The OnBoard SportsBaby™ infant carrier is the revolutionary, patent-pending, dual-purpose soft carrier designed for all types of weather and recreation, the perfect choice for active moms and dads who live life “on the go.”

It’s the ONLY carrier you’ll need! Take Baby on a walk, in the pool, in the snow and rain, camping, or to the beach. In every season, in water and on land, your baby can stay close to you while you get fit and active together.

Our patent-pending SportsBaby™ fitness infant carrier is made of our unique StruXure™ material combination of two layers of neoprene quilted with antimicrobial foam, making it the most comfortable front-position carrier out there on the market.

Features:
* Versatility - Baby can be positioned to face in or face out, as she gets older
* The carrier resists stain and mildew
* Dries quickly when wet
* Easy to clean
* Special material regulates Baby’s body temperature and allows moisture to pass through it
* Designed for kids 11 lbs - 35 lbs. and at least 21 inches
* The carrier has climbing grade buckles and was tested to withstand 700 lbs of weight
* The SportsBaby™ is ergonomically designed to support your back and shoulders, with flexible fabric to let Baby move and stretch.
* Special flatlock seam design, adjustable nylon webbing straps, and climbing-gear buckles make the SportsBaby™ ideal for the active lifestyle
* Certified by the JPMA for safety.

Carrier position:
* The SportsBaby carrier rides higher than some other carriers. Your chin should touch the top of baby’s head. This helps with weight distribution and is more comfortable for the wearer.
* Only wear carrier in front, never on your back.
* Never leave baby in carrier unless being worn by caregiver.
* Use the top buckles in the front when the baby is small and facing inward. You can also adjust the side straps to pull baby in close to you.
* Always face baby toward you until baby can support his/her head without assistance.
* In facing-in position, always provide enough room between baby's face and your chest to allow for an unobstructed source of air for baby.
* If baby falls asleep facing out, remove from carrier or change baby to facing-in position and turn head to side to allow for unobstructed flow of air.
* The back piece and criss-cross should be just below your shoulder blades.
* The SportsBaby is ergonomically designed to support your back and shoulders, with flexible fabric to let baby move and stretch.
* When reaching down, always bend at the knees, never at the waist, making sure baby stays securely in carrier.

How to wear the SportsBaby carrier:
* Read all instructions before assembling and using soft carrier.
* Slip shoulder straps over head.
* Back piece should rest flat between shoulder blades.
* Fasten both waist buckles snugly.

Placing baby in SportsBaby carrier:
* On one side of carrier, detach the Velcro on the lower tab, and detach upper tab swivel hook on shoulder strap on same side.
* Properly place child in carrier, including leg and arm placement.
* If placing child in carrier facing out (after baby has developed good head support), place arms above armholes.
* If placing child in carrier facing in, place arms through armholes.
* Attach Velcro on other lower tab, fasten buckle over Velcro.
* Fasten remaining upper tab swivel hood to D-Ring on shoulder strap.
* Check to assure all buckles, snaps, straps, and adjustments are snug and secure before each use, including leg straps.
* Pull straps to assure snug fit.

    1. The most comfortable carrier I've tried! My baby loves it! Review by Kayli

      “I love this carrier and so does my son. I have a Snugli brand one but he didn't like that one very much because the front flap part doesn't fold down far enough, or even stay down when I do get it folded down. It just ends up unfolding in his face and he wants out. That's why I love the SportsBaby™ — the front part folds down to about his chest, just under his arm pits so he can stick his arms out and look around. I don't have to worry about the flap folding up either, it just stays down perfectly and my soon loves it because he can see and be part of what is happening without something unfolding in his face. My other favorite part about the carrier is the material. It is so soft and easy to clean because it is made for water!! I can just put my son in the carrier and go out into the pool if I want and don't have to worry about him because I know he is right there with me. I thought that was a very creative idea. Like I said before, I love this carrier and so does my son, it is the only one he doesn't cry in while he is in it.” (Posted on 2/3/10)

      “I just wanted to pass along my feedback for the SportsBaby™ carrier. It works really well. I used it in the pool with my 2 month-old this summer, and it was great to be able to cool both of us off, and enjoy pool time with the older kids. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's easy to put on, and I think it works well. It’s as convenient as a Baby Bjorn, only more functional and versatile.” (Posted on 2/3/10)

      “I love this carrier. I want my son to love being outside as much as I do. The SportsBaby™ has been perfect. I have taken him swimming, hiking, camping, boating and have even taught tennis lessons while he was in his carrier in front of me! I love this carrier!!!” (Posted on 2/3/10)

    6. Works great on walks and in the water Review by Amanda

      “The SportsBaby™ carrier is one of my favorite and most versatile baby gifts: I can take my baby on long walks around the neighborhood, and I can use the carrier in water activities. My husband and I took our infant son with us to Hawaii for New Years, and we used the carrier at the beach and in the hotel swimming pool, and never had to worry about ‘maintenance.’ It never got dirty, and we didn’t have to worry about the fabric getting wet. Plus, my baby loves the soft comfort of the carrier. It definitely fits our lifestyle!” (Posted on 2/3/10)

    7. I LOVE this carrier!!! Review by Quinn

      I LOVE this carrier!!! I am totally sold! Wow! What a great product!! I loved how easy it was to get my baby in and out. I loved how many places there were to customize the tightness. I loved how my baby was so comfortable in it. I also loved how soft the fabric was. It was really comfortable; every part of it. It's a terrific product, and I would say the best carrier out there on the market! We will not go swimming without it. It was amazing!! I'm not saying this to be nice; I really, truly liked it. I've got a Snugli & will never, ever go back to it now. It always felt so awkward & stiff. Only one of my babies would even let us put them in it. The SportsBaby™ is a BILLION times better. Way to go on a fantastic product!!! (Posted on 2/3/10)
