Feature focus of Step Caddy child carrier - easy use ergonomics - stirrups to secure the child's feet

Built-In Stirrups

Stirrups are built into the load-bearing waistbelt. These secure the feet, prevent unplanned dismounting due to slips, keep dirty shoes away from parents' clothes, and allow the child to relax because their footing is assured. The stirrups grip the feet during transits and relax and cleverly release the feet when dismounting.

Feature focus of Step Caddy child carrier - easy use ergonomics - the Hip Locks Straps for shape customization

Hip-Lock Straps

Hip-Lock-Straps built into the waistbelt, when pulled, shape the waistbelt to match the curvature of the hips. The belt actually changes shape for comfort and to optimize weight transference to the hips and away from your spine.

Designed for Men and Women

Child carriers are not always comfortable for Mums and Dads. Step Caddy is specifically designed so everyone can share the joy of carrying a 50 lb 5-year-old!

Feature focus of Step Caddy child carrier - easy use ergonomics - magnetic locking buckles

Magnetic Self-Locking Buckles

Step Caddy uses magnetic buckles, so the parent only needs to bring the buckles close to one another for them to attach. The buckles then automatically lock, ensuring the child's safety.

Buckles in Easy Line of Sight

Step Caddy harness attachment position is at chest level, forward of the shoulders so the parent can see buckles with ease without craning their neck (most carriers put the buckles uncomfortably on the shoulders, behind the natural line of sight)

Step Caddy child carrier product feature highlight - showing the strap tunnels that protect the child's hands from the harness straps.

Web Tunnels Hand Protection

Web Tunnels thread the harness straps under the grip handles. This protects the hands of the smaller riders.

Game Changer for Zoo Adventures!

We just spent over 3 hours exploring Happy Hollow—covering nearly 4 miles—and not once did my 3-year-old complain about tired legs. Even better? I wasn’t dealing with sore arms or shoulders from carrying him!

The Step Caddy made the entire outing effortless. Since my son was comfortably at my eye level, he could easily see all the animals without needing to be picked up. I noticed other parents struggling to lift their kids for a better view, while we just cruised by stress-free. I could feel the envy from both kids and grown-ups!

This is hands-down one of the best parenting gear investments I’ve made. Highly recommend for anyone with little explorers!

Super Step Caddy

We’ve been using the Step Caddy for a few months now, and it’s a great addition to our house. We have a 2 and a 4 year old who have both mastered getting in and of the step caddy and really enjoying putting their ‘backpack’ on. Compared to alternative baby slings and other carriers, it made our children feel super lightweight and they loved being so high up. The caddy is comfortable for hikes and walks, adjusts easily for different sized adults and children whilst feeling super sturdy. It features some very cool buckles to attach the shoulder straps which make putting it on a simple task. We’re sure the Step Caddy will be a regular feature in our house for a few years to come!

Perfect child carrier for family adventures

Step Caddy saved the day when our 4 year old got tired on our 2 mile walk. Small and light it was very easy to transport. Simple to setup, Teddy was on my shoulders, enjoying the view, within a couple of minutes. Step Caddy made the walk more enjoyable for Teddy and encourages the kids to get out of the house.

Absolutely Amazing!

I can't say enough good things about this product for parents who love the outdoors. Unlike traditional child carriers, this carrier allows kids to stand while you walk, making hikes and walks so much more fun for them! my daughter loves it.

The design is brilliant—it distributes the weight so well that it feels just like wearing a regular backpack.

If you enjoy hiking or walking with your little one, I highly recommend Step Caddy!

Super useful for hikes with a little toddler

Step Caddy is extremely useful for carrying your kid when he is tired and refuses to walk anymore. It is easy to set up and allows us to do longer hikes without worrying about dragging bulkier carriers.
