Moby vs Tushbaby

1. Design and Carrying Style:
   • Tushbaby: Tushbaby is a waist-worn baby carrier that features a padded, ergonomic seat for the baby to sit on. It is designed to carry the baby on the parent’s hip, allowing for hands-free carrying and easy access to the child. The carrier has adjustable straps that go over the shoulders and around the waist to provide support and distribute the baby’s weight evenly.
   • Moby Wrap Baby Carrier: The Moby Wrap is a wrap-style baby carrier made from a long, stretchy piece of fabric. It is designed to be wrapped around the parent’s body to create a snug and secure fit for the baby. The wrap allows for various tying configurations, making it customizable to different body sizes and carry positions. The Moby Wrap carries the baby close to the parent’s chest and provides excellent head and neck support for newborns and younger infants.
2. Age and Support:
   • Tushbaby: Tushbaby is more suitable for older babies who can sit up independently, typically around 6 months and older. The padded seat provides support for the baby’s hips and offers a comfortable sitting position.
   • Moby Wrap Baby Carrier: The Moby Wrap is designed to be used from birth and can accommodate newborns and younger infants. It provides full body support for the baby and allows them to be held in a snug, womb-like position, promoting bonding and security.
3. Carrying Time and Convenience:
   • Tushbaby: Tushbaby is convenient for quick in-and-out situations, such as short trips or errands. Its waist-worn design allows for easy on-and-off access to the baby.
   • Moby Wrap Baby Carrier: The Moby Wrap is more suitable for longer carrying sessions, as it evenly distributes the baby’s weight across the parent’s back and shoulders. It is ideal for situations where the parent wants to have the baby close for extended periods and promotes a strong sense of intimacy and bonding.

What would we prefer?

We would prefer the Tushbaby as it provides more freedom of movement, is more adjustable, and does not require the baby to be swaddled.
