The harness is characterized by an apron or bib-like fabric panel defining a pouch adapted to receive the back and rump of the infant. It carries a belt loop for detachably securing same to the lap belt together with inner and outer strap subassemblies. The inner of the two strap subassemblies releasably fastens the infant to the pouch while the outer one similarly releasably fastens the adult to both.
