Standard Size Baby Carriers — Birth to Toddler

Standard size carriers are designed for babies from birth (or about 7 lbs) through toddlerhood (around 35-45 lbs, depending on the brand). This is the most versatile size range and the best starting point for most families.

Browse standard size buckle carriers, half buckles, mei tais, and onbuhimos from Didymos, LennyLamb, Oscha, Girasol, Happy! Baby, and Integra. Each carrier features adjustable panels that grow with your baby, providing proper ergonomic support from the early weeks through the toddler years.

When to Size Up

Most families use a standard carrier until their child is 18-24 months before transitioning to a toddler size carrier for better support as your little one grows. Not sure which size you need? Our Try Before You Buy program lets you test before committing.
