Sprout Soup / Structured Baby Carriers

Quick on and off with easy to use buckles, on-the-fly adjusting, and unmatched comfort make soft structured baby carriers the fastest growing segment of the market. Modeled after hiking backpacks, these carriers focus on weight distribution, making carrying heavier toddlers and preschoolers possible.

While most people choose this style of baby carrier to carry baby on their back, all structured carriers can be used on the wearer's front or back, and some include a side hip option. Straps are padded and clip easily into place.

Structured backpack carriers are one-size fits most, some brands have optional extenders to fit a wider range of wearers. Most carriers can be used from birth, but many find the structured carrier to be most useful when baby reaches 4 or 5 months of age.
