I’m working with Mountain Buggy® to test out their new juno baby carrier!

I’ve been wearing my baby (now 8 weeks old, about 9#) in it for the last two weeks. We wear it indoors around the house, and for walks around the neighborhood, so far.

The packaging is very attractive; compact and easy to carry! Here are some great features about it right off the bat:

• The carrier comes with a baby insert, so you don’t need to buy one separately.
• The infant insert, as well as the lining of the carrier are very soft 100% cotton, making it very comfortable to the touch.
• There is a place to put your hands, so you are not awkwardly dangling your hands to your side. You can literally insert your hands inside the outside fabric and hold your baby.
• There are 2 storage pockets at the base of the carrier, large enough to carry keys and your phone.
• The back strap attaches via a magnet, which I found to be surprisingly very strong when attached, and even easier to remove when you’re ready to take it off.

I’m a big fan of baby wearing, and so far this carrier has proven to be comfortable and easy to wear. The straps are padded and the material is so soft compared to other carriers that I have used. I can’t wait to try this out with my 2 year old, who probably weighs around 25 pounds.

Here are its four medically approved carrying modes*:

• Front face in (from newborn to 24 months old)
• Front face out (from 6-18 months old)
• Hip carrying mode (from 6-24 months old)
• Back carrying mode (from 6- 48 months old)

*Follow weight guidelines as instructed by the carrier fit tips HERE

I look forward to testing this out more in the next couple of months outdoors, especially since the weather is finally into the 50’s! The next post on this product will be a review with my toddler in tow.

Happy Baby Wearing!
