All about the Quokkababy Mei Carrier
The Quokkababy Mei Carrier is the perfect hybrid baby carrier that combines the ease of a buckled baby carrier with the adaptability of a Meh Dai.
Made with soft, organic cotton woven fabric, Quokkababy Mei Carrier features a simple adjustment system, making it ideal for beginners and experienced babywearers alike. This evolutionary baby carrier grows with the baby from birth to 18 months and is easily adjustable for wearers of different body types, offering ultimate comfort for everyone involved.
Quokkababy Mei Carrier is designed for ergonomic babywearing from 0 to 18 months, from 3.2 kg and is approved for a maximum weight of 15 kg.
Featuring a buckled waistband and padded shoulder straps for you and a fully adjustable back panel to support your baby at all stages in their early development, the Quokkababy Mei Carrier is super simple and great for use between different carers. The shoulder straps also feature perfect fit adjusters to allow for easy, comfortable breastfeeding whilst babywearing.
The Quokkababy Mei Carrier is designed specifically for front (tummy to tummy) babywearing, and may be used for hip carrying older babies from approximately 6 months, or independently sitting. This carrier is not designed for forward facing or back carrying.

Advantages of Quokkababy Mei Carrier
Maximum Ergonomics from Day One
Adaptability: The adaptable back panel reduces on all 4 sides to fit the baby's exact size as they grow.
Padded Neck Support: It has extra padding in the baby's neck area, allowing for proper support of the delicate head and neck of the newborn, and can be adjusted to offer additional support for the sleeping infant or young toddler.
Ergonomic Position: The Quokkababy Mei Carrier design promotes the ergonomic position in the baby's hips, contributing to preventing dysplasia and ensuring healthy development. It has the "Hip Dysplasia" quality seal awarded by the International Hip Dysplasia Institute.
Easy "1-Click" Adjustment
Simple and Quick Adjustment: The Quokkababy Mei Carrier is one of the simplest and fastest baby carriers to fit, with a supportive buckled waistband and easily adjustable tied shoulder straps.
Short and Padded Straps: The padded straps ensure a balanced weight distribution. They are shorter than traditional Meh Dai straps, making them manageable and not dragging, which facilitates their use and mobility.
Breastfeeding whilst babywearing
Facilitates Breastfeeding: The design, featuring perfect fit adjusters on the shoulder straps, allows for strap adjustment to provide space for breastfeeding, promoting more intimate and comfortable contact. This also allows the baby the space they need not to feel overwhelmed, especially as they get older and more alert.
