Why would I want a soft structured carrier?

 
SSCs are the most familiar style of carrier for many US families. These “backpacks” go on like a traditional backpack. Buckle the waist and place your child in the panel. Then, pull panel up over the child, put your arms through the straps, and clip the chest clip. No tying or knots required!
Parents new to babywearing can ease into carrying with the familiar backpack style. Back carrying is simple, too – you do the same motion, just with your child on your back instead!
Cross strap options maximize the use of this carrier style. Crossed straps provide a different type of support and also allow for hip carries.
With comfort options and simple technique, SSCs are reassuring to caregivers.
A soft structured carrier’s biggest benefit is that the “seat” is already made. You'll need to make sure the height and width are set properly and that child is positioned well in the carrier. But, you don’t have to worry about the bottom “falling out.” This eliminates fear for parents nervous about fabric carriers like wraps and slings.
 
 
You might like an SSC if you:
 
  • Don’t like long pieces of fabric hanging down
 
  • Want something super quick
 
  • Want something easy to learn and easy to pass between caregivers
 
  • Want something familiar and don’t want to learn how to tie
 
You might not like an SSC if you:
 
  • Need customization of fit due to injuries or sensitivities. A long woven wrap would be a better choice for you
