Reviews

Best carrier I’ve tried!

"I used a different wrap for my first baby that took a lot of work to get baby wrapped how I wanted him. My friend let me try her Tula carrier and I loved it so much I bought my own! It’s so easy to put on. It’s light weight and my baby seems comfortable in it. It’s also cute and stylish."

Great for the diaper bag!

"I initially didn't get this carrier because I had a preemie so I went with a ring sling instead, but I picked it up for a Mother's Day present for myself and am glad I did. I love babywearing but the carriers are so big and bulky that it makes it difficult. This one fits perfectly in a diaper bag and is also very lightweight for the summer."

Brittany I. (5/5)

The straps are a little awkward

"I was so excited for this carrier but I have to have a second person help me in it to get everything adjusted and the straps wrapped up. It’s ok but not my favorite. I was hoping for something by easier to adjust."

Stephanie S. (3/5)

Excellent lightweight structured carrier

"This is a great packable structured carrier. I have SO many carriers but as my baby gets bigger the wrap style and ring slings that tend to be more packable aren’t giving us the support I need. I got this because I’ll be traveling solo with her in a couple of weeks but I’m already using it a lot around town etc. it’s also very comfortable and she falls asleep and stays asleep in it which is another bonus!"

Jeannine C. (5/5)

This is fantastic!

"I have some sensory issues when it comes to wearing stuff, but this is really comfortable! This is the best carrier I've ever tried! It's super soft, feather light and has so much space in the fanny pack!"

Anna (5/5)

So happy with this carrier

"I love this carrier. After using it a few times I packed away my two other options. So lightweight and comfortable. My 3 month old baby falls asleep almost immediately when I put him in it. I can get things done around the house or take my dogs on a walk, it’s perfect. So happy with the sale price too."

Love the mesh

"Love the mesh’s breathability"

Elizabeth H. (5/5)

Awesome Purchase

"Definitely more lighter than the explorer and super nimble to bring around. Folds in nicely to a pouch and super handy."

Stella W. (5/5)

"Feels lightweight and will be great for what i need it for! I was looking for a more travel friendly carrier for airplanes/the big theme park in florida with the mouse. I have a different brand carrier that we normally use, but it has metal on it so you cant babywear through TSA. This is perfect for TSA and to throw into my stroller in case baby wants to nap or is done with being pushed. The price was great too!"

Jamie (5/5)

Better than the original!

"Over 5 kids, I have run 2 Tula exclusive groups and another baby wearing group. I’ve always been a huge fan. I’ve owned over 50 Tula carriers and loved them all. Now, my youngest is twelve and my 2 & 4 year old granddaughters love my classic Glow Nebula. I recently had 2 new grandsons and decided to try the Tula light with them and I am pleasantly surprised to say this was a new favorite! The way it folds into a convenient waist bag- brilliant!!! It’s lightweight and super affordable- which means I’ll be buying a few more lol"
