Product Care
Our wetsuit infant carriers are made of neoprene rubber with a knitted nylon lamination. It’s the same material that virtually all wetsuits are made out of. It’s an awesome, thermal and stretchy fabric, but not indestructible. Normal care must be taken to prevent snagging, abrasion, cuts and colour fading.

- Rinse carrier after each use and wash regularly by hand or on delicate machine cycle at 40ºc in mesh bag with mild detergent, followed by fresh cold water
- Hang out to dry in the shade
- Do not tumble dry
- Do not iron
- Do not dry clean
- Once carrier has been washed, rinsed and is completely dry, store carrier in mesh travel bag

TICKS Rules for Safe Babywearing (ACCC Product Safety Australia)
- Tight: Carrier should be tight enough to hug your baby close to you.
- In view at all times: Baby's nose and mouth should be in view at all times.
- Close enough to kiss: By tipping your head forward you should be able to kiss your baby on the head.
- Keep chin off the chest: A baby should never be curled so that their chin is forced onto their chest as this can restrict their breathing.
- Supported back: The baby’s back should be supported in a natural position so their tummy and chest are against you.

I still have not received it and I haven’t received shipping update for a week now. I am very disappointed that I haven’t gotten it yet.
We’re beach and outdoor people, and love that we have a baby carrier to match our lifestyle. At 4 months old, our baby loves it. I even use it at home to carry him around whilst I do housework.
My only wish was that we could use it facing both me and then facing out.
Instagram seemed to know that I was about to go on holiday so this popped up on my feed and I decided to get it. Well worth it! Was really handy (or should I say less handy/hands-free!) with my 9-month-old and 2-year-old for water-related activities.
This carrier does exactly as it claims, it's easy, functional and useful. It's made going to the beach so much more simple.
We bought this for my 3 month old for Christmas - you’re welcome darling 😉 - and as a family who LOVE spending time in the ocean, the pool, camping & fishing - and also have a 3 year old water bug, it was a no brained purchase! It’s been used almost every day since we got it & has even replaced our other baby carriers due to the sheer ease and comfort of this carrier! Bushwalks, shops, just daily around the house. You won’t regret this purchase!!

Let customers speak for us
I cannot recommend this carrier more. I was originally looking at Frog Orange carriers so that I could tackle swimming with two kids solo but, I have to admit it’s become so much more than a water carrier for me and has blown me away. I use it almost daily for shopping trips and around the house as it is supportive and so quick and easy to put on. My son loves it which is always a winner! 10/10 I’m obsessed
Having two children who love the water and a new baby this carrier is a game changer. Super comfy and easy to use and kept the baby super calm and content while I had free hands to help my preschooler in the pool.
Also was great at the beach the sand comes right off and kept the baby warm from the ocean breeze.
As a mum whose baby lives in a carrier this lives up to the best. Also customer service was absolutely amazing when I needed to get the carrier by a quick deadline.
What a genius carrier. I'm soon to be a mum of two boys under one and my eldest just started visiting the pool. There was no way I could manage them both alone there - and now I can. I love how functional all the buckles are and that baby is kept toasty in the wetsuit material. We've used it already with the older boy just to pop to the shops and it's easy and cute to use. Thanks Frog Orange!
I purchased my navy frog orange carrier second hand because I simply couldn’t afford a brand new one. I was absolutely blown away with the quality, not to mention the comfort and compliments that also came along with wearing my baby.
We traveled from Syd, Mel, SA, Uluru into the NT and then to QLD and back home to Syd there wasn’t a waterhole pool or beach I wasn’t wearing my frog orange carrier.
Quick drying meant it was ready within an hr of a prior swim to wear shopping or to do groceries!
Have recommend and will continue to recommend.
The only downfall is as the little babes grow you can’t turn them around to face forward!
I had been eyeing off one of these carriers for a few months and finally bought one. My only regret is not doing it sooner. Honestly the most comfortable carrier I own. I love that I can literally use it EVERWHERE!
