Babywearing, while fairly new to the modern Western world, is as old as the family unit itself. Families were carrying and holding their children in soft carriers out of necessity, long before the advent of strollers, infant swings, the “infant entertainment saucer,” bouncy seats, and the like made carriers a thing of the past. Moms, dads, older siblings, cousins, grandparents, and virtually everyone else deemed to be part of the family took their turn in sharing the responsibility of caring for and carrying the babies and smaller children of the family.

Baby Tips & Facts
We get our word “bag” from the Swedish word “bog” (has umlat over the “o”), which was the traditional baby carrier used by the Swedes as recently as the early 20th century. It consisted of a leather bag-- which was oftentimes intricately tooled-- in which the baby was placed, and two long straps. It was traditionally used as a back carrier.
