The ERGO Baby Carrier in combination with our Infant Insert enables you to buy only one carrier that will assist you through all the stages of your baby’s growth.  The insert is specially padded and shaped cushion that can be quickly and easily placed in the carrier and readjusted or folded to pad just the right places for your infant. Your infant is then cradled in a cozy, protected environment close to your heart and breast.  Your baby is supported with both feet to one side in a sling-like position.  This is best for the baby’s physical development from newborn to around four months.  Parents can remain attentive to their baby’s needs and at the same time continue daily activities because parent and baby are like one.  The Hood can be extended for privacy when nursing or as a sun shield.
