Around My Baby + KokoPax Baby Backpack Carrier Giveaway

August 1, 2011 By

Best Baby Carriers
I never really realized just how much I needed my hands and arms free until I had a baby. Both of the boys loved to be held when they were babies, but it was hard for me because I felt like I could never get anything done. Now that I’ve been there and done that, a carrier is something that I always recommend when I hear others say, what’s one thing you need when you have a baby?


Around My Baby is an online resource for all things baby carrier. You can find everything there from Baby Carriers, Slings, Pouches and Wraps. You’ll see brands that you recognize and have a huge selection to choose from. One carrier that they have at Around My Baby is the KokoPax baby backpack carrier. It comes in a ton of cute designs, and is perfect for everyday use.

I actually have a Kokopax, and have had it for 2 years. I used it until Rowan was over 2 1/2. It saved me a few times in the grocery store. Taking two young kids to the grocery store is no easy task, but I remember putting Rowan in the Kokopax, and Chandler in the front of the cart and being able to get so much done. I even had a woman comment on how clever and smart it was to have one of those with a small toddler. I couldn’t agree more. The padding is great, with lots of support, and you can use the carrier from 6 months, up to 2 years or 35 lbs. Here is a video review that I posted a few years ago when I first got the Kokopax baby carrier.

After having it for this amount of time, it’s held up wonderfully and would be a product I recommend.

Because we will try for another baby next year, I’ve got my eye on some other cute carriers that Around My Baby carries. I’m totally loving this Petunia Pickle Bottom Sling.  Around My Baby is an easy website to navigate, and also has great features like a baby carrier videos section, where you can see how to’s and products in use!
