Close Caboo Lite Baby Carrier | 2.3 - 14.5kg

The Close Caboo Lite Baby Carrier is a soft structured, ring-adjusted hybrid baby carrier for easy newborn carrying from day one. A bridge between a stretchy wrap and a buckle carrier, it gives the close, supportive feel of a soft sling without needing to learn how to tie a wrap.

Developed by Close with NCT, the UK’s largest charity for parents, the Caboo Lite was created to make soft carrying more intuitive, accessible, and affordable for new families. It is suitable from 5lb / 2.3kg to 32lb / 14.5kg, and is typically used from day one through the early months, often up to around 6 to 9 months, or until baby grows out of it developmentally.

Made from a lightweight, breathable blend of 70% cotton and 30% polyester, the Caboo Lite has less fabric than the Caboo+ Organic for a cooler, lighter carrying experience. The wider, stretchier straps help distribute weight evenly across the wearer’s body while supporting baby from the top of the head to the base of the spine. There is no tying required; simply pop the carrier on, position the baby safely, and adjust the fit by pulling the fabric through the rings.

Babywearing is one of the oldest and most natural ways to care for a baby, keeping them close to your warmth, heartbeat, and movement while they remain part of the rhythm of family life. Babipur is proud to stock Close Caboo carriers, a trusted babywearing brand known for soft, practical carriers that support responsive carrying from the earliest days.
