Benefits of technology

[0008]Once the baby is placed into the carrier, the baby is positioned in an upright sitting position facing the adult's chest. This relationship provides comfort and security for the baby. The baby's weight is distributed across the caregiver's shoulders and back. The waist straps prevent the lower part of the carrier from shifting sideways, and secure the bottom edge against the waist so that the baby does not slide downward. The baby securing straps support the baby's back and prevent the baby's upper torso from bending away from the caregiver's chest. The baby is comforted by the warmth and heartbeat of the caregiver's body while resting in a soft, comfortable carrier.
[0009]At the same time, the caregiver can put the carrier on and secure the baby in the carrier quickly and easily, and the baby's weight is comfortably distributed by the carrier.

Problems solved by technology

Nevertheless, as the variety of designs attests, there are concerns regarding both the comfort of the infant and the safety of the harness.

Description of the Related Art[0004]A variety of infant carriers are available that relieve the caregiver from the burden of carrying the baby in their arms, including strollers, carriages, portable car seats, etc. Many parents prefer a carrier that holds the baby close to the parent's body for the added benefit of psychological bonding between the parent and baby. Traditionally, Native Americans have been pictured carrying their young in a papoose, with straps slung over the shoulders and the baby supported on the back and facing rearward.[0005]In recent years, such carriers have been modified so that the baby is supported in front, facing the chest of the person wearing the harness.
