This sample model is in good condition.

This Mei Tai requires both the belly strap and shoulder straps to be knotted. If you do not want to have to tie the belly band, choose a "half buckle".

The Mei Tai combines the best of everything in one baby carrier: the ease of use and speed of a baby carrier, with the comfort and security of a sling (both the shoulder straps and the waistband of the sling are tied). The Mei Tai can be adjusted in height by rolling the waist strap. This ensures that the top of the baby carrier ends up exactly at the back of your baby's neck, allowing you to carry them ergonomically. With larger children, it is no problem at all if their shoulders and/or arms stick out above the baby carrier, as this gives them a little more freedom of movement. The width of the carrier can be adjusted by narrowing it between the legs with the flap at the back of the knees. You do this by securing the narrowest position with the button, so that the carrier supports your baby from knee to knee and the lower legs hang down relaxed. The shoulder straps can be spread wide for more comfort, but can also be transformed into soft carrier straps using the included shoulder pads. The sleeping hood offers protection from the weather or other stimuli, but can also be rolled up to form a neck roll. You can also carry your child on your back from the moment they can sit independently, which is usually between 6 and 8 months. Based on the width and height of the Mei Tai Deluxe, this baby carrier can be used up to pants size 98.

 

  • Place the belly band at waist level (not too low) so you can give your baby a kiss on the head.
  • Roll (if necessary) the belly band away from you 1 or 2x and then snap or button the belly band. This way you make sure your baby's head is well above the carrier.
  • Narrow (if necessary) the back panel at the level of the buttocks by folding over the flaps. Make sure the fabric does not go beyond both knee hollows, the lower legs will then dangle down relaxed.
  • Make sure the back has a natural curve (hips tilted toward you, as if your baby were sitting on his buttocks).
  • Roll up the sleep hood for extra neck support, possibly including a pacifier in it to make the roll a little thicker. The roll folds inward and comes between the top of the mei tai and the neck.
  • Spread the shoulder straps wide over your shoulders for even better weight distribution, or slide the shoulder pads over the shoulder straps, for soft, compact carrying straps.
  • With a newborn, tie the shoulder straps a little differently: Pass them under your armpits first, then cross them over your back, then fold them forward over your shoulders. This way your baby's face is completely free and there is better neck support for these little ones.
  • Don't cover the head completely with the sleep hood when wearing it up, always make sure there is plenty of fresh air by leaving one side open.
