From Birth
Front Carrying
The perfect position for little ones who love to snuggle! This is the best way to keep your little one close to you from birth. It enables a correct spread-squat position for optimal ergonomics and comfort for both you and your baby.

From 5 + Months
Back Carrying
Is your baby older than 5 months and ready to explore the world? Then it's time for back carrying! This carrying option is just as ergonomic and safe but allows babies to look around and stay close to you. It also means more freedom of movement for you, especially when you baby gets bigger.

The perfect set up
1
Adjustable base
To make sure your baby is always sitting in a spread-squat position, adjust the width of the base: there should be enough fabric to rest under both knees.
2
Continuously adjustable
The height of the carrier is continuously adjustable to ensure proper neck support for your baby. Make sure you adjust it to the right height before using the carrier.
3
Removable padding
For extra support while carrying your baby for longer periods, use the padding for the shoulder straps. Or remove it if you prefer carrying without it!
Are you Ready?
Safety check
Unsure if your baby is sitting correctly in their Stokke® Limas™ Carrier? Having your partner or a friend by your side might be useful, or you can start practicing in front of the mirror if you prefer. Here are a few points to check if you want to become a babywearing expert!
Front Carrying
Back panel
The back panel should reach your baby’s neck to provide head support. Always make sure your baby’s nose and mouth are free for easy breathing. Use the straps on top of the back panel to adjust the height.
Spread-squat position:
To promote healthy hip development and ergonomics for your baby, the base of the back panel should support your baby from one knee to the other, and the knees should be slightly higher than the hips.
Close enough to kiss:
You should be able to kiss your baby on top of their head easily. If your baby is too high or too low, simply adjust the waist belt. Carrying your baby too low might cause you back pain.
Carrier snug enough?
For your baby’s safety, when you lean forward your baby should stay close to you.
Comfort
Make sure the straps are not twisted. Fan them out nicely over your shoulders and use the chest belt for better weight distribution.
