Popular types of baby carriers are:

Baby slings:
* A broad piece of cloth is tied at the parent's back and fits through the cloth.
* Protects the baby's weight.
* Creates tension on the cloth's outer edges.
* Gives sufficient mobility to the parent.
* Recommended by child development experts due to its psychological benefits.

Baby backpack:
* Allows placing the baby in a seat behind the parent's shoulder.
* Allows a good amount of visibility and hands free movement for parents to pursue work or other activities.

Mei Tei:
* Popular Asian-inspired.
* Considered more ergonomically designed and comfortable to wear.
* Available in different prints and colors.

Baby Bjorn:
* Designed in Sweden.
* Front facing carrier with more free space and visibility.
* Hinders considerable interactions for the parent as the baby is front packed.

Snugli:
* Convenient for parents who like outdoor activities.
* Have straps to fix the carrier around the shoulders.
* Easy to adjust a comfortable fit for the baby.

Ergo:

Tips to Consider:
Consider the following while choosing carrier:

* Type of activity and ease to carry weight: Men work better with outward front packs and back packs. Women prefer to work with inward front packs or slings.

* Choose a comfortable carrier: Take a test run around the store with your baby in the carrier. The carrier fabric should feel soft and light weight. Opt for padded straps and baby seat for the carrier.

* Choose to accommodate your infant's growth: Some carriers, such as slings, become outdated as the infant grows. Check a carrier's ability to carry additional weight so that it can be used longer.

* Check the safety standards: Verify that the product is chemical-free and non-toxic.
