PRECAUTIONS FOR USE OF TULA HALF BUCKLE CARRIER:
Read all instructions before assembling and using the soft carrier. Practice putting on your Carrier
before using.
Never use this product when balance or mobility is impaired because of exercise, drowsiness, or
medical conditions. Never use this product while engaging in activities such as cooking and cleaning
which involve a heat source or exposure to chemicals. Never wear a soft carrier while driving or being a
passenger in a vehicle. Be careful when drinking hot beverage to avoid spilling hot drinks onto the baby
while using the carrier. Never unbuckle the waist belt while the baby is in the Carrier. Be aware that as
the baby becomes more active, the child has more risk of falling out of the carrier. Only carry one child at
a time in the baby carrier.
Baby’s chin should NEVER rest on baby’s chest because this partially closes baby’s airway. There
should always be at least two ngers width clearance beneath baby’s chin. Wearer must be sure that
baby’s airway is clear and that baby is breathing normally at ALL TIMES. Premature infants, infants
with respiratory problems, and infants under 4 months are at greatest risk of suffocation. Ensure
proper placement of baby in product including leg placement. The baby’s position should be checked
regularly to make sure that the baby is comfortable and properly seated in the Carrier, centered with legs
extended and head upright and not slumping downward or to the side. Baby’s arms, legs and feet need
to be observed regularly while in the Carrier to ensure that they are not constricted by the Carrier. The
carrier must be worn in such a way that a baby can move his head without pressing his face onto your
body. When using the hood, please ensure that the hood is NOT completely covering baby’s face and
check on your baby regularly. Be sure that there is enough opening for air to pass through. Ensure that
baby’s ngers are not caught in a buckle opening or gap as this may cause injury to the baby. Always
fasten the buckles properly when the carrier is not in use. Keep the carrier away from children when it is
not in use. The face of the child shall be close to the wearer’s face.
Check to assure all buckles, snaps, straps and adjustments are secure before each use. Regularly
inspect the carrier for any sign of wear and damage. Never use a carrier when damaged in any way.
Check for ripped seams, torn straps or fabrics and damaged fasteners before each use. Regularly check
straps and buckles while in use to make sure they have proper tension and placement.
PRECAUTIONS FOR USE OF TULA HALF BUCKLE CARRIER CONT.
Do not switch between Carrier positions with your baby in the Carrier. Take the baby out of the Carrier
before changing the position of the Carrier. To avoid injury when learning to place the baby in the
Carrier, do so over a bed or other cushioned surface with the assistance of another adult. Whenever
possible, wear and remove the carrier close to a safe receiving surface for baby and in a safe place.
Take particular care when a baby is carried in a back carry position. For smaller babies or for adults
with short torso, wear the carrier waist belt higher on body so baby’s head is positioned close enough
to kiss when using the front carry position. For those with longer torso, we suggest wearing the waist
belt up higher, around the belly button level.
The Carrier should not be used unless and until the wearer understands the instructions and safety
features, and is condent and comfortable with respect to the use of the Carrier. This Carrier is only
intended for use by healthy adults. As a general rule, an individual in good health should be able to
carry 20% of their body weight in a traditional backpack design. The Carrier should not be used by
a person with any health problems that might interfere with the safe use of the product. If the person
using the Carrier should develop shoulder, back, or neck problems, discontinue its use and consult
a qualied medical professional. Discontinue use of the Carrier if the baby shows signs of discomfort
while being carried for a period of time until the baby can be carried without exhibiting discomfort.
Always check for baby’s comfort and temperature changes.
Contact customer service representative for additional assistance if needed.

about baby tula
Founded by two adventurous parents, Ula and Mike, Baby Tula bloomed
organically in Ula’s hometown in Poland. After learning about the many
positive benefits of babywearing, the couple searched for a comfortable,
ergonomic carrier that also spoke to their personal styles and desire for
high quality. However, their search came up short.
With a passion for craftsmanship and design, they consulted with family,
friends, babywearing experts, pattern makers, and chiropractors on their
journey to making the first Baby Tula carrier. It was elegant, easy-to-use,
and most importantly, allowed families to keep their little ones close while
doing what they love.
Today, Baby Tula is an award-winning brand recognized not only for unique
designs, but also for our commitment to promote connection and bonding
worldwide through babywearing education and community.
