Carriers as unique as your baby
Baby carriers are the ultimate baby accessory. From park to party, we’ve got your back. Our carriers are sturdy, well-crafted, and comfortable. Mei tais and ring slings position baby properly, reducing stress on baby’s hips and lower back — and they’re better for the caregiver’s back, too. Katara Baby carriers can be used comfortably until the child is about 35-40 pounds.
Our mei tais feature gorgeous prints on the outside, luxurious silk next to baby, and an internal layer of canvas for strength. We use “x box” stitching to secure the shoulder straps to the body of the carrier. Our straps are made of sturdy fabric (twill or corduroy) and lightly padded at the shoulder area. And last but not least, each carrier is absolutely unique — no two are the same.
Our rings slings are made with sturdy linens, silks, or two layers of cotton, and feature Sling Rings weight-tested aluminum rings. Rings are attached with three rows of stitching. Shoulders are pleated for comfort and ease of use. Again, no two are the same!
