Is there a baby carrier for a 1yr old? My cousin's having troubles in carrying her child (who weights 10kg now) anywhere all by herself and thought that a carrier would be handy than a bulky stroller. Any suggestions?

If the child can walk steadily unaided and has completed his spinal development, a hipseat can be safely used. If a hipseat carrier is used before that, it may adversely affect the baby's spinal development. As a hipseat is not an ergonomic carrier, the mother may feel some discomfort carrying the child after some time. Tula is a popular brand, but there are many brands and carriers which are suitable. There's LennyLamb, which I personally love because all its soft structured carriers are woven wrap conversions. Kokadi Flip, emeibaby and Manduca are brands you can consider as well. Apart from Baby Slings & Carriers, you can also try out baby carriers at Bumwear, located at Marina Square.
