Winner:GOLD Best Baby Carrier / Sling Design
Who:ISARA
What:ISARA Quick Half buckle
Why:
This carrier was a big hit with our judges who loved the cool, contemporary colours
and fabrics on offer and the fact that it really does live up to the ‘Quick’ part of its name. Super easy to put on and adjust, the panel agreed that this was a great offering for parents who want zero fuss and the confidence that they are carrying their baby comfortably.
A very attractive and practical carrier. The quick adjustment system is a great innovation to make carrying baby even easier.
I love this – it’s a really nice halfway house between a sling and a carrier with long easily adjusted straps for a good fit. There are some lovely prints available too. I’m really grateful for the extra length in the straps, I can see this working for parents with a lot of different body types.
Gorgeous design - stylish and it looks comfortable to use daily.
A super comfy and neat looking carrier that can be worn front or back facing for extra versatility.
Winner:SILVER Best Baby Carrier / Sling Design
Who:Love Radius
What:HoodieCarrier 2
Why:
The HoodieCarrier 2 impressed our judges with its impressive lifespan, enabling
parents to carry their children safely and securely from birth to 3 years. With good posture for baby and maximum comfort for parents at the heart of is design, the panel agreed that this sling was a great option for families who want the closeness and convenience of supported carrying for as long as possible. The built in hood for extra cosiness and protection was another design feature our judges loved.
From a design perspective I can see why this could win - I haven’t seen a hooded baby carrier like this before. Nice details such as the adjustable seat, make this suitable from birth for most babies.
An attractive and versatile carrier - super cute with the hood. The innovative 3D fit makes getting it in the right form for the baby’s age and size easy-peasy.
Lovely carrier - it looks so stylish and I like that you can carry your baby in different positions using it.
When you have a very cuddly toddler who doesn’t want to be put down, a sling like this is invaluable.
