Why would I want a soft structured carrier?
-
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
-
Need customization of fit due to injuries or sensitivities. A long woven wrap would be a better choice for you
First, adjust your carrier's panel height and width.
Adjust the height by using the pull tabs on the panel.
Adjust the width by using the Velcro adjuster inside the waistband.
Once you're adjusted, put your baby in the carrier
Front Carry:
- Buckle the waistband with the velcro adjustment side facing you and the panel in front. Be sure to put the buckle through the elastic safety band before closing. This provides extra fall protection for your child.
- Place your child into the panel, facing you. Center them in the panel, then lift the panel up over your child's back. To get the best fit, try to reduce slack in the panel by lifting the straps high in the air and gently bouncing your child into the panel. You want them to sit out in the panel, not on the waistband itself.
- Method A - Put your arms through the ruck straps. Reach behind you to fasten the chest clip. The magnetic clip should fasten easily! Experiment with how loose you leave the straps, including the chest clip, before putting your child in the carrier, to see what's most comfortable for you. When buckled, use the webbing to tighten as is comfortable.
- Method B - Alternate H method, if you can't reach behind your back to clip the chest clip: Prior to putting your child in the carrier, unclip the arm straps so they hang loose, and buckle the chest clip. When your child is in the panel, lift the straps over your head. Your head will go through the top of the "H," above the chest buckle, which you've already clasped. Once the straps are behind you, buckle each arm strap on its respective side. Don't forget to put the buckle through the elastic safety band before buckling
- Method C - Cross-strap method: Prior to putting your child in the carrier, unclip the arm straps so they hang loose, and leave the chest clip unbuckled. With your child in the panel, lift the panel up over their back. One side at a time, lift the arm strap into the air above you, then pull firmly straight down your back. The reduces slack in the panel. Then, cross the strap behind your back to the opposite side and buckle the arm strap in. Do the same for the other strap. Don't forget to put the buckle through the safety elastic before buckling. In this method, you don't need to clip the chest clip- you can remove it completely if you'd like!
- Use the 2-way adjusters to tighten as needed
- Gently move your child's bottom out into the panel, instead of sitting on the waistband. Hold the waistband where the pocket is, and try to keep the pocket straight up and down. Tighten the waistband while holding here. It's easier to tighten if you are lifting your child's weight off of the waistband. Gentle bouncing can also help
- Check to make sure the waistband strap is parallel to the floor. Gently adjust waistband, child in panel, and anything else as needed
Back Carry:
For typically developing babies, you can back or hip carry in the LennyLight SSC when your child has sufficient head and trunk control, usually around 4-6months old. Some sides of readiness include being able to tripod sit or when you're naturally placing your child on your hip in daily life.
Method 1:
Crossed arms
-Cross the arm of the shoulder you will bring your child over underneath the other arm. Use your hands to pin the top edge of the panel to your child in the position you want the carrier to be in when baby is up. So, if you want your child arms in, position the top of the panel and hold onto it at the top of your child's shoulder. For arms out, grab your child under the arms with the panel.
-Move your body into your child (as opposed to twisting your child to you). This will allow you to get your child up into the carrier without twisting the fabric.
Once your child is up:
-Hold tightly to the top of the carrier, pinning the straps with your chin or biting with your teeth. This takes practice!
-Pull the slack down with the bottom of the panel/waistband. Pulling it out can help! Stand up straight and allow gravity to help you. Buckle the waistband, making sure to use the elastic safety band
-Clip the chest clip
-Tighten the webbing as needed
-Gently move your child's bottom out into the panel, instead of sitting on the waistband. Hold the waistband where the pocket is, and try to keep the pocket straight up and down. Tighten the waistband while holding here. It's easier to tighten if you are lifting your child's weight off of the waistband. Gentle bouncing can also help
-Check to make sure the waistband strap is parallel to the floor. Gently adjust waistband, child in panel, and anything else as needed
Method 2:
Hip Scoot
-Buckle the waistband, making sure to use the elastic safety band. Position the panel on your hip on the side you would naturally carry your child. Typically this is slightly more forward on the hip
-Place your child in the panel. Center them in the panel
-When you're satisfied with you child's seat, use the opposite arm from where your child is sitting and put your arm through the arm strap. This is easier if the straps are a little looser prior to starting.
-Using momentum and the strap already on your opposite shoulder, scoot your child behind you. Use your other arm to support your child in the panel as they scoot
-Put your arm through the other strap. Clip the chest clip and adjust your child's position as needed
-Tighten the webbing as needed
-Gently move your child's bottom out into the panel, instead of sitting on the waistband. Hold the waistband where the pocket is, and try to keep the pocket straight up and down. Tighten the waistband while holding here. It's easier to tighten if you are lifting your child's weight off of the waistband. Gentle bouncing can also help
-Check to make sure the waistband strap is parallel to the floor. Gently adjust waistband, child in panel, and anything else as needed
Method 3:
Little Helper
In this method, your child climbs onto your back to help! This method works for older babies.
-Buckle the waistband, putting the buckle through the safety elastic before buckling. Position the panel behind you
-Allow your child to climb onto your back. You can be silly with it! Big kids love to be helpers. Have them hang on at your neck
-Lift the panel up over your child's back, lifting high to remove slack. Let them settle in to the panel
-Put your arms through the straps and clip the chest clip. Adjust your child's position as needed
-Tighten the webbing as needed
-Gently move your child's bottom out into the panel, instead of sitting on the waistband. Hold the waistband where the pocket is, and try to keep the pocket straight up and down. Tighten the waistband while holding here. It's easier to tighten if you are lifting your child's weight off of the waistband. Gentle bouncing can also help
-Check to make sure the waistband strap is parallel to the floor. Gently adjust waistband, child in panel, and anything else as needed

Wrap conversions start out as long woven baby wraps. That fabric is then cut and sewn into a different type of baby carrier. This could be a ring sling, onbuhimo, meh dai, or SSC. Why does it matter?
Long woven wraps are made to carry babies.They're woven in a way that's soft and supportive. They're also breathable. Many wraps are made of easy-care materials.
Designs are woven into the fabric. No screen printing that fades. It's the real deal, straight from the loom!
Carriers that aren't made of long woven wraps are often more stiff. SSC carriers are commonly made with canvas or even plastic. These materials may be durable, but they aren't as comfortable or flexible. There isn't much airflow through the fabric, which can lead to overheating. Patterns are pressed onto the fabric as opposed to being a part of it.
Wrap conversion carriers are as strong and long-lasting as non-wrap conversion carriers. But, they have many other benefits! For the ultimate in comfort for you and your child, a wrap conversion baby carrier is the way to go.

Reviews
I love my lenny light! The color is gorgeous and the carrier is so comfortable. Mama and roo was great too!
I love my LennyLamb Light! While I love my woven wrap, I find that it is more challenging to put on and take off quickly, especially without a mirror or support person. I can easily put my sleeping 2-month-old in the LennyLamb Light without the support of another person or a mirror. My baby loves that he can easily change the direction of his head. I love that it is comfortable, well-constructed, and beautiful. I can easily see that his airways are clear, and it's nice to not have to worry about his head being at a weird angle. It is great for cooking, chores, and taking walks.
This has been my first carrier so I might be biased; but it has been totally worth it. I have started baby wearing once the baby completed 3 months so it was new for both of us & have used almost daily for the past 3 months. The learning curve was not much, the carrier is soft woven, pattern was as in the picture, shoulder straps are very comfortable for both front and back carry. Waist belt has much give working for my postpartum body.
I'm a 3rd time mom. I have a few high end carriers (Sakura Blooms, Baby Bjorn) that are all around the $200+ amount. This carrier is the only one that feels luxurious and hits all the right details! I'm so glad my friend recommended this to me. I love how you can cross the straps in the back for added comfort, the padding is thick but not bulky, the carrier fits into its own bag, and the softness of the cotton/viscose is unmatched! It IS alittle warm for my very hot summer weather (90+ degrees), but because it's so easy to take on and off, I still find myself picking this carrier over my other ones!
Originally, I got the infant carrier for my 2 month old. I am still figuring out the adjustments for him. We realized that the carrier can hold our toddler too. Our toddler loves the carrier. It is a win for us.
