Redsbaby Connect Wrap
Verified129 reviews
The best wrap for a tiny newborn. You get the comfort of being close to your bub with the peace of mind that the wrap checks all the safety requirements. Because it’s not a traditional wrap ( a long fabric), it makes it easier to wear and supportive on the back. Very convenient and comfortable to wear for long. Show details
The wrap carrier is great. Initially felt a little confusing with which way to put the criss cross back over head (mind you I had a 2 week old new born and was heavily in sleep deprivation). Very quickly though with a few reviews of the manual it became second nature and was an amazing tool in soothing our baby and allowing me to get outside for… Read more
a walk and fresh air.
By about 5kg I did find I personally wanted to transition to the connect plus for a little more structure and support in place of the wrap however intend to keep the wrap carrier should we have another child for the first few weeks!
Highly recommend for mums who are looking for easy ways to wrap their bubs without having to worry about baby not being secured properly. Plus it looks modern and nice on any clothing style you wear. The fabric is stretchy and machine washable which makes it easier. Show details

You need this! – I love my connect wrap,so easy to use,baby is close and supported and keeps my hands free to carry shopping or my other child's hand. I have recommended this wrap to many people and will continue to do so. Thanks RedsBaby Show details · 1
It’s comfortable for Bub and I – I’ve updated my review after assistance from Redsbaby. Their customer service is probably the best that I’ve experienced. They always respond to my messages and they would go above and beyond to record videos to show me how to use it. Quality is good and soft. It’s easy to put on. I’ve watched my friend put on their wraps and theirs seem… Read more · 1
complicated.
After I wrote about it didn’t come with any storage ability, Redsbaby staff contacted and sent me video showing me how to put the wrap away. Now it’s much easier to carry it around. It even fit inside my nappy bag.
Overall, it’s comfortable for both bub and I. I will recommend it.
Fantastic wrap! – This wrap is great! My daughter loves a contact nap, and this is the best way to let her nap while still having my hands free to get stuff done. The skin to skin contact is great and the wrap has good structure despite being fabric so I don't feel nervous with her inside when I'm moving around. The first time you put it on its a little… Read more
confusing, but once you figure it out it's really easy! And the instructions are built into the wrap so you can always refer back to them.
It's a great price as well and so worth it!
Most comfortable baby wrap used to date – I wish I had this for my other kids, but knew I wanted something with a bit more structure than the Chekoh (which I could only use for a few months with my giant children). The Connect Wrap has been amazing and comfortable with my growing baby and I don’t see an end in sight to our use! I purchased during a sale but would pay full price in hindsight. Show details
In-depth reviews
So glad we bought this prior to bub being born! – With limited options from the newborn stage on the market for more structured wraps, I was so pleased when I did my research into recommended ones that the Connect wrap was both Australian owned and highly affordable compared to others on the market retailing from anywhere from $100 to $200 upwards. Our newborn is still tiny but I use it around… Read more
the house regularly and when going out of the house, it’s way easier than taking the pram which my newborn hates. She sleeps straight away in it, much like at home when she’s on my chest. Learning to use it properly took about three tries before it became really easy to do without looking at the instructions, which thankfully are very conveniently located with pictures on the inside of one of the straps.
I was concerned that it may be too hot for the Australian December summer but with the baby in limited clothing, I’ve had no issues with overheating her with the cool fabric. Looking forward to upgrading to the bigger version once she outgrows this one, thanks Redsbaby!
Overrated, more hype than substance – I really don’t understand why this wrap is so highly reviewed. I also use the Mobi Classic Wrap, which is a basic wrap. I bought this one for my husband to use, because I expected it to be easier to get on, but there really isn’t that much difference. We still have to cross the fabric and tie everything together, it’s not as simple as it looks.… Read more
Also, I bought the Mobi wrap at Baby Bunting, who are happy to help me fit it in store. For the Redsbaby, everything is online. If I hadn’t already used the Mobi, I wouldn’t have known what to do.
The wrap itself is basically fine, but I’m giving it a one-star review because I feel lied to. Redsbaby have a great marketing machine; their website is designed so that I couldn’t find basic information about the wrap such as the weight limits until I had waded through a lot of pretty pictures and clicked the “Buy” button. And now I’ve just discovered the reason they have so many reviews on this site is because they offer a chance at a $500 gift card for every review posted.
I couldn’t possibly recommend this wrap to anyone, I would suggest going to a shop with some friendly staff who will let you try a couple options if you want a wrap. There are other “pre-tied” wraps with buckles if that’s what you’re looking for, don’t believe the hype.
First time Mum review – What made me pick the Redsbaby Connect Wrap? As I have purchased the Redsbaby Jive 3 pram, nappy bag and many accessories for the Jive 3 pram and have always had brilliant dealings with the company and love what they stand for. Plus I have looked at many other Wraps on the market, many others look complicated to set up and use with baby and… Read more
require lots of ties and wrapping. Whereas with the Connect Wrap I found it very simple and easy to set up. It also doesn't require lots of ties and wrapping to hold baby in nice and secure. I also like how it has the adjustable back straps that make it that bit more secure than other Wraps. I enjoyed being able to watch demo videos to set up the Wrap as well. The sleek design makes the Wrap very stylish for EVERY occasion. I really really love how it comes in plastic free packaging as well. I cannot wait to buy many more Reds baby products including upgrading to the Connect Plus carrier when baby out grows the Connect Wrap.
Positive reviews
Comfy wrap to use with little babies – I love this wrap, I feel it’s a good mix between a wrap and carrier. The back support is comfortable and not bulky and good quality fabric. The wrap is easy to put on and use with the baby. The user guide and videos on online are great and helpful. It’s great for babies that are still too little for the baby carrier. I wish I was available to… Read more
order when I brought my pram as I would have liked to have had it earlier to use since I had to wait sometime for it to arrive. Order early to ensure it arrives when you need it as its a popular item that sells out.
The Best Hybrid Carrier Out There – Such an essential item. We already had the Redsbaby Connect Plus (which we love) but I wanted one that was a bit lighter and more for around the house. It’s SO soft and I find it really easy to get on and off. Couldn’t recommend this hybrid carrier (or Redsbaby for that matter) more. So happy with everything we’ve bought. Show details

Negative reviews
Honesty, it is very user unfriendly and a the price cannot be justified. It is bad. It should be simple and easy. It is not. 90 bucks...No... 25 bucks is thw fair price for it.Thank you. Show details
Tricky connect wrap – Lovely material and look however as much as I wanted to like this carrier it’s super difficult to use and confusing. Our little one did not like and I was somewhat concerned if it were secure enough. Show details
Not bad, good quality fabric, but not easy to use – Not easy to use at all when compared to what's shown on the website. The instructions on the wrap is inconsistent to what's been posted on YouTube and the website. Having baby held up high is difficult, the carrier ended up being better. Show details

Love the connect wrap – I love this wrap, I have the other redsbaby carrier aswell which I also love. I love how close my baby and is easy to see if their face is clear. It may seem more confusing to get on but after he first go it's actually quite straight forward. Show details · 1
An essential for Mum Life on the go! – The CONNECT Wrap has been an absolute life saver for my little one. The material is breathable for that warmer weather so that your baby can rest comfortably tucked inside without overheating. The fabric is soft yet sturdy and super easy to put on in a hurry!

Easy to use baby wrap – Was showed a demonstration the Baby Expo and it arrived shortly after ordering it on the day. Love the colour options and can’t wait to use this easy go-to option in the next coming months once baby is born. Show details · 1

This Wrap is amazing! – I have tried many wraps wondering how I will ever find one that I love and that is easy to use. The Redsbaby connect wrap is the perfect mix of comfort, affordability and easy slip on style that I was looking for. It’s simple and easy to navigate and I cannot live without it! Show details
Great product – Such soft material and so comfortable to wear .. once you have practiced a couple times, actually very easy to put on by yourself which is handy when home with baby alone! Show details
Very easy to use! Love it!! – As first time mum, I want everything to be efficient and fast. The Baby carrier that we got was absolutely one of the best purchases!! Show details
So soft - can't wait to use! – I really wanted a wrap carrier that offers support and this was perfect. The material is so soft and the clip makes it easy to assemble. I also love the pockets at the front for your hands to help with cuddles. Show details
Complete game changer! – Baby number 2 loves being close to me and I love that she is being supported. Her hips are in the perfect position and she feels like she’s being naturally held. The material is gorgeously soft and an aesthetically pleasing colour. I can finally get some things done around the house hands free! Show details
Very good for my baby – I just dint give 5 starts because the material is a bit hot for who lives in Brisbane like us. But it’s very comfy for my baby boy ,take a bit time to figure out how to use but after you understand it’s great ! Show details
Must have for new mums – The connect wrap was an absolute god send as a single mum, who most times didn’t have anyone to help get bubs into the carrier. A nice medium between a true soft wrap carrier and more structured carriers, the Redsbaby connect carrier provides the bonding experience of having bubs nice and close, cuddled in, whilst still providing support for my… Read more
back and shoulders, and feeling very secure. At $79 AUD, was also very competitively priced compared to other carriers on the market. Have recommended to many friends and other mums, and will be my first recommendation to any new mummas.
So soft but strong – This is a great baby carrier. Its really soft so it doesnt agitate me or baby's skin, and it is quite light and flexible so basically i forget i am wearing it. It is still really sturdy tho, and doesnt over-stretch. Highly recommend! Show details
