"I just wanted to write and let you know how much I love my WRF Hip Baby carrier. It was a gift from my Mom just before my husband and I left for China to adopt our daughter. This carrier was a lifesaver and we were the envy of many of our travel companions. Our daughter wanted to be held constantly so she would spend much of her time in the carrier while we were in China. We have been home four months now and I still use it almost everyday. I have carried her in it while shopping, vacuuming, and even washing the car. I get stopped everywhere and asked about my WRF carrier and I always give it rave reviews. Thank you so much for such a wonderful, well made product. I couldn't be happier with it." Robin M.
"We used Hip Baby Asia for our adoption of Grace in November and it was wonderful. So easy to use and as most of our angels were sweating profusely, the wicking material worked wonders to keep Grace comfortable. All the parents on our trip were struggling with front carriers and lower quality hip carriers and by the end of our trip all of them said they wold be buying a Hip Baby when they returned home. Thanks for making such a great product" Steve and Pam M.
"I purchased the Hip Baby Carrier before we left for China to get our daughter. I didn't use the Carrier much in China because Anna was in her stroller. However, I have used it constantly since. We fly a lot and I would not be able to get on a plane without it. I have waited in line at our Social Security Office with her in the carrier for nearly four hours. We live near the theme parks and I use it all of the time to wait in lines and see the shows. Anna is now almost 2 1/2 and she gets really excited when she sees her carrier. She will fall asleep in her carrier but not her stroller. I hiked the Rocky Mountains with her, walked all over Sydney Australia and Chicago and visited Niagara Falls with Anna in her Hip Baby carrier. It washes up nicely too! I will be so sad when she can no longer fit. Thanks and please know that I am a faithful, walking advertisement where ever I go! I have recommended it to many, not just adoptive moms." Alison D.
"I have to write to say thank you for making a carrier that fits a plus size woman. We took it with us to Russia and used it for a long time once home. it is already in my suit case while I wait for the referral for a second child from Russia. So many others would never have fit me as comfortably as the Walking Rock Farm Carrier! It was a life saver in the airport and airplane and so many other places" Laura D.
"I just wanted to take the time to thank you for such a a well made product. It has been almost a year now and it is still the most important thing to make sure it is in the car when we go out. My daughter is 19 months and almost 26lbs and this carrier still makes carrying her easy. Thanks again" Sue M.
"Just had to tell you that I love your Hip baby carrier I have suggested it to so many people that they get this one over other ones. on all of the China adoption lists I am on!. Just today, I am sitting here writing to three different people and telling them how much I love using it when in China last year at this time. I can't imagine having gone to with our hip carrier! Someone offered me a famous maker front carrier and YUCK! I had the worst neck and shoulder pain and even got a headache. After wearing it one day I was ready to throw it away. You guys are much loved here in San AntonioTexas! A plus-sized fan," Pam K.
"We took Hip Baby to China with us when we adopted our daughter Liana last month. It is awesome. It was easy to pack in a very small space, it adjusted well to her size and ours and was so simple to get on and off, that we had no problem using it. Liana adapted to it quite quickly, and found that it was a very snuggle place to nap. I use it all the time now that we are home, both for errands and around the house, and have received many compliments on it!" Kathy B.
"Having Hip Baby saved us the embarrassment of lugging a huge backpack around while carrying our baby in our arms. Given the choice, Ramsey will pick the Hip baby over the backpack, stroller and walking on his own two feet!" Lisa T.
"I have been meaning to write you for several months to let you know what an asset Hip Baby has been. Hip baby and our diaper backpack were the two essential items we took to China to bring Michelle Xue home. At 20 months, she weighs about 19 pounds, and clung to us during our whole first week with her in China. She was used to being held by her Nanny in the orphanage, and felt secure in Hip Baby. (When she was in it, she didn't feel like she needed to cling to our necks.) I have recommended Hip Baby to our adoption agency and to our chiropractor. I think it is a valuable item for people to take to China when bringing home babies who are too heavy for snuggle carriers." Lee T.
