Oscha Cairis Front Carry
Make sure you and your baby are feeling calm, content and happy
before trying your carrier the first few times. Take your time to practice
and allow your baby time to get used to being in the carrier. You
could also practice using a teddy or doll, and checking in the mirror
3. Ensure the carrier is tightened enough so that baby's back is supported so they do
not slump or curl into a ball. Untie and re-tighten if you feel your baby is leaning too far
away from your body or has slumped down
in the carrier.
4. Make sure baby's face is not pressed in to
your chest; you can gently turn their head to
the side so their cheek rests against your chest
should they fall asleep.
5. If you wish to breastfeed your child in the
Cairis you can lower them down slightly in the
carrier. Remember to ensure a good air supply
at all times with no fabric over the head and
that their chin is not resting on their chest (check
you can fit two fingers between chin and chest
if you are unsure). Also check that baby's head
is supported and is aligned with their spine

Ensure that a baby who has finished feeding
or has fallen asleep is returned to the most

supported and open.

The first few times your baby is in the sling, it is a
good idea to take a walk to allow them to settle and
get used to it.
When trying out back carries initially it is recommended
to practice over a bed or another soft surface and
also to have someone with you to help.
Here are some key points to remember:
1. Your baby should be in a spread-squat or 'M'
position, with her knees at the same height or higher
than her bottom/hips, to provide optimal positioning
for knee and hip joints.
2. You should be able to kiss the top of your baby's
head when she is on your front; if she is too low it
may strain your back.
