Boba Classic Baby Carrier 2G
We love the Boba carrier so much, we gave one away! Easier on the back and shoulders than most external frame carriers and even the soft Baby Bjorn, Boba does double-duty, fitting both infants and toddlers comfortably (for parent and child). Plus it’s very pack-able; you can roll it up and store it in larger luggage if needed. For families who don’t like to be restricted by strollers, a Boba will allow you to go where you need to go, baby aboard!
Peanut Shell Baby Sling
One of my all-time favorite ways to carry a baby on-the-go, the Peanut Shell baby sling’s simplistic design makes packing it, wearing it, and getting baby into it quickly a breeze. We carried our three-month-old all over San Francisco in a Peanut Shell, without a single problem. Plus, how fun are the
patterns?!
Regalo My Cot Portable Bed
This little travel cot has come in handy so many times, from trips to Grandma’s house to camping trips to road trips (and fitting in an extra kid into hotel rooms…shhh). It’s affordable, fits kids up to 6-7, and always works in a pinch!
Kelty Journey 2.0 Child Frame Carrier
We love this baby and child carrier! It’s versatile, fitting a wide range of both parents and passengers, comfortable, and has lots of storage space. It’s made by Kelty KIDS, so you know it’s high quality, too. Well worth the investment if your family spends significant time traveling, hiking, walking, or camping!
