I used a mayawrap baby sling from the time my baby was one week old (the day before we left hospital) to her being over three years old. I liked the way you could put them in different positions depending on the age and situation.
I particularly liked it when she was a toddler because it was so easy to get her in and out of. I found that toddlers alway want to walk but not very far!

Hi Avi
I purchased a hipster seat for my daughter and they are really useful. Much better than carrying them for a period of time. Only problem was when sitting down on public transport that the seat sticks out so you have to take it off or turn around to the back or front which can be difficult as its not easy to turn it. But definitely would recommend it.
Hope that helps

I also have used a mayawrap baby sling since my daughter was young (she is now one year and 19lbs) and it's the best! It's great for a safer ride on public transportation too. They are very comfortable and can be used for kids up to 35lbs! Taylor made slings are good too, but don't have the pocket like the Mayawrap. I have a backpack carrier, snugli front carrier and 3 slings and the slings are the most comfortable of all the carriers.
My friend likes her hip carrier, but she has told me many times that it is good for short distances only as it's not very comfortable.
Good luck!
