Which baby carrier is suitable from birth?

A baby carrier suitable from birth should securely support your newborn while also adapting flexibly to both of you. It's important that the carrier can be used from around 3 kg and doesn't require an additional newborn insert. Rookie baby carriers are designed to offer optimal support from the very beginning and safely accompany you through the first weeks and months.

Thanks to stepless adjustability, the carriers adapt not only to your baby, but also to different body shapes – whether large or small.

Ergonomic baby carrier for newborns

As baby carriers for newborns, the Rookie carriers support the healthy M-position (frog-leg position) and a naturally rounded back. The adjustable base grows with your baby and promotes healthy hip development from day one.

This ensures your baby lies ergonomically correct, close to your body and well supported – an important basis for relaxed and safe carrying.

Suitable for everyday use, comfortable & well thought out

With a baby carrier from Rookie, you can keep your baby safe and secure while keeping your hands free – whether you're out for a walk, shopping, or going about your daily routine at home. The carriers are easy to put on by yourself and are suitable for both front and back carrying.

Thanks to the high position of the belly strap, the baby carrier can even be used comfortably after a cesarean section, as it sits far away from the sensitive scar area.

High-quality materials & practical extras

Our baby carriers are made from breathable organic cotton, ensuring a comfortable carrying climate in every season. Practical extras like integrated sun protection (UV50), a winter cover, and machine washability make the Rookie baby carrier a durable companion for your family.

Award winning baby carrier & recommended by parents and midwives

Rookie baby carriers have won multiple awards and are considered by many parents to be the best baby carriers on the market. Their well-thought-out ergonomics, high level of comfort and modern design have won over not only families, but also midwives and babywearing consultants, who recommend Rookie for its ergonomic features and ease of use.

FAQs

When can I start using a ROOKIE baby carrier from birth?

ROOKIE baby carriers are suitable from birth and can generally be used from approx. 3 kg.

They are designed to fit your baby perfectly without the need for an additional newborn insert and provide secure support right from the start.

Are ROOKIE baby carriers ergonomic for newborns?

Yes. ROOKIE baby carriers support the squat-spread position (M-position) and a naturally rounded back.

This ergonomic position is particularly important for the healthy development of your newborn's hips.

Do I need a newborn insert for ROOKIE?

No. ROOKIE baby carriers are designed so that they can be used from birth without a separate newborn insert.

The continuously adjustable design allows the carrier to be tailored to your baby's individual needs.

Are ROOKIE baby carriers recommended by midwives?

ROOKIE baby carriers are recommended by midwives and babywearing consultants because they meet ergonomic criteria and are easy to use in everyday life.

Many parents appreciate its intuitive use and high level of comfort.

Can I use the ROOKIE baby carrier after a caesarean section?

Yes, many parents use the ROOKIE baby carrier even after a caesarean section.

The abdominal belt sits high on the waist and therefore does not lie directly on the sensitive scar area, which can make it more comfortable to wear.

What materials are ROOKIE baby carriers made of?

ROOKIE baby carriers are made from high-quality, breathable materials such as organic cotton. They are skin-friendly, durable and suitable for everyday use.

How long can I carry my baby in the ROOKIE baby carrier?

There is no set time limit. The important thing is that your baby is sitting correctly in the carrier and that you both feel comfortable.

Breaks and changing positions are recommended – always listen to your own feelings and those of your baby.

How does the Rookie baby carrier differ from standard baby carriers?

Our baby carriers are not only beautiful, but also really easy to put on and adjust to the correct ergonomic position.

The soft shoulder straps adapt perfectly to your body shape and distribute your baby's weight optimally.

Compared to many other carriers, the Premium Elite also impresses with many practical features such as a fold-out headrest, extra neck padding (ideal for newborns), organic fabrics with UV protection and free carrying advice.

Can I carry my baby on my back?

Yes, thanks to the variable shoulder strap guide in X or H shape, the Rookie Premium Elite offers you the flexibility to carry your baby both on your chest and on your back.

We recommend carrying your baby on your back from around 6 months of age, once your baby has stable head and torso control.

Can I breastfeed in the carrier?

Yes, the foldable headrest provides additional privacy when breastfeeding.

To breastfeed, position your baby appropriately and ensure that they are sitting safely and comfortably – the headrest can be used for added discretion.

Can I wash the carrier?

Yes, you can wash your Rookie: hand wash or machine wash on a delicate cycle at 30°C, do not bleach, do not tumble dry, do not iron, do not dry clean.

Which carrying positions does the Premium Elite support?

The Premium Elite is optimised for front and back carrying. Thanks to the integrated newborn function, you can carry your baby on your front from birth and on your back from around 6 months.

For ergonomic reasons, wearing the device facing forwards is not recommended.

Does the baby carrier fit both me and my partner?

Yes! All Rookie baby carriers are one-size-fits-all, so both tall men and petite women (or vice versa) can use the same carrier.

Thanks to the adjustable waist belt, it can be individually adjusted and is suitable for waist sizes from approx. 64 cm to 135 cm – for maximum comfort and a perfect fit.

Can I carry my baby facing outwards in the Rookie?

Carrying your baby facing outwards is not recommended by experts, which is why the Rookie baby carrier does not support this position.

One important reason is the squat-spread position, which is essential for the healthy development of your baby's spine and hip joints. When carrying your baby in front, their legs and back are stretched, which can affect their still-soft hip joints.
