The leg straps replace the traditional hand grip during shoulder carrying and attach the child’s legs to the harness. The backrest protects the child from falling backwards and the adults head prevents the child from falling forward. A waist belt is provided for extra safety. Parents do need to be aware of obstacles above their head, which would also be the case when carrying your child on the shoulders without OE carrier.
