We love it when you test our products. That’s when we really find out what you like about our practical everyday helpers and where we can improve. It's important we know if we've really got the best baby bouncer out there and if we can make it even better. So after we tested our Ergobaby bouncer, the Evolve 3-in-1 Bouncer, with 26 families at the beginning of this year of which we received 5 out of 5 stars, we wanted to put it to the test with the professionals. We asked twelve midwives and health experts (from 7 midwifery practices, 1 physiotherapy practice and 1 parent-child competence centre) and their families (more than 100 people in total) what they think of our ergonomic and evolving bouncer.
"Great everyday companion" – the Ergobaby Evolve impresses in the baby bouncer test

How to change a nappy, how to pick a baby up, how to put a baby down - these are things you probably do on autopilot, especially if you’re used to being around babies. But our midwife and babywearing expert Katrin Ritter recommends conscious and mindful movements done in the same way you move your own body. This means that rather than baby being moved by you, you become one and support them in carrying out the most natural movement.
This both strengthens your relationship and promotes the development of your newborn's movement. Your child communicates with you through movement and touch. This is how kinesthetics, the science of movement sensation, sees it. From the very beginning, a baby has a great need for closeness and physical contact. It likes to be touched and it develops its abilities by moving together with you. You are an important interaction partner for your child.

Wow - did you know Ergobaby has been around for 20 years? That's when Karin Frost, a single mum on Maui, Hawaii, designed her first ergonomic baby carrier and set new standards for baby carriers around the world. To celebrate our anniversary this year, we asked you to help design our limited-edition baby carrier to celebrate our 20th Anniversary and the millions of moments parents and babies have spent in our baby carriers.
It was incredibly exciting, we received so many great and creative design entries from all around the world! It was incredibly hard to decide which to turn into a carrier. But, we finally made a decision. So without further ado... tadaaaa.... we are proud to announce the winning design "Starry Galaxy" is now available in our online shop. YAY!

At Ergobaby, we are particularly concerned about protecting our planet for our children’s future. That's why sustainability plays a major role in our corporate philosophy.
Living more sustainably starts with very small adjustments in your daily life. And, because we are parents ourselves and know that there is little time in everyday life with a baby and children to think about sustainability, we have put together our top 10 tips for a more sustainable approach:
1. Shop greener clothes: if you do not choose to buy brand new clothes for your baby, look for textiles with the GOTS label. This is an international label for organic textiles that was founded in 2002 and guarantees that textile production is environmentally and socially responsible. No harmful or

Are you looking for a safe and comfortable place for baby when you’re not using your baby carrier? A baby bouncer can give you the "freedom knowing they are safe and with you" that sometimes you need in everyday life, otherwise how else can you take a shower.
So the question is: Which baby bouncer is recommended? While researching bouncers, you may have noticed that not every baby bouncer is suitable from birth and provides the support a newborn really needs. It is important to look at a bouncer that grows ergonomically with your baby from birth. In concrete terms, this means that it is designed to support your child's development in the best possible way at every stage.

Yes, women are great, but that's not what we celebrate on the 8th of March. So, what is International Women's Day then?
Unfortunately, there are still many areas of life where women struggle for equality - be it salary or discrimination in different professions. Equality is therefore an important topic that discussed during International Women's Day.
As we are also celebrating our 20th Ergobaby anniversary this year, on International Women's Day we would like to celebrate not only all the women in our community, but especially the success of our founder, Karin Frost. Karin is a symbol of what women contribute to our society.
Karin was a single mother with limited financial resources, when she founded a company on Maui (Hawaii) that has since made the lives of countless families

Oh, we are so excited, Ergobaby is celebrating its birthday this year!
20 years ago, single mum Karin Frost designed and sewed a baby carrier in her home in Hawaii so that she could carry her baby close and comfortably to her body.
Who would have thought back then that over 20 years later, she would inspire millions of families worldwide with her idea and support them in their everyday parenting?
Karin Frost certainly didn't. With the birth of her Ergobaby Original baby carrier, she set a movement in motion that she would never have dreamed of.
Babywearing is no longer a niche thanks to Karin Frost. Today, so many mums, dads, grannies, granddads and caregivers are wearing baby carriers and we are extremely proud of
