The Evenflo Snugli baby carrier is only part of the latest evolution of baby carriers. These contraptions have been around as long as mankind, starting out as a length of clothes slung around the shoulder and over the centuries evolving into the sleek, light weight and highly versatile versions we know today.
Nowadays as parents we can choose from framed and frameless, from front, hip and back carriers, from baby slings and wraps, with or without canopy, sun visors and storage compartments. The Evenflo Snugli baby carrier alone comes in a variety of versions.
The Evenflo Snugli baby carrier, as are other brand names, are becoming increasingly popular since more and more parents understand what should always have been obvious: that a baby will feel most safe and secure and comforted right on their parent's body, instead of a stroller or such.
Conviction grows that this physical closeness is essential for a babies early development of a bond and relationship with its parents. Using an Evenflo Snugli baby carrier gives you a whole list of advantages over pushing your baby in a stroller, physically disconnected from you.
If you try it you will be sure to notice that a baby in direct physical contact with you will cry less that one lying in a stroller. Now carrying your child in your arms at all times will wear you out quickly and occupy your hands. Whereas a child carrier backpack will keep your baby right with you at all time, enable you to carry it comfortably for both you and the baby and will keep your hands free to go about your tasks.
All the different kinds of infant carriers can be placed in 4 main categories:
Baby carrier slings or wraps for the use with newborns. The baby is cradled upright or lying down in soft cloth, which is wrapped around the parent's body and shoulder. The baby's body is excellently supported and gives parents the necessary privacy when tending the baby.
Hip or Side baby carriers are similar in design to the baby sling or wrap, but are laid out to carry a child sitting upright on your hip. These are for children that can sit up by themselves.
Front baby carriers, such as the Evenflo Snugli baby carrier, are also used a lot for babies under six months of age, since they can face inward and snuggle up to your body initially and once they grow older and can hold themselves upright they can face outward to participate actively in their surroundings. This is one or the more versatile types and the good quality ones come with harnesses that distribute the baby's weight for more carrying comfort for you.
Child carrier backpacks, with or without a metal frame, are for children able to sit up and support their head. They are great for anything outdoors and are built for greater carrying comfort for long stretches of time. You don't have as direct access to the baby as with a front carrier, but on the other hand this allows you full freedom of your hands for tasks at hand while keeping your baby out of harm's way.
