Abstract
A carrier is provided for carrying an infant, a baby, or a small animal. The carrier includes a pouch that is formed from a main bottom panel and side panels attached to the main bottom panel in which the infant, the baby, or the small animal may sit. The side panels form a resting notch which may be v-shaped at a top edge of at least one of the side panels. Two or more straps are attached to opposite side panels of the pouch and are formed to extend over a wearer's shoulders. The carrier further includes a sleeve disposed underneath the pouch and attached to the pouch. The sleeve allows the wearer's hand or arm to extend therethrough. When the wearer uses the sleeve, the wearer may provide added comfort and support to the infant, baby, or small animal being carried.
