My Experience as a Mum of Three
Last summer, shortly before the birth of our third child, I was looking for a new baby carrier – not only for our newborn, but also for our two older children. I had already heard quite a lot about LELIBA and started browsing through the shop with great curiosity.
I immediately fell in love with both the designs and the thoughtful way the carriers were described and designed to be used. Shortly afterwards, a parcel with three LELIBA products arrived at our home: the LELIBA Zack Gobi buckle carrier in a beautiful natural beige, the LELIBA Wrap Up Graphite with extra long and wide shoulder straps in a neutral grey tone, and the Kalliat doll carrier.
LELIBA Zack Gobi Buckle Carrier
The absolute favourite carrier of my partner and our two-year-old son.
Martin loved this carrier from the very beginning and especially appreciated how comfortable it felt to wear. He truly enjoys babywearing, but often struggled with back pain after carrying for longer periods. With the LELIBA Zack, this was never an issue. The carrying comfort really stood out to us here.
Thanks to the buckle system, the carrier is very easy to use and especially practical when out and about. Whether hiking or shopping, it is quick and uncomplicated to put on and use.
We also really loved the material and design. The natural fabrics feel wonderful and the soft Gobi colour is timeless and elegant.
One feature I especially love are the leg pads, something I had never seen on any other carrier before. The shoulder straps can be spread widely across the shoulders if needed, and the seat width at the waistband can be adjusted perfectly to fit the baby’s size using the waistband loops.
Thanks to the adjustable back panel height, even our two-year-old son can still use the carrier comfortably and his weight is distributed really well.
I also love the attachment system on the shoulder straps for the removable hood. The Zack carrier allows the individually adjustable pads inside the straps to be combined as needed, and strap protectors can also be attached.
The carrier can be worn on the front, back or hip.
Conclusion
We absolutely love the advantages of the Zack carrier and especially appreciate how quick and uncomplicated it is to use. The Zack carrier is one of our favourite companions for family outings and nap times and can even be used for tandem carrying.
LELIBA Wrap Up Graphite
My absolute favourite carrier.
I personally love woven wraps, so I really enjoy the combination of wrap-style tying together with the structure of a half-buckle carrier. Once again, the carrying comfort stands out for me. I can spread the shoulder straps widely across my shoulders and, thanks to the extra long and wide straps, they can also be spread across the baby’s or toddler’s bottom to distribute the weight even more comfortably.
The waistband is quick to fasten and can be adjusted perfectly to fit the size of the baby using the waistband loops.
The Wrap Up carrier features an adjustable back panel height and, like the Zack carrier, includes leg padding. It can be combined with the individually adjustable shoulder strap padding, and shoulder strap protectors can also be attached. A removable hood is included and can be taken off whenever needed.
I also really like the materials and design of this carrier. The fabrics feel pleasant to the touch, and the Graphite colour is neutral, making it easy to combine with different clothing styles.
As a mother of three, one major advantage for me is that when carrying different children, I only need to adjust the seat width. The shoulder straps can then be tied individually depending on my child's needs and carrying position, whether on the front, back, or hip.
The Wrap Up carrier is part of our daily routine and is a wonderful companion for longer walks, as I can also breastfeed my baby while carrying.
Conclusion: I am very impressed by both the handling and the features of the Wrap Up carrier. Anyone who enjoys experimenting with different tying methods and values a secure carrying experience will be well equipped with this carrier. The Wrap Up offers many advantages and is easy to put on with a little practice.
One drawback is the length of the shoulder straps. When putting the carrier on outdoors, it requires a bit of care to prevent the straps from touching the ground and getting dirty.
The Kalliat Doll Carrier was an instant hit with our daughter and has been in daily use ever since. The colour is beautiful, and the material feels very soft and comfortable.
Our daughter is four years old and can tie the carrier by herself. Her dolls and stuffed animals fit perfectly inside. The carrier can be worn on both the front and the back.
Whether she is playing indoors, outside, or simply coming along for a walk, the carrier is a wonderful way for her to bring her favourite dolls and cuddly toys wherever she goes.
I think this carrier makes a perfect gift for children who are about to become a big sister or big brother, as role play often involves copying what they see around them. Sometimes we stand together in the kitchen, and her doll is in the carrier just like her little brother is in mine.
Conclusion: The doll carrier is a fantastic tool for little explorers. It allows children to playfully step into the role of a parent and care for their favourite companions. It is a lovely gift that brings joy while also encouraging imaginative and meaningful play.
To sum it up once again: I am happy to recommend LELIBA carriers because I know how valuable a good baby carrier can be in everyday life with children.
Whether it's the Zack carrier or the Wrap Up carrier, both are used regularly in our daily life and make many moments easier for us as a family of five. We can get around more easily, experience more together, and babywearing always leaves me with a free hand when needed.
The LELIBA team is dedicated and places great importance on high-quality products. You can truly feel the attention to detail, and that makes carrying even more enjoyable.
Often, it is the small details that make the biggest difference and have the greatest impact. I genuinely enjoy using these carriers and am happy that they have become such an important part of our family's everyday life.
