Dear Ergobaby, Looking back on this photo 8 years later it’s hard to imagine how tough things were. First came Chandler, and through better or worse, his tears and mine, you carried us through. Just twenty months later along came Matilda, and while chasing a toddler and learning how to breastfeed, you carried us through. Less than two years later, along came August, and through school pick ups and drop offs, through job changes and all of our worries, you carried us through. Now with four children, as challenging as the day to day can be, our family and our love has grown. We have had adventures a stroller wouldn’t have allowed, thanks to the confidence and freedom your carrier has given us. Thank you #ergobaby ❤ -Laura Want to share your Ergobaby story?

Emotional Benefits of Getting Outside
Spending time in nature with your baby can strengthen the bond between you. The simple act of holding your baby close, feeling their warmth, and sharing new experiences together can create strong emotional connections. It’s also a wonderful way to reduce stress and improve your mood. When my littles were extra fussy, I’d take a walk around the neighborhood. Even though I don't live in an area with

What is the most challenging part of owning a retail store? And the most rewarding?
With its sleek lines and pared down profile, it’s really incredible how one carrier can do so much in one small package. When tasked with the idea of creating a baby carrier that not only fit without an insert, but offered all positions, our designers took to heart how important baby’s position, as well as the ergonomics, was. Not only that but to create something easy to use that fit a variety of body types and baby ages. We are thrilled to offer the Ergobaby Omni 360, for when you need all the options!
This carrier differs greatly in its fit and feel than the All Position 360, with a buckle waistband with lumbar support and double adjust, ensuring even, comfortable support. It narrows via tabs on the waistband, allowing you to adjust the width of the seat to support the size of your baby, from birth on. In order to support a newborn without an insert, the headrest folds inside, outside when baby no longer needs it, and up for a taller body as baby grows. The buckles are located
According to his sister Kay, as a child Keith Haring was always drawing. Although he’s associated with New York City, Keith was born in Pennsylvania. He graduated from high school and discovered quickly that he had little interest in becoming a commercial graphic artist, and moved to New York City in 1978 to attend the School of Visual Arts and be immersed in the city’s vibrant alternative arts community. Part of which was developing on the streets, and by 1980 he was drawing his signature line drawings in New York’s subways. Creating as many as several hundred by 1985. Concepts such as birth, death, love and war, immediately recognizable visual language spoke to not just a street audience, but galleries and museums as well. He even collaborated with children, other artists and in the presence of people so he could engage in real time.
Word quickly spread of his whimsical, colorful, relatable art that was easy to understand. Accessibility was important to him, and while his art was beginning
From the very beginning, Ergobaby was created around the idea of community. When Karin Frost first designed the Original carrier, she believed that raising children in a village of support was important, and a baby carrier was a helpful tool that made participation possible. Postpartum, many families are overwhelmed with the amount of support they receive early on, but suddenly when a partner returns to work, or family leaves town, they find themselves feeling very isolated. We know that Postpartum Depression is becoming increasingly common, with 1 in 7 mothers receiving a diagnosis, with many more not receiving the diagnosis and support they need. Fathers are experiencing it also, some studies saying as high as 1 in 4. With all this in mind, Ergobaby is thrilled to announce the creation of an online support group, not just for baby carrying, but for all things parenting, Ergobaby: Love Carries On. It is an inclusive space open to all on this journey of caregiving, where questions

At Baby’s & Kid's 1st, not only are we a family owned business but we like to think of our staff as well as our customers as our extended family. Seeing our customers on a regular basis and getting to know them and their families helps us when we are deciding what products to add to our stores.

We are honored to announce a new carrier designed in honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and in support of Susan G. Komen®. In 2016-2017, Ergobaby will make a guaranteed minimum donation of $25,000 to Komen in connection with the Ribbons Carrier regardless of sales ($5 per Ribbons Carrier).
We are proud to support Komen in its efforts to save lives and inspire hope for all who have been affected by breast cancer. Through our Carry For A Cure initiative, we will help spread the message of education and prevention to the parenting community by sharing the inspirational stories of real parents who are breast cancer survivors.
“At Ergobaby, we seek to find new ways to support families through every phase of life. Breast cancer has impacted many of the families we serve, as well as those of us at Ergobaby. Everyone has a friend, family member or co-worker affected by this disease. Recently, one of our own team members, Cynthia Neiman, battled breast cancer. We were truly inspired
