Abstract

A baby carrier having a pad of the present invention comprises a carrier body 10 including at least a back rest 11 and capable of accommodating and holding a baby in both a face-to-face holding manner in which the baby is held such that the back rest 11 is brought into contact with a back of the baby and a forward-facing holding manner in which the baby is held such that the back rest 11 is brought into contact with chest and abdomen of the baby; and shoulder belts 30 and 30 mounted to the carrier body 10 and carried on left and right shoulders; wherein the baby carrier further comprises a pad 40, which can cover the back rest 11, mounted detachably in the carrier body 10, formed wider than a portion which corresponds to a crotch rest portion of the back rest 11 of the carrier body 10 when the carrier body is used in the forward-facing holding. With this structure, it is possible to safely and comfortably hold the baby in any of the face-to-face and forward-facing directions, and to carry the baby laterally and piggyback.
