T
he modern Mei Tai is based on traditional Asian baby carriers. In a Mei Tai baby carrier, the baby can be worn on the wearer's back or front. The design is simple: a panel of fabric with supporting straps to go around the waist and over the shoulders. Mei Tai baby carriers are easy to use and their two-shouldered design makes them comfortable with even the heaviest babies.


Mei Tai baby carriers are wonderful for many reasons
  • Mei tais are simple to use and need no adjusting -- just tie and go!
  • Mei tais easily conform to you and your baby's bodies, and they can be used from the newborn stage all the way through the toddler years.
  • Two-shouldered design distributes the weight of heavier babies, making for a comfortable and ergonomic carry
  • Mei tais are very versatile: they can be worn on the front, the hip or as a baby backpack carrier
  • The compact design of mei tais makes them diaper bag friendly
  • Our mei tais come in a wide range of fabrics: fun, fashionable and funky, and they're fully reversible (for dad!)
  • Ages: newborn through toddler

BabyHawk Mei Tai
It would be easy to love BabyHawk Mei Tai Carriers just for their gorgeous and stylish prints.  From punk-inspired designs, to sassy geometrics, to luscious florals, there is certain to be a BabyHawk to fit your style.  The design is as simple as possible, while adding just enough fabric and padding to make it a dream to wear for extended periods.  The sturdy headrest and more structured design makes for a mei tai that is very supportive with less fabric
Kozy Carrier Mei Tai
Designed and owned by a work at home mom, the Kozy Carrier is a modern version of the Asian Mei Tai, otherwise known as an Asian Baby Carrier (ABC). With wide padded shoulder straps, a padded curved head support, and sturdy durable fabrics, the Kozy was designed for the comfort of not only you but your child as well. And with its generous sized body, it not only supports your child throughout their legs, bum and back, but it is made to grow with your child. It can be used from birth through toddlerhood and beyond . . . making the Kozy a GREAT value.
