The Moby Wrap Original Baby Carrier offers caregivers a safe, comfortable way to carry their babies. An ideal accessory for busy moms and dads, this baby carrier keeps your baby close and happy while on the go. It uses ultra-soft, 100 percent cotton fabric to securely hold babies, providing them with the support they need. The Moby Wrap also keeps you comfortable: it is free of straps and buckles, evenly distributing baby's weight across your body to prevent discomfort and fatigue.
Triple-Wrap Design for Safe, Secure Carrying
Designed to keep babies happy, the Moby Wrap emulates the feeling of being carried in your arms. It wraps snugly around babies and secures them with three different sections of fabric, holding them close to the wearer's chest. This gives infants the ergonomically-correct postural support that they need. When it's time for baby to sleep, one of the shoulder fabric panels can be used to support the back of baby's head for comfort.
Shoulder Support Prevents Discomfort and Fatigue
With no straps, buckles or other fasteners, the Moby Wrap is exceptionally comfortable to wear. Unlike carriers with straps that can dig into your shoulders, the Moby Wrap envelops your entire back and both shoulders keeping you comfortable. It also evenly distributes weight across your back and hips to make it easier to carry your baby for long periods without fatigue. In addition, the wrap can be adjusted to fit nearly any body type and size.
Promotes Healthy Caretaker-Baby Relationship
The Moby Wrap helps promote a strong, close relationship between adults and babies. Its design mimics the natural way of holding a baby and permits skin-to-skin contact with your infant. The Moby Wrap features tapered ends to eliminate unnecessary fabric bulk. It also provides an effective means of soothing fussy or cranky infants: babies feel safer when they feel the warmth of your body and hear your heartbeat. With a Moby Wrap, even the busiest parents can bond with their babies and give them the care, warmth, and intimacy that they deserve.
Stylish, Durable, and Easy to Clean
Moby Wraps are available in a variety of styles, including prints, solid colors, and designs. The fabric is 100 percent breathable cotton with ideal one-way stretch. The Moby is also machine washable and was made with extra length to ensure a good fit even after washing and shrinkage. It is designed to hold children from 8 to 35 pounds.

Customer Reviews
- The Moby wrap was able to be used the day we brought our preemie baby home from the hospital.
- The Moby wrap swaddles your baby snuggly to you. If your baby likes swaddling as much as our does, this is the baby carrier for you.
- It spreads the weight out evenly across your back and shoulders and feels much better for longer periods of time (in comparison to our Baby Bjorn).
- There are a variety of ways to wear your baby with this carrier. We have used it 4 different ways so far. Being able to pull the cloth completely over her so she can sleep soundly is a plus. The instructions are easy to follow and while it looks difficult to put on, it really is quite simple after you've practiced it 3 or 4 times.
- The Moby wrap is easy to clean with being machine washable and dryable and there are no parts that can be broken or lost.
What we don't like about the Moby wrap:
- If you plan on wearing your baby to go grocery shopping or other things out in public, you need to put it on before you leave the house. It can be difficult to put on in the car or in places where you do not feel comfortable with the wrap touching the floor (parking lot, public floor, etc.). This is not a big deal, but important to remember before you run out the door. During the cooler months, I put the Moby on, then my coat.
Bottom-line: The Moby wrap was an excellent purchase. Putting our daughter in it and walking around or bouncing on an exercise ball was one of the few ways to calm her during the height of her colic. Our daughter is now 5-months old and still enjoys the Moby. We expect to continue to use our Moby wrap for many more months.
Pros:
- Can accommodate a number of different types of front and back holds.
- It is very comfortable to wear; as the wide fabric over the shoulder distributes the infants weight nicely.
- It can really snuggle your infant in good. You can even pull the fabric over the baby's head a little to block light.
- My boy would sleep in this for a couple hours at a time when he was newborn to 8 weeks old.
- Washes up easily
Cons:
- Takes a bit of time to get used to putting on; at first it's hard to get everything on tight enough but not too tight.
- Takes too long to put on and take off.
- The long length of fabric always ends up dragging on the floor as you put it on. Maybe not normally a big deal but it really sucked while camping.
- Too Bulky to stick in a diaper bag.
- As my baby got bigger it was too restraining for him and took too much fooling around to get him in it.
I really never used this wrap again after my baby was 12 weeks old or so. I ended up getting a Hotslings Sweet Pea Size 3 instead. This sling takes two seconds to put on, is small enough for my purse. It's not as comfortable as the Moby sling but it is wonderful for portability and works great with babies that can hold their heads up. My little boy loves to ride in the hip sling position. One disadvantage for the hotsling is that they are sized (you and your husband might need different sizes.)
some people might complain about how long and complicated it is to put on but it REALLY isnt.it takes me about 15 seconds to put on, then another 15 to get her in all nice and snug. i had a normal baby carrier that with all the buckles and such and adjustments it took WAY longer. This wrap also allows SO many different positions. when i know my daughter wants to be awake and checking things out i face her out, and vice versa facing in. so far her favorite is the hug hold and lotus hold. but theres about 8 different holds which is great because not every baby is the same and might like something else.
before purchasing this wrap i was trying to decide between this and the maya(i bought the maya about a month ago) and boy do i love the moby more! ill wear the maya around the house but it doesnt hold my daughter as secure as the moby. i ALWAYS wear the moby when i shop or go out or when my daughter is tired because she cant get comfortable and fall asleep in the maya.
OVERALL GET THE MOBY! I recommend it to EVERYONE and many people have come up to me and asked me what they heck i was wearing!
