Abstract: A carrier for convenient support of a child on an adult in either the facing-in or facing-away position includes a waist belt with abdominal support portion, a saddle seat that mounts to the abdominal support portion in either position, an over-the-shoulder harness that attaches at spaced locations on the front of the abdominal support portion, then crisscrosses the back and comes over the shoulder to two narrower vest support straps which clip to portions of the seat. A pocket vest slideably mounts on the vest support straps and a retaining strap laces through the abdominal support portion and the height adjustment loops on the pocket vest.
