Baby Gear. It’s perhaps what many new parents dwell on the most when thinking about registries and purchases. We get it. It’s a huge investment and you’ve got baby’s comfort in mind.
Baby carriers are the chocolate bars of the candy world. They come in large varieties, pretty packaging, and so many different textures. But no matter which one you choose – it’ll be good for the soul. So now along with a baby carrier or baby sling, may we suggest adding some sugary goodness to your wish list. You’re welcome.
Many parents have been wearing their babies for centuries all across the globe. So it’s no surprise that we’re seeing more and more celebrities utilize one of the most useful and beneficial baby gear products. And if you’re on the hunt for stylish and trendy carriers, you’re in luck. We’ve spotted 15 celebrities who have recently worn one! From ring slings to backpack-style carriers, get ready for some serious inspiration from famous baby-wearing parents.
Andy Cohen sporting a BabyBjorn Mini
Late-night talk show host, Andy Cohen, is living his best dad life and we are here for it. Andy’s wearing a grey BabyBjorn mini carrier to carry his newborn while flying high and fancy in a private jet. And it’s not the only time he’s sported it. He’s definitely a fan of babywearing! Cohen posted another picture using his BabyBjorn while walking his dog and announced himself as “officially that guy.” This new father is “digging the dad gear.” We are too Andy. We are too.
Amy Schumer’s son in an ErgoBaby
There’s no surprise that we couldn’t get far on our list without seeing an ErgoBaby (one of the best carriers). Actress and comedian, Amy Schumer, shares a picture of her on a walk while wearing her four-week-old baby boy – who she had with husband and Chef, Chris Fischer – in an ErgoBaby Omni Cool Air Mesh Carrier. Bonus points for Amy: her baby’s legs and hip are in an ideal ‘M’ position.
Eva Longoria
Okay, there’s a reason why people say baby wearing wraps are covered with sleepy dust. Here’s proof: Eva Longoria’s son is sleeping so blissfully wrapped around his mama. May we all have naps so tranquil in our near future. The “Desperate Housewives” actress snaps a selfie while babywearing on an Australia-bound flight for her most recent project: “Dora and the Lost City of Gold.” Fans are applauding the raw and real beauty Longoria displayed in this picture and we are right there with them.
Dwayne Wade’s daughter in a BabyBjorn
There’s something extra special about an NBA all-star player hanging out with his bros while… yup, that’s right – babywearing. Actress Gabrielle Union shared a picture of her husband, Dwyane Wade, using the baby Bjorn carrier to keep his hands-free while having their daughter, Kaavia, safe and close. She’s even sporting a burp cloth with not only her initials on it, but the Miami Heat logo as well. We’d say she’s got some pretty cool parents.
Brooklyn Decker wearing an Ergobaby
Ergobaby strikes again (well, it’s one of the best!). Model and actress Brooklyn Decker poses in front of an elevator mirror while carrying her daughter in an Ergobaby carrier. Decker keeps the lives of her two young children private and off of social media. Even then, she shares this picture of her rocking the carrier without sacrificing privacy.
Jana Kramer wearing an ErgoBaby
We love a healthy, well-supported position when it comes to babywearing and Jana Kramer does an excellent job in carrying her baby while supporting his hips and legs. It’s no surprise that she owns an Ergobaby. There is a definite trend here amongst celebrities. They know what’s good in the carrier world.
Jillian Harris wearing a BabyBjorn
Jillian Harris has an incredibly attractive Instagram feed – so a post of her wearing her baby girl fits right in. This Canadian TV personality and Interior Designer sports her BabyBjorn carrier while vacationing at a Ski Resort in Kelowna with her family. From matching winter hats to the most adventurous kids, Jillian is giving us some definite family goals.
Heidi Montag’s son in an Osprey Packs Carrier
Are we the only ones who are having some major “The Hills” throwbacks with this picture? Reality TV star couple Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt gave birth to a baby boy in 2017. In this picture, Heidi is wearing an Osprey Packs child carrier – which is advertised and marketed as a walking/hiking carrier. She’s making it look easy wearing this ‘bigger-than-normal’ carrier, and for her sake, we hope it truly is a breeze.
Tanner Tolbert wearing an ErgoBaby
Bachelor Alumni Tanner Tolbert and Jade Roper snap a picture on a breathtaking beach in Italy while dad is carrying baby Emerson on his back in what looks like…you guessed it – an Ergobaby. Perhaps what people love most about this particular carrier is that it can be worn in a number of different positions and the Tolbert family has utilized this awesome feature. Although we’d like to see the baby sitting just a few inches higher, we are loving the dads that are embracing babywearing.
Catherine Lowe wearing an ErgoBaby
Another familiar bachelor face and another Ergobaby. Bachelor Sean Lowe proposed to Catherine Giudici on the season finale of “The Bachelor” (season 17). And here we are, 6 years later, with Catherine wearing baby #2 in a grey Ergobaby with cool air mesh panels.
Kate Hudson’s daughter in a Colugo Carrier
Superstar Kate Hudson has been an avid babywearer since her first born. Now with baby #3, she still embraces the carrying life. Here she shares a picture of her carrying her daughter, Rani, in a floral Colugo carrier.
Troian Bellisario wearing the ErgoBaby
Pretty Little Liars star Troian Bellisario and husband Patrick Adams from Suits had a baby back in October of last year. Adams shares a picture of his wife carrying their daughter in a forward facing Ergobaby. Everything about this family screams adorbs – is anyone still saying that? From how their relationship began to their natural parenting lifestyle, we’re huge fans of this babywearing couple.
Carlos and Alexa PenaVega’s son in a Mission Critical Carrier
Here’s a carrier that we haven’t seen on our list yet and one that most people might not be so familiar with. Child stars (now married) Carlos and Alexa PenaVega enjoy a day of adventure outdoors while dad wears their youngest son in a Mission Critical Carrier. This carrier is specifically designed and built for dads and we are totally digging it!
Nicole Phelps
Nicole Phelps is wearing her baby like the dozens of Olympic medals husband Michael Phelps has won. She, very gracefully, carries their second child in a ring sling while getting a picture taken with family, last year on Father’s Day.
Daniel Craig in a Lillebaby
Last, but certainly not least, we’ve got Daniel Craig. Yes, even James Bond has been seen babywearing and we are loving it. He’s spotted wearing the same make and model carrier as Kevin Hart was seen in – a starry Lillebaby carrier. Journalist Piers Morgan took to social media to announce how Craig wearing a carrier was emasculating to his personality. But honestly Piers, we couldn’t disagree more. Seeing a masculine celebrity wearing his baby is a breath of fresh air – and if anything, adds on to their masculinity.
