Izmi Breeze Toddler (SSC358) Check Availability

Overview

Breathable, fold-small adjustable carrier weighting just 600g, the Izmi Breeze Toddler is great for children from around 9 months to 3 years (on average, adjust for kids at the upper and lower ends of the centiles!)

I find this a really adjustable option for bigger kids but I have noticed that it works best in a back carry when you have one or more of the following:

  • Quite a long/tall toddler
  • A toddler who isn't that bothered about seeing over your shoulder

If you've got a smaller child who is very keen to see over your shoulder, a high back carry in something like an onbuhimo might be more helpful until they're a bit bigger!

Please note that a back carry in this is advised only when your passenger can sit up unaided: if you need to carry a big kid who can't sit unaided, book an appointment for 1:1 support and extra tips!

Bullet points for a simple front carry (same as for the baby version!)

  • Adjust width of the panel base using the velcro to match your child's knee to knee width when they're held in arms
  • Put on the waistband and cinch up - your babies' bottom will be an inch or two lower than the top of this - adjust to work best for their height (you want their head neither in your chin or in any squishable zones ;)
  • Cuddle your baby
  • Lean back, holding them to you with one hand and gather the panel between their legs
  • With a flat hand, smooth it up their back, letting them 'sit' down into it
  • Holding the panel at the top of their back, put one shoulder strap up
  • Find it behind your back, pull down to get it snug on your shoulder, and bring it round to clip on your opposite side
  • Same again on the other strap
  • Done - adjust as needed, and do a quick safety check
