Our Mei tai baby carrier is protected by patent®.

SINCE BIRTH, OUR JOURNEY OF LOVE

Our flagship product, covered by patent. Compared to a normal baby carrier, it allows you to wrap the baby naturally following the line of his body. From 3.5 kg up to 18 kg.

For continuous "ups and downs"

The smallest baby carrier around, practical and quick to put on, it's perfect for accompanying the thousand requests "...in your arms!" . Indicated from when the child supports his head independently, from about 4-5 months up to 15 kg.

SLING - The ring band

From birth up to 18 kg. Usable from 3.5 kg up to 18 kg, our sling is an elegant "open tail" ring sling. This feature makes it perfect for discreet breastfeeding and wind protection.

THE EMOTIONAL BENEFITS of BABYWEARING

Strengthen the bond

Contact brings greater well-being: it develops endorphins, your baby feels protected by your proximity, your smell and the sound of your voice.

Carrying accompanies the development of premature babies (kangaroo therapy).

Less crying

The cry of a very young child is often a signal, a call to satisfy an important need: the newborn seeks and manifests as best he can the desire to be in a safe and known place: close to you. In a MHUG baby carrier you relax, and by relaxing you will more easily abandon yourself to a satisfying sleep. He won't demand further (and often tiring) attention, he just wants to be there .

Promotes healthy autonomy

To make a child independent, one must first make him confident. If you do the reverse process, you will get the opposite effect. A newborn feels safe having you close, better still in contact. Taking away this certainty can undermine his sense of security, and security is the basic requirement of autonomy.

ERGONOMICS and RESPECT for PHYSIOLOGY

M position

In this position, the child correctly unloads the weight without putting pressure on the genitals and hips, which are very delicate in the first months of life. At birth the child does not take it naturally, he will do it gradually. which is why you don't need to force the legs apart.

Respect the baby's physiology

It is the position that allows your child to follow its natural development. A child is constantly growing, the spine (strong but at the same time very delicate organ) and the hips must be protected: the effects of wrong habits can manifest themselves seriously even after a long time.

Correct weight distribution

The heavier the child becomes, the more important it is for the support to distribute its weight over a large area of ​​the carrier's torso. MHUG baby carriers protect your back thanks to the wide shoulder straps.
