3. Operating Instructions: Carry Positions

The Mabē Monarch offers three primary ergonomic carry positions. Always ensure your child is securely positioned and able to breathe freely.

3.1. Front Facing In (Newborn to Toddler, 7-35 lbs)

This position is suitable from birth (7 lbs) and is ideal for bonding and supporting your child's head and neck.

1. With the waistband fastened, hold your child against your chest.
2. Bring the carrier panel up over your child's back, ensuring their bottom is deep in the seat.
3. Bring one shoulder strap over your shoulder, reach behind your back, and clip it to the opposite side of the carrier. Repeat for the other strap, creating an 'X' across your back.
4. Adjust straps until snug, ensuring your child's head is close enough to kiss and their airway is clear.
