Hands-free

Hands-Free: No. Keep one arm around child at all times.

While the Tushbaby Hip Seat Carrier can be used from birth as feeding support, it isn’t fully hands-free, so you’ll need to keep one arm around your baby for safety. Hands-Free: No (maker comparison widget). Go hands-free with the Snug Attachment (sold separately). The Snug Attachment is sold separately, so this carrier is still not hands-free.
