Definition: Babies who want to see everything will love the kangaroo carry, where baby's back is against the parent's chest. This babywearing hold is often used with slings or pouches, so that the baby can sit in a pouch of fabric. Baby's legs are usually folded inside the carrier. The kangaroo carry is appropriate from the time that baby can hold his or her head up.
Also Known As: Buddha carry
