I have used this thing every single day since it came in, multiple times a day. There have been days where every one of my daughter’s naps are in it. Comfy right out of the box, AMAZING back support, quick to get on compared to a wrap, and very cute! I’ve gotten a ton of compliments on it. Recommending it to every one of my mom friends!

I’ve used a lot of carriers between my two babies and this one is in my top 2 (which says a lot)
Not only is it so comfortable, it is beautiful, easy to put on, and so much softer than I was expecting!

Love my Aerial Carrier so much that I’ve bought it in multiple colors! So comfortable that I’m still using it with my daughter at 14 months (and pregnant with my second).

The print & material are beautiful! I am obsessed with this carrier! It is so comfortable, I love wearing it out every chance I get.

We absolutely love the Wildbird Aerial carrier. This has been such a game changer in terms of mobility with an infant and has truly allowed me to be handsfree at home as well as on long 1-2 hour walks with both baby and dog. My baby loves being in this carrier and looks out at the world and naps - also doesn’t overheat on warmer days. I don’t find the hip loop too cumbersome in terms of getting the carrier on and off even when I’m doing it alone/independently. The quality of the fabric is also exceptional (we have sparrow and it still looks brand new). I’d absolutely choose this carrier again!

Super supportive and beautiful carrier! 100% worth the investment- my back is so much better after using this! I’ve tried a lot- cloth wraps, ones that are in between soft and structured - and this is definitely a favorite. After a while those newborns start to get heavy and the soft wraps just don’t support my back well. This one is great! You can even loosen it up and nurse baby in it.
Fabric is gorgeous however mine had a couple little frays which is a little disappointing due to the expense.

We’ve always been wrap fans but I wanted something that wasn’t so complicated when we went out. And let me tell you this is the carrier of all carriers. She loves it I love it. Only thing is we are still trying to learn to adjust to the difference so we always spit up in it if we have ate before going in it due to pushing on her belly. But that’s not taking away from my rating since that’s an us thing and not a carrier thing. 10/10 recommend.

This review is longer than I intended, BUT I’ve had over a year with the aerial, so hopefully this is helpful!
🤗 My baby is now 14 months old and we have spent hours and hours and hours together with this carrier. 🥰 With an older one running around, the aerial made it easy to keep my little one close, help him nap, and more. We have taken it on countless walks, we’ve traveled with it, we’ve hiked with it, we’ve breastfed on the go. I almost bought a second because we were using it so much (and my baby LOVED sucking on the straps…so I had to wash it a lot—it holds up so well!). It was great for naps on the go…although the flap for naps/privacy does nothing to help with head support once it’s not in the newborn/early baby mode of being tucked into the carrier. My baby’s head would kind of flop sometimes while he was asleep (he was fine) and I would tuck him back onto my chest. Now he is older and I’m using a ring sling more because he isn’t being carried for hours at a time/he always wants to see what’s I’m doing, so being on my hip makes that easier.
⭐️ The only reason why I’m taking off a star is because I really dislike back carrying with this. The wide, cushiony straps are amazing when front carrying, but they were uncomfortable to me in the back carry position. I have broad shoulders and yet, it was too bulky. I also don’t love how tricky it is to put baby on safely on the back. And, given the orientation of the buckles, you tighten them in a weird way to get baby…
