Abstract: A child carrier adapted to be conveniently borne by an adult and readily adjustable to conform to the body of any child. The carrier is fabricated from a piece of flat, flexible material contoured to define a back section provided with a pair of outstretched wings and joined by a Venturi-shaped crotch section to a flap section. In assembling the carrier, the child's body is placed with his back resting on the back section, the flap section being then folded over the abdomen, with the child's legs extended through the openings formed by the crotch section, thereby creating a diaper-like pouch. The pouch is completed by overlapping the wings on the folded-over flap section and fastening the wings thereto at positions determined by the dimensions of the child's body, whereby the child is snugly held.
