FAQs

When someone refers to a Tula, they are most likely referring to our soft structured ergonomic canvas carriers, or buckle carriers. Our Tula Baby Carriers are made from 100% cotton canvas and quality fabrics and come in a wide range of prints and colors. The Tula Baby Carrier is available in two sizes, Standard (Baby) and Toddler.

Additionally, Tula carriers include our Woven Wraps, Ring Slings, and Wrap Conversion Carriers!

Baby Tula Woven Wraps are long pieces of fabric, specifically woven to carry your child. They are sold in a variety of sizes ranging from size 2-7, based on the length of the wrap. Designed and woven specifically for Baby Tula, our wraps are OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified. They represent our passion for textiles, design, and attention to detail, but ultimately the beauty of babywearing. 

Baby Tula Ring Slings are simple, one shoulder carriers that have been made from our woven wraps. They are attached to a set of two rings at one end. These carriers are available in two sizes; S/M and L/XL. The size of the Ring Sling refers to the length of the ‘tail’. When your baby is being worn in your Ring Sling, there will be a tail of extra fabric. A S/M will provide a small to medium length tail for most wearers and a L/XL will offer a long to extra long tail.

Tula Wrap Conversion Carriers are structurally the same as Tula Baby Carriers and are offered in the same sizes. However, these carriers are made with Woven Wrap material, lending them to the beauty and specialty of Tula Woven Wraps.

Tencel^® is a natural, man-made fiber and is the trade name for the generic lyocell. The fiber is derived from the pulp of sustainably grown Eucalyptus trees and is both incredibly strong and luxuriously soft. Tencel^® fibers are amazingly breathable and possess great moisture control, making them an ideal material for woven wraps and ring slings.

We are unable to offer detailed information regarding production of our Tula carriers, including estimates on when prints will return, as this is based on availability of materials, production constraints, and many other factors. We do try to offer many options on a regular basis to accommodate many different preferences. We recommend watching our Facebook page and for any announcements of new prints, and our website for any restocked prints!

A couple of our top tips are:

• Dress your little one appropriately in light clothing
• Use a lightweight, natural-fiber carrier, ideally with only one pass or panel
• Stay well hydrated
• Use a Coast Carrier with a mesh panel for more ventilation

The Free-to-Grow baby carrier measurements are:

• Depending on the snap setting, the seat panel width is adjustable from 13 cm - 38 cm.
• Depending on the panel height adjusters, the height of the panel is adjustable from 28 cm - 43 cm tall.
• Hip Belt Measures 13 cm tall and 69 cm wide. Additional webbing extends approximately 76 cm (waistband total of ~ 145 cm long).
• Weight of the carrier: 0,8 kg

The weight limit for the Free-to-Grow Carrier is 3,2 - 20,4 kg.

The Free-to-Grow Carrier has a fully adjustable panel allowing you to use it starting when baby is just 3,2 kg without an infant insert. The Free-to-Grow Carrier features three width settings – narrow, middle and wide, and two height settings – short and tall, to accommodate babies of many sizes with a customized fit. Both Standard Tula Baby Carriers and Free-to-Grow Carriers can be used until 20 kg. If you’d like to use the Standard Tula Baby Carrier before the 7 kg minimum, you’ll need to use a Baby Tula Infant Insert (sold separately).

The narrow setting can be used for newborns and babies at a minimum weight of 3,2 kg, approximately 0-3 months. The middle setting can be used for babies 3-9 months of age, and the widest setting is suitable for taller babies 9 months and older. (Please refer to page 3 of the Free-To Grow Instructions “Correct Positioning" or see below). Please note that these recommendations are guidelines and may vary depending on the height and size of the individual baby.

*Correct positioning:

The width of the panel should be determined by the individual baby's comfort and leg span. The ergonomically correct position for baby is to be positioned with the base of the carrier supporting them from knee to knee, with their knees slightly higher than their bottom in an "M" shaped position. When choosing which seat width to use with your baby, choose the width that supports their legs in an "M" shaped position with their legs supported to the crease of the knee. If the edge of the panel rests on the baby's calves, rather than under the bend in their knees, then the width you have chosen is too wide. Always ensure proper placement of baby in the carrier including leg placement.

We do not recommend placing your child in forward facing position in the Free-to-Grow Carrier.

We are working on bring a Coast option to our Free-to-Grow lineup of carriers – please stay tuned for updates on our social media channels.

We do not recommend using the Free-to-Grow Carrier until baby is at least 3,2 kg.

Our Explore Carrier, Free-to-Grow Carrier, and Standard Carrier have been acknowledged by The International Hip Dysplasis Institute (IHDI) as "hip-healthy" products.

The IHDI recognizes that Baby Tula has developed products that consider the important of healthy hip development during infancy. This is especially important during the early stages of hip development in the first few months after birth.

The Explore Baby Carrier offers multiple positions to carry baby including front carry facing out, front carry facing in, and back carry (facing in). Each position provides a natural, ergonomic position that promotes healthy hip and spine development for baby.

Click here to shop the full Explore Baby Carrier collection.

The Tula Explore Baby Carrier allows you to front carry your baby in the facing out position when your baby is between 5,9-10 kg/13-22 lb, has head and neck control, and is tall enough to have their face fully clear the top of the body panel while being seated in the carrier. It is important to watch your baby’s cues when using the facing out position. Your child should not sleep in this position. If your child falls asleep in the facing out position, be sure to position them back to facing in or take them out of the carrier.

The narrow setting can be used for newborns and babies at a minimum weight of 3,2 kg/7 lb, approximately 0-3 months. The middle setting can be used for babies 3-9 months of age, and the widest setting is suitable for taller babies 9 months and older. Please note that these recommendations are guidelines and may vary depending on the height and size of the individual baby.

 *Correct positioning: The width of the panel should be determined by the individual baby's comfort and leg span. When choosing which seat width to use with your baby, choose the width that supports their legs in an "M" shaped, spread squat position with their legs supported to the crease of the knee. If the edge of the panel rests on the baby's calves, rather than under the bend in their knees, then the width you have chosen is too wide. Always ensure proper placement of baby in the carrier including leg placement.

Be sure that the seat width is always at the widest setting when using the facing out position.

Yes, we have responsibly designed a deep seated facing out carry position that supports a baby’s natural curved spine and spread squat position. This innovative design allows baby to be placed in a more seated position rather than dangling.

When determining what height position to place the support pillow in, ensure that your baby is visible and their ear is clearing the top of the panel. The support pillow can provide additional support for a taller child or a sleeping child in the front carry facing in or in the back carry. The support pillow should not be used in the tall position when your child is facing out.

The support pillow flipped down and inside the panel of the Explore Baby Carrier provides additional support for newborns with little to no head or neck control. Once your baby begins to show signs of head and neck control, you may move the pillow to the outside of the carrier.

A wonderful benefit of all Tula Carriers is the ability to nurse baby while they are being carried. To do this, you can loosen your arm straps and lower the waistband, without unbuckling any buckles, and position baby to your chest. You will want to reposition baby once they are done feeding or if they fall asleep.

The original Tula Baby Carrier was designed to last for long periods of carrying, and we’ve found that a snug hug fit allows for baby’s weight to be better supported when baby is facing inward. However, our community has long been asking us to create a baby carrier that offers the facing out position. We worked to responsibly design an ergonomic carrier that is easy to use and supports the facing out position. 

Click here to shop the full Explore Baby Carrier collection.

We do not recommend using the Explore Baby Carrier until baby is at least 3,2 kg/7 lb. The weight range recommended for the front carry facing out was determined with comfort and baby’s size in mind. Before attempting this position, ensure that your child has head and neck control, is tall enough to have their face fully clear the top of the body panel while being seated in the carrier, and meets the minimum weight of 5,9 kg/13 lb.

Aside from ensuring your Explore Baby Carrier is in the proper settings for the front carry facing out position, it’s important to watch your baby for cues that they are comfortable and happy in the facing out position. Watch your baby for signs of over-stimulation or tiredness. If your baby falls asleep, be sure to turn them back into the facing in position. For your comfort and baby’s, you may want to carry baby in the facing out position for short periods of time.

Our Explore Baby Carrier enables you to carry your baby in the forward facing out (world facing) position while still providing the same adjustable width settings as the Tula Free-To-Grow Carrier. The Tula Explore Carrier also features a padded, support pillow that can be adjusted to provide head and neck support for newborns, or to add extra panel height for taller babies.

The standard (Baby) Tula is recommended for children from 7 – 20 kg. You can use the standard Tula for newborns, combined with an infant insert 

Seat Extenders can also be added to the standard to lengthen the “life” of the carrier by adding to the width of the body panel.

The Baby Tula Toddler Carrier is recommended beginning when the child is a minimum of 11 kg and 80 cm tall. Due to the height and width of the Toddler carrier, we do not recommend using the toddler size with a newborn or an infant below our minimum height recommendation.

This 2 year old is 86 cm tall and weighs 12 kg. He fits comfortably in both the Standard Baby Tula Carrier as well as the Toddler Baby Tula Carrier.

We do not recommend back carrying your child until your baby has strong and consistent head, neck, and torso control, and can push him or herself independently into, and remain in, a seated position on a consistent basis.

Once your sweet little one hits 3,2 kg, he or she can be worn in a ring sling or woven wrap. These lovely carriers are perfect for your wee babe – they are just fabric, rings, and cuddles. Or, if you prefer an ergonomic carrier, the use of an infant insert can make them an accessible option from birth (required for use with a baby between 3,2 – 7 kg). Read our blog post on safety and instructions of carrying your newborn.

Our baby carriers are designed to give baby an ergonomic seat that is comfortable for baby’s growth and development. The canvas material is also lightweight and breathable keeping baby warm enough.

We do not recommend back carrying your child until baby has strong and consistent head, neck, and torso control, and can push him or herself independently into, and remain in, a seated position on a consistent basis.

We have several blog posts from chiropractors, babywearing educators, and other healthcare professionals who all recommend babywearing and utilizing Tula Baby Carriers. For more information, read our blog. If you have a specific medical concern related to carrying your child in a Tula Baby Carrier, please consult your personal medical professional.

Baby Tula recommends that standard baby carriers be used from 7 – 20 kg. Infants and newborns weighing 3,2 – 7 kg must use the Baby Tula Infant Insert (sold separately).

Infants and newborns weighing between 3,2 – 7 kg must use the Baby Tula Infant Insert with the Standard Tula Baby Carrier. The Infant Insert is recommended until your baby can sit independently with knees dangling down freely in an ergonomic spread squat position and is a minimum of 7 kg.

Baby Tula recommends that toddler carriers be used between 11 – 27 kg and beginning when the child is a minimum 81 cm tall.

Infants and newborns weighing between 3,2 – 7 kg must use the Baby Tula Infant Insert with the Standard Tula Baby Carrier to enable a cozy carrying position, ensuring adequate head/neck support and healthy maturation of the spine in a front carry.

Please visit our Product Instructions page for a video on how to use our Tula Baby Carrier.

While the baby carrier is an indispensable item for ease of travel, especially in airports, FAA regulations ban the use of baby carriers during take-off and landing during flights. See our blog on how Babywearing Makes Traveling with Kids Easy!

Becoming comfortable with your carrier is important for you and baby. Here are some helpful tips:

• Practice using your carrier, at first, without your baby so that you can begin to become comfortable with it, yourself.
• Be sure that baby is comfortable and happy before you try using the carrier at first. A clean diaper, full belly, and already resting baby may help prevent any fussing.
• Often babies need a moment to settle into the carrier, so may fuss in the beginning. Once they are secured begin to move to help sway them. Bouncing a little or going for a walk may be just what they need to settle.
• If baby continues to fuss, take a break. Keeping your first few carries short might help baby become more comfortable each time.
  

Families who have tried our Tula carriers have noted the simple, easy-to-adjust design of our carrier. Tula carriers are easy to get to a comfortable fit with and hold baby snug and close to your body. Our curved padded shoulders and additional webbing help to personalize the fit of your carrier to your body. Many of our carriers are also made with exclusive designs and prints.

Tula Wrap Conversion Carriers are highly detailed and handmade, and therefore are made in very limited quantities. We have wrap conversion stockings approximately every month on our EU website; these stockings are announced ahead of time on our Facebook page along with a preview of some of the carriers that will be stocked. Keep an eye on our Facebook page for updates!

The wrap conversion carriers come in three different 'styles' - full, half or semi. Each style uses a different amount of woven wrap to create the carrier. To see the exact differences of each style, visit our blog post - 'What's the difference between canvas, semi, half and full Tula's?'

Baby Tula Ring Slings are made using babywearing-specific Sling Rings affixed securely to medium weight woven wrap fabric woven specifically for Baby Tula.

Which size Ring Sling should I get?
The size that will work for most users is roughly based on t-shirt sizing.  Both can be worn by most users, but the L/XL would result in a longer tail (which can be used to cover baby’s legs in sun, or to wrap around the rings for a polished, cosmetic faux knot look).

S/M is around 196 cm and L/XL is around 221 cm unwashed (slight variation is intentional as we cut to allow for up to 20% shrinkage with our Tencel blend).

The size that will work for most users is roughly based on t-shirt sizing. Both can be worn by most users, but the L/XL would result in a longer tail (which can be used to cover baby’s legs in sun, or to wrap around the rings for a polished, cosmetic faux knot look).

It is fine to leave your ring sling threaded between uses as long as you are actively using it on a regular basis.

We would recommend wearing the shoulder of the ring sling capping your shoulder so that it comes down over the top of your arm, if possible. It helps to spread the sling widely across your back to help distribute the weight as well. And keep your sling snug, as this will help support your baby better. Finally, make sure baby is nice and snug with a good supported seat in the hammock of the carrier.

Physiologically, babies develop so that their placement looks different at different ages and stages. Generally, we would recommend wearing your baby in a deep squat with knees above bottom, and with baby's weight resting in the hammock of the sling. Keep in mind that red lines on baby's legs don't always mean that baby is uncomfortable - they can be similar to the marks left on your face by your pillow. That said, pay close attention to ensuring that baby has adequate circulation, an open airway, and is always visible and kissable.

Your baby should be close enough to kiss. It sounds like you're not getting it tight enough. Make sure the shoulder of the sling is also cupping your shoulder and that the sling is spread widely across your back. To tighten more easily, try tightening from under your arm and across baby's back by bringing the slack in the sling to the rings before pulling it through, and always maintain a secure M-position for baby, who will be seated in the hammock of the carrier. I would recommend starting with your sling pre-adjusted so you don't have make as many changes once baby is in the sling!

It sounds like your bottom rail might be too snug. Keep in mind that the bottom rail is supposed to be tight enough to keep knees above bum, but not too tight.

It would help to make sure that you are tightening the fabric evenly across baby's back and bottom and that knees are higher than bottom to create the seat. If the bottom rail is too tight, it can sometimes pull baby off to an angle as well, but you do want it to be tight enough to maintain a secure M-position for baby. Try tightening from under your arm and across baby's back by bringing the slack in the sling to the rings before pulling it through.

Since the ring sling is designed to cup your shoulder, you won't have as much range of motion with that side. For that reason, some users wear the sling on their non-dominant shoulder so that they still have full range of motion with their dominant hand!

We personally prefer arms in because it is cozy, but it is safe for a baby to be arms out when larger, as long as there is adequate coverage all the way up to the armpits, as long as baby has appropriate torso and head control, and as long as baby is securely attached.

Yes! Read our blog post where we share how to breastfeed in a carrier, ring sling or woven wrap.

You can absolutely nurse your newborn in a ring sling in the cradle position. Make sure that baby is secure while nursing and that his or her knees are still higher than bottom (you will probably need to carefully loosen the top rail and tighten the bottom rail once moving baby to the cradle position). BE ALERT. You must always conscious of your newborn while nursing and that his or her chin is not on her chest. Bring your baby back up to the upright position as soon as you are finished, tightening up the rails and making sure baby is visible, and their airways are clear.

You can wear a baby in a ring sling beginning at around 3,5 kg. You want to remember the ABCs - airway (clear, chin off of chest), body positioning (neck and trunk control, knees higher than bottom, and a seated M-position), and comfort (get help if this isn't there!). Small babies in particular need to have extra attention paid to their airway as well as their positioning.

The best position for a newborn carry is to be worn high and snug on your chest. Always make sure she is visible and kissable, and keep an eye on her airway to ensure that it is clear. Make sure her chin is at least two adult fingers above her chest. We recommend turning her head to one side so that she can rest her cheek on your chest. For additional support, you can twist your tail to create a long "cushioned" rail, bring the twisted tail up against your baby and flip the top edge over the twisted tail to create a cushioned top edge to support baby's head.

Wearing your newborn legs in or legs out is a matter of comfort for your newborn. Some newborns prefer to be worn with their legs out and that is fine. If your newborn is more comfortable being worn with his/her legs in, just make sure that baby's weight is resting on his or her bottom, not their feet or legs.

<p>Our slings are wide enough to support to the base of baby’s head easily. That said, it can be helpful to roll a piece of cloth (a prefold diaper or a small dishtowel, or even the tail of the sling!) into the top rail of the ring sling to support a small baby's neck when they fall asleep.</p>

A good rule of thumb is to not wear your little one in a hip carry until you find that you "default" to carrying your kiddo on your hip ordinarily.

Many toddlers really enjoy the hip carry, but tummy to tummy is still okay as long as caregiver and child are both comfortable.

The waistband and adjustable panel of the Tula Half Buckle Carrier function just like our Free-to-Grow Carrier, but it has distinct shoulder tie straps instead of buckle shoulder straps. These straps are crossable and allows for the additional hip carry position.

The narrow setting can be used for newborns and babies at a minimum weight of 7lbs, approximately 0-3months. The middle setting can be used for babies 3-9 months of age, and the widest setting is suitable for taller babies 9 months and older. (Please refer to page 3 of the Free-To Grow Instructions “Correct Positioning" or see below). Please note that these recommendations are guidelines and may vary depending on the height and size of the individual baby.

*Correct positioning:

The width of the panel should be determined by the individual baby's comfort and leg span. The ergonomically correct position for baby is to be positioned with the base of the carrier supporting them from knee to knee, with their knees slightly higher than their bottom in an "M" shaped position. When choosing which seat width to use with your baby, choose the width that supports their legs in an "M" shaped position with their legs supported to the crease of the knee. If the edge of the panel rests on the baby's calves, rather than under the bend in their knees, then the width you have chosen is too wide. Always ensure proper placement of baby in the carrier including leg placement.

Half Buckle Product Measurements:

• Depending on the snap setting, the seat panel width is adjustable from 13 cm - 38 cm wide
