I’d sew him a mai tei wrap. We went and picked out the fabric for it and everything… last week I just sewed a peanut shell type pouch for my 1 month old son and he asks, “Whatever happened to the carrier you were going to sew me when Sammy was born?” Ooops… I think this carrier would be perfect because I could use it to carry my daughter around, and he could also use it to carry our son.

    My son is a big-little guy! I LOVE that this sits on your hip–it is so tough when they are in the front, because you can’t get to what is in front of you, and my Moby Wrap is great, but impossible to get on my back with him in it, alone. The scootababy looks AMAZING! I like the jellybean print-it is fun and versatile (aka: not too girly).

    I would like this, because I gave up the sling when my daughter got heavier, but I always loved baby wearing and actually miss it. When you wrote you carried a 35 pounder, it makes me think I could still be doing this. It would have helped at the zoo yesterday, because I sure did a lot of carrying and neither of my kids are big on the stroller.

    We used a borrowed Baby Bjorn for our first child. We liked it, but couldn’t use it after she got past about 12 pounds. For our next one I’d really like a carrier that we can use longer.

    April 11th, 2008 at 7:59 am

    I tried a friend’s Scootababy and fell in love with it! It is perfect for carrying my toddler around. I have slings and wraps, and despite the “facts” that you can carry a child up to 30lbs in them, it is not comfortable for me. My son stands in the sling in .02 seconds, and in the wrap he can’t face forward and I can’t get him on my back on my own.
    The Scootababy puts him on my hip super easy, no complicated wrapping, and we are both comfortable.
    Plus, I don’t have room for a stroller in my vehicle, so I need something portable for all our summer activites.

    I am expecting baby #2 and this would be very neat to try with another child running around. I also have lower back issues that I think this may help with. Thanks!

    Having 2- children under the age of 2 leaves me without any extra hands. This would be great to have. Would leave me 2 hands for me to chase just 1 little one.

    I would love to add it to our local babywearing group’s lending “library” of carriers! Wondering how it compares to an Ergo…

    I would love one of these, because being a breastfeeding mother, it’s so important to have my little one close for on demand feedings. I totally subscribe to the belief you can not spoil a baby by holding them, and these look so comfy!!!

    I would love to have this because my little girl always wants to be held by only me. This would help me out in carrying around all her weight!!
