My girl and I love our Aerial in Sparrow! The waistband is the most comfortable of the SSCs I’ve tried, and I love how easy the cross back style is to put on. I also love how the fabric, straps, and buckles match. The only thing I would change would be the straps— I wish they didn’t narrow quite so much at the base, as I wonder if they’ll wear faster than if they were wider, and it makes an awkward fit for suck pads.
Overall, I see myself reaching for this carrier often — highly recommend!
Alaina T.
We love the aerial carrier! Decided to return our unworn ring sling & use the credit for another aerial! Glad we had the redo return.
Cristina L.
The best carrier there is on the market! Best bang for your buck, so beautiful and well made.
Diana C.
This is our favorite, most-used baby carrier! It’s super simple to put on, the color is great, and the overall construction is sleek but sturdy.
Ali L.
We love our wild bird carrier! It’s super light, it’s comfortable even in 80 degree weather. We can’t wait to use it on our first trip to Disney when our LO will be 5 months old.
Brooke K.
Love Wildbird!
Kelli L.
10/10! Love this carrier, comfortable for long wear with baby and she enjoys it. I’m able to get things done around the house and she falls right to sleep. She loves naps in her carrier! A life saver!
I need every color now.
Mckenzie R.
Tried three other carriers before finding this one. Absolutely love it and so does my little girl!
Elizabeth R.
Works for my newborn! She recently hit 7 lbs and I was excited to try out the carrier. I liked how the seat adjusted to fit her tinyness. We went for a long walk at an arboretum and the carrier held her securely and shielded her from the sun. Looking forward to continued use as she gets older.
Carol A.
Looking forward to more purchases in this line! Such great quality!
Rachel R.
I got this carrier as a baby gift for a friend and she is loving it! Said her baby usually falls asleep shortly after she has her in it!
Alaina T.
We love this carrier! Simple enough, comfortable, love the back support, and that it’s machine washable. My girl falls asleep pretty quickly in it so I’m actually able to get a few things done (like eat a meal lol)
Asante C.
I’ve only had this for a few days and it is already a super important item I need to get through the day. Me and my husband wear it. My baby is 6 weeks old, 12lbs, loves it. Is very comfortable and always falls asleep in it. This allows me to be way more mobile. I love baby wraps but the carrier is definitely the way to go, especially since it useable for a long period of time!! I will be telling all my pregnant friends to get one.
Claudia D.
I love this carrier. I bought the ring sling as well and I've been gravitating towards the aerial. It feels so secure and my baby is so comfortable in it. The material is very lightweight and does not make me feel hot at all. For reference, I live in S. Florida.
Hannah M.
The easiest and most comfortable carrier I’ve bought! Highly recommend!
Kelly V.
Truly the best carrier! I was so intimidated having two under two and this carrier has made my life so much easier. I have tried several other carriers but haven’t felt comfortable in any of them. So so happy I took a chance and bought this, it has now become my number one recommendation for my mom friends!
Kristen R.
This baby carrier is so cute and literally the comfiest one I’ve tried! I wore my baby around for hours and had no back pain at all, which has not been my experience with other carriers. Also, I wore him around in 100 degree weather and we both were comfortable in the linen fabric. I am looking forward to getting another aerial carrier in a different print.
Nancy S.
My husband and I love it!
Gabrielle N.
Truly the best carrier I own. Easy to use & so comfy!
Kennadee L.
I absolutely fell in love with this baby carrier. It’s SIMPLE and minimalist style had me right away. Honestly it’s extremely comfortable. I have scoliosis in my lower back and I can honestly say back feels best with this carrier. Wish I would’ve had this for my first baby!
Although it is pricey, I definitely think it’s worth every penny! Having to still pay shipping was a let down though. I think free shipping over $150 is understandable.
Liz P.
Love this carrier!!! I truly cannot say enough positives about it. For someone that has tried many carriers, ring slings, wraps, etc., this by far out does them all! The price is great for the high quality that it is, and it’s super easy to get on and adjust. I have my 9 pound baby in it in this picture. I adjusted it so I could put her up a little higher and it works wonderful! I have found my #1 carrier! Great job Wildbird!!
Sam Christmas W.
Great quality! Beautiful color! Stylish and extremely supportive for both baby and I.
Angelica C.
Love. Baby girl always falls asleep in it
Madison B.
I asked for recommendations in a mom Facebook group for a good baby carrier and Wildbird came up a few times. I placed a pre-order for the Aeriel carrier on a whim and I’m so glad I did. Not only is the carrier super comfortable and easy to put on it’s also very aesthetically pleasing. I’ve been using the carrier since 3 weeks post-c-section and it’s been a life saver! I highly recommend if you’re looking for a structured carrier.
Taylor K.
Beautiful color and very soft! Easiest carrier I have used.
Hannah S.
Such a pretty carrier and very comfortable for me to carry my one month old all day. She loves it! The wrap around waist band it a little bit difficult to use but overall I love it! Also, I was. Little concerned about the light color linen getting dirty, but it has spot cleaned very nicely so far.
Elizabeth T.
I love this carrier so much! I couldn’t be happier with this purchase. It’s everything I’d been looking for. It was so hard to find a carrier that wasn’t an obnoxious print or awful color combinations. I was so excited to come across this brand and see such great reviews. This carrier is stylish, supportive, and so comfortable. I tend to get neck/upper back pain from anything on my shoulders (even razorback sports bras). I can wear this carrier for hours comfortably with no neck or back pain which is huge for me. My baby loves it too, she falls asleep so easily in this. Thank you Wildbird for making a beautiful carrier for us neutral color loving mamas.
Yuko I.
I'm petite so I was looking for a baby carrier something not too bulky and it is perfect even for my small body!
I ordered Xs-Xl size.
And I was kinda worried if my husband can't wear this but it fit him too!
Our baby isn't arrived yet so the pic is when my kitty volunteered for us fitting this baby carrier
Anda M.
I really really really love it! I’m so grateful! I’ve tried so many different wraps and carriers, this is my 3rd baby, and this is by far my favorite! I love the material, the design is beautiful and simple, the color… I would love to see it in that flower design again! It’s gorgeous and comfy and has the perfect head support and it’s easy to just throw on! Suuuuuper grateful! ♥️
Alicia K.
Beautiful, comfortable and easy to use. My favorite carrier!
Hannah O.
We LOOOOVED the Wildbird Aerial carrier! I’ve tried 2 others before this and my son was never comfortable until we got our Aerial carrier. He loved it right away. It’s comfortable for him and me, simple to put on, the fabric is so soft and light weight.
Grace S.
I love this carrier! Easy to put on by myself, and so comfortable with the extra padding at the waistband and straps. Baby loves it and isn't wiggly/uncomfortable in it like he has been in others.
Maggie F.
I have searched high and low for a structured carrier that wasn't a headache to put on, fit a plus size body, and was comfortable. The moment I saw the aerial I knew I would love it, which was confirmed the first time I actually got to put it to use. Worth every penny and can't wait to use this for as long as possible!
Katherine S.
I love this new carrier - the reason why I purchased this one is because my other carrier is a little too bulky for me and it bothers me. After a week of using my new Aerial carrier I found that I enjoy baby wearing much more and don’t hesitate to put it on. I love the way the seat adjusts, it is super fast to do as baby grows. I also love how the straps have pockets to go into so there aren’t straps dangling everywhere. It took a few times to get used to the cross back style, my shoulder were sore the first day or two. But now it feels very comfortable to wear. I like that there aren’t pockets because that adds bulk. The fabric is very soft l, flexible, yet sturdy. This is a definite win for me and I am glad that I dove in and purchased this product.
Olivia R.
Such a comfy carrier for both me and my little babe! Love it!
Rachel J.
It’s a beautiful carrier. I love the color. It’s a great front carrier. It’s very comfortable but for me in back carry mode was not comfortable and it’s a long process to switch it to back carry.
Erika S.
My breastfed baby loves to be held close to me, soothes her and this carrier causes me no back pain! Once you get the hang of it, it takes seconds to put on! Even has a note saying which side goes up! I would love to get more colors! I use the same one for my newborn that I use for my toddler! One is 7lbs the other is 20lbs! This would be a great gift for any mama who is curious about baby wearing! The design is perfect for hip safety. 1000/10
Monica P.
Great design, even my husband loves wearing it!
Nicole M.
Love love love my aerial carrier. I needed something comfortable to carry baby in while I also chased after my 3 year old and this is perfect!!
Thian k.
i really like sling carrier
i have one and i really love it
i like pre order arial carrier as well.
Hannah G.
This is hands down the best carrier I have ever used. There's a special place in my heart for ring slings and wraps, but the Aerial Carrier is the most cozy, convenient, and easy to use carrier, not to mention it's the cutest thing ever. Not only is it my favorite, but it is definitely my baby's favorite carrier as well. He gets excited whenever it's time to put him in there. He loves taking in all the views from the carrier, as well as taking naps in there. I never leave the house without this carrier. I can't recommend it enough to everyone I know.
Hannah B.
Love the padding all over the shoulders and the feel of the linen and obviously the color. Figuring out back carry was a little complicated for me at first, but you get the hang of it! I’m just in awe of Taylor and her team and the love and care that goes into each product they come out with
Michelle B.
The wildbird carrier is so easy to put on. I have tried Aerial, Artipoppe, Sakura Bloom, ring slings, Solly Baby Wrap and Ergobaby. Wilbird Aerial is my favorite so far! It’s lighter than Artipoppe in my opinion. It’s easier to put on and more supportive than SB, and will last me longer than the Ergobaby Embrace I used for my newborn. I use Solly Baby for newborns and the Aerial for babies who are not able to keep their legs out. Very happy with it!
Courtney P.
I’m so so glad I invested in this carrier!! I had my first baby in November and I was a little intimidated to baby wear at first. This carrier made it so much easier. Each time I put it on it got easier and quicker. Now it feels so natural! I’m obsessed with the fabric and how secure the carrier feels. One thing I also love is that the plastic pieces/buckles match the actual fabric. This is definitely a quality carrier that I will use for years and hand down to a friend someday!
Alyssa R.
Our favorite carrier yet! So light, and comfy to wear. Thankful for this carrier everyday!
Chelsy B.
As if I couldn’t love Wildbird more. This structured carrier is where aesthetic meets function meets affordability - finally!! I loooove to wear my baby in a sling but for travel and cold weather I thought a structured carrier would be best. SO grateful these were released right as I started looking. The subtle adjustments for leg width have been a game changer for my baby’s comfort. I love that I can roll up the loose ends on the straps for a cleaner look and less chaos. My shoulders and back are comfortable. The head adjustment let’s us go from awake and active in the carrier to sleepy and supported. Even my dog gets excited when she sees me pull this carrier off the hook because it means a fun, long adventure is coming☺️ Thank you thank you for this perfect, gorgeous, cozy carrier!
Ryley P.
Best carrier of all! I’ve used 3 other brands and sold all of them because I love WildBird so much, functional and easy! I have the sling which I ador but the aerial for everyday is just the best out there! ️
Allison
This carrier is the best and worth every penny! It’s is comfortable, beautiful, and easy to put on, so everything you’d want in a carrier! My little one loves to slobber on the corner but thanks to the linen material, it always dries super quickly. I’ve also washed it a couple times in the machine and it’s come out looking just like new! I want one in every color.
Alexandra H.
I really hated carriers because of how bulky and hard they were to put on. As a stay at home mom with another kid, I needed something easy and sleek but also, affordable and not hundreds of dollars. This is the best carrier I’ve ever had! It take and like 30 seconds to get her in and ready to go, it’s perfect for grocery store trips, walks, around the house.
I have the willow and I love the color. My husband and I use the same as the size ranges perfectly and it’s been such a godsend!
Elise Z.
I absolutely love the aerial carrier! Not only is it gorgeous (bought it in Bloom), but it has been perfect for back carrying my daughter while pregnant and I cannot wait to use it for front carry with our second baby that is due at the end of March! Until this carrier was released, there was nothing available on the market that fit me comfortably since I am small framed. I recommend this carrier 100%!
Emily P.
We absolutely love this carrier! Baby fell asleep in it the first time we used it and many times after that. She’ll be 4 months old tomorrow and she’s already close to 20lbs so I needed something to give my arms and back a break and this is just what I was looking for! It’s so comfortable and supportive. It’s also so easy to use and I can put it on and take it off very quickly. We’ll definitely be using it for many years to come and with future babies.
Daisy C.
I have an obsession with carriers and this is one of my favorites. First the look so so sleek, it doesn’t add bulk. The color is beautiful (I want them all) I use this carrier for my longer walks as its comfortable and breathable. My baby Loves it too. I prefer the X is the back and this carrier does have it. It’s so nice that the buckles match the carrier as well.
courtney a.
works perfectly and it absolutely cute and comfortable! i’m using it for as long as she’ll fit in it.
Margaret H.
This carrier has made my experience as a first time mom absolutely dreamy. After my emergency c section the only form of exercise allowed for weeks was walking. In Lou of using my stroller I noticed my baby loved napping in my carrier. I wear this thing for MILES at a time and never feel any discomfort. I’m talking like 7-10 miles a day and no back pain I LOVE THIS THING!
Cat T.
I love this carrier! So supportive and comfortable, easy to put on and baby loves it. And bonus it’s super cute!! I recommend it to all new moms!
Amy D.
Obsessed! I’ve tried tons of carriers and haven’t found anything both baby and I love until this! It’s so lightweight and breathable, and very comfy to wear! Hoping for some more colors/patterns so I can order a second one!
Christelle T.
This carrier saved my sanity in my darkest PPD days. It is SO COMFORTABLE. you barely feel like you’re carrying anythinng AND it’s absolutely beautiful!! I get so many compliments on it all the time. And it’s so easy to strap on, 3 buckles and you’re done. It’s so lightweight yet incredibly strong, I teach baby-wearing dance in it!! I want one in every colour of the rainbow even my husband loves to wear it because it’s so easy.
I only recommend Wildbird carriers to any parent I meet. I could go on forever. Consider me hooked!!
Kasie M.
Honest review! I really do like it - there are 2 things that are not great but manageable.
First, the straps are hard to keep from riding up into my neck. Every time I lean over or move my arms around the straps go up onto my neck. I feel like I’m constantly reaching behind to pull the straps down to comfortably sit on my shoulders. Curious if there is a way to fix that?
Second, it’s not easily stored…I don’t know where to put it when I’m not wearing it. It doesn’t really hang on anything well without being too bulky or super long because of the straps. Curious if there is a better way to buckle it together to be smaller for hanging?
Overall it’s super comfy, my back doesn’t hurt like it does with other carriers and it’s beautiful! Literally goes with anything I wear. My baby feels very snug and secure the entire time I wear him. The carrier stays where you put it on…like it doesn’t slip down which is awesome. The 2 biggest wins for me is how comfortable it is to wear for long periods of time and how my baby falls asleep almost immediately every time I put him in - and stays asleep!!
Anyways, I really like it, I would definitely buy it again!
Rachel Y.
The carrier is so comfortable and keeps baby close but let’s me be hands free. And the color are quality are beautiful!
Christa M.
I have tried more carriers over the past two children than I like to admit. The Aerial carrier has stopped my quest for a comfortable and beautiful option! I use it constantly with my third little one.
Grace B.
Truly my favorite carrier. I keep this one with me at all times. I can put it on very easily by myself and adjust as needed. Watch their tricks on getting the straps nice and low on your shoulders and you’ll be GOLDEN—so comfortable! My only desire is another one.
Brittany S.
Love my aerial carrier! I wanted a good carrier for baby number 3, not only is it super comfortable but it's beautiful to wear.
Sarah S.
I love this carrier so much! I bought it for my second child and I use it daily. It’s so intuitive to put on and fits so ergonomically, much better than my old soft structured carrier. I primarily use it for my infant and regularly use it on long walks around town, wearing him in it with no discomfort. I use it for contact naps daily and even my 40lb toddler loves sitting in it. Bonus: my husband who couldn’t find a carrier he loved with our first loves this one too!
Meg m.
Love my WildBird aerial carrier. The back support is everything. Baby is comfy. Color is cute. Straps are not annoying. I love that you can use it front or back.
Katie G.
I absolutely LOVE our Aerial carrier! At first I wasn't too sure about the crossed straps. I have a small frame and I was worried it would be too bulky. But every time I wear my daughter, the carrier gets softer and more comfortable. It only takes maybe 30 seconds to get my daughter situated and tightened and loosening the straps for breastfeeding is so easy! The fold up head support is great for naps on the go too. The Aerial is a solid, sturdy carrier and I'm looking forward to using it until my daughter outgrows it!
Casey A.
Absolutely love the freedom the Aerial gives me! So easy to strap my littlest in, without any help needed. She loves being close to her mommy and it allows me to have two hands to help my oldest. It’s a gorgeous print/fabric also.
Nicole C.
Truly the most amazing carrier, and trust me when I say I’ve tried them all! So comfortable, inclusive sizes, and works so well for a wide range of ages for your babies. So grateful I purchased this carrier because it’s the only way I get 2-3 hours worth of work done around the house a day! Another plus is it comes with sleepy dust—baby falls asleep every time!
Tiana W.
HOW CUTE! Great back support, baby sleeps perfectly cuddled up in this carrier. I’m obsessed :) thank you for the arm save.
Sierra B.
I love this carrier! It is so comfy and helped me be present with my toddler and still have my newborn close to me!
Mackenzie B.
I cannot thank Wildbird enough for creating this spectacular carrier. As a first time mama who is also a stay-at-home mama, this carrier is a beautiful way to babywear around the house and allow my little one and I to bond even more. This carrier has also made venturing out of the house a breeze. OH, and it fits dad too! It is the perfect blend of structure, comfort, and style. Easy to take on and off, I tried at least 5 different carriers and wraps before I finally bought our beloved Owl Carrier and I have never looked back! We have been babywearing with this since our little one was 2.5 months old and I will be so sad when we outgrow it. Thank you Wildbird for giving our family this wonderful opportunity to truly cherish this time as first-time parents and bond with our little one.
Monica P.
Color, ease of use and comfort are all 5/5
Pamela S.
I’ve been using this carrier since she was about a month old, she’s 5 months now.
It fits me comfortably and baby girl smiles when she’s in it.
Haylee L.
love how light and comfortable this carrier is!
Casey A.
10 stars!!! Tried multiple buckle carriers before the aerial and it is by far the most comfortable! The design is incredibly beautiful and functional. Very easy to put on as well! All members of our family love it!!
Whitney M.
We love our carrier! Super comfy, cute and dad loves to wear it too!
Elizabeth M.
This is by far the most amazing carrier out there. It’s beautiful, fits perfectly, and distributes weight better than any other carrier I’ve ever used. It’s extremely easy to use/put on/fold up. I have used mine daily since my daughter was three months old. She loves it as much as me. ♥️
