Written by Katy Arnold on April 09, 2025.

The right baby carrier should do more than just carry your kid—it should support your body, adapt to your needs, and actually look good while doing it. The Tushbaby Hip Carrier checks all the boxes, offering a smarter way to carry your child and their essentials from birth to toddlerhood.

With multiple carry positions, built-in storage, and feeding support, Tushbaby is a go-to for caregivers looking for comfort and convenience, without sacrificing style. We’re breaking down how it works, what sets it apart, and why families worldwide say yes to the question: is Tushbaby worth it?

Features of the Tushbaby Hip Carrier

The Tushbaby Hip Carrier was designed with the realities of parenting in mind: babies who want up, down, and back up again… and adults who need the support to keep up. Every feature is built to make carrying more comfortable, more stylish, and more organized.

  • Built-in lumbar support: Encourages proper posture and evenly distributes baby’s weight to ease back, arm, and shoulder strain.

  • Memory foam-lined seat: Keeps baby close and comfortable in four hip-healthy carry positions.

  • Anti-slip fabric patch: Adds extra security to keep your baby in place.

  • Five storage pockets: Room for diapers, wipes, bottles, and your own essentials—no diaper bag needed.

  • Hideable bottle holder: Holds a baby bottle or your water bottle, and conveniently tucks away when not in use.

  • Double-locking waistband buckle: Extra security—because peace of mind matters.

  • Compact fold-up design: Folds up easily for travel, storage, or tossing in the car.

There’s a reason parents reach for the Tushbaby Carrier again and again. Every detail is designed with purpose—to lighten your load without compromising on comfort, style, or function.

Advantages of the Tushbaby Hip Carrier

The Tushbaby Hip Carrier isn’t just another baby carrier—it’s a smarter way to carry, soothe, and support your child’s needs through every stage. We’re breaking down all the advantages, from back-saving support to hands-free storage, so you can see why it earns a permanent spot in the rotation.

Ergonomic Benefits for Baby and Parent

The Tushbaby Hip Carrier is built to support both babies and parents, from birth to toddlerhood! With a wide waistband and built-in lumbar support, it eliminates the slouching and hip-hitching that often comes with carrying a baby. Plus, it evenly distributes weight across your body, so parents can carry their little ones longer and more comfortably. For babies, the memory foam-lined seat supports healthy hip development in four carry positions—keeping them close and comfy without cramping your style.

Ease of Use and Portability

With a Velcro waistband and locking buckle, the Tushbaby Hip Carrier is easy to use and even easier to carry. It’s lightweight and foldable, making it easy to stash on the go when your little one’s on the move. Whether you’re running errands or hopping on a flight, Tushbaby keeps things simple, compact, and convenient.

Storage and Multi-Functionality

The Tushbaby Hip Carrier doesn’t just carry your baby—it carries the day. With five built-in pockets and a hideable bottle holder, there’s room for diapers, wipes, snacks, a spare onesie, and all your essentials. It also doubles as feeding support, giving your arms a break while keeping your baby at a supportive slant to latch or bottle-feed.

Tushbaby Snug Attachment

Designed to pair exclusively with your Tushbaby Hip Carrier, the Tushbaby Snug Attachment adds hands-free support for babies 12–45lbs without the bulk of a traditional wrap. The soft, breathable material attaches in seconds to secure little ones facing in or out—perfect for naps, errands, or getting things done with both hands free. And when you’re not using it, the Snug folds neatly into Tushbaby’s under-seat storage pocket.

Tushbaby Hip Carrier Weight Limit

Built to support babies from birth up to 45 lbs, the Tushbaby Hip Carrier is made to grow with your child—from newborn feeds to toddler “carry me” demands. It’s the one-and-done carrier that supports nursing, holding, and giving tired little legs a break—all with comfort, style, and ease.

Tushbaby Hip Carrier Age Limit

The Tushbaby Hip Carrier isn’t just for one phase—it’s built for the long haul. The Tushbaby age range is 0 to 3 years (or up to 45 lbs), making it a daily essential that adapts as your routine shifts. From cluster feeds to quick pick-ups at preschool drop-off, it earns its spot in your everyday rotation.

Round out your setup with these essentials that work seamlessly with your Tushbaby Carrier:

  • Tushbaby Changing Pad: A sleek, vegan leather changing pad that folds up slim and wipes down clean for mess-free diaper changes on the go.

  • The Pod: A stylish pouch to keep pacifiers clean, close, and clipped to your Tushbaby Carrier or bag.

  • New Parent Starter Kit: A curated bundle of essentials, including The Tushbaby Hip Carrier, The Snug Attachment, The Pod, The Changing Pad, and The Crossbody Strap, designed to help new parents stay organized and ready for whatever the day brings.

FAQs

Is Tushbaby Okay for Baby Hips?

The Tushbaby Hip Carrier is built to support healthy hip development from day one. The wide, cushioned seat positions your baby’s hips in a natural “M” shape, rather than letting their legs dangle. With four versatile carry positions, it’s designed to keep little hips supported and parents more comfortable along the way.

Is Tushbaby Bad for Your Back?

The Tushbaby Hip Carrier is designed to save your back, not strain it. With built-in lumbar support and a wide, weight-distributing waistband, it promotes proper posture and eases pressure on your back, shoulders, and arms. Unlike traditional carriers that pull on your upper body, Tushbaby shifts the weight to your hips, so you can carry longer, more comfortably, and without the next-day aches.

How Many Carry Positions Does Tushbaby Offer?

The Tushbaby Hip Carrier offers four carry positions to keep up with every stage, mood, and errand: face-to-face, outward-facing, side-carry, and feeding support. From nursing at home to hauling a toddler through Target, it adapts to whatever your day demands. Add The Snug for two additional hands-free positions and extra versatility when you need both arms back.

One carrier built to last, and endless ways to make it work for you. Shop the Tushbaby Hip Carrier and see why it earns its place on the daily roster.
