Congratulations to our Winner, Annie Browne
Watch for the next Labor Day to Labor Day 12-week Giveaway this coming Sunday.
More prizes coming your way!
If there is one thing I wish I had from day one of Cash?s life, it would be an Ergobaby Performance Carrier. With all of the hiking, trekking, moving, and walking the Powell Pack does, this sure would have made our life easier.
I was introduced to the Ergobaby Carrier this last summer in Colorado. A friend and I were taking our combined 5 kids (6, if you include the baby on board ?) for a hike in the beautiful mountains of Canon City, CO, and Cash ? bless his heart ? was being the usual Cashy Boy?super rambunctious! I didn?t have any desire to pull him up those mountains with the risk of him running over a ledge. Nor did I feel like carrying him on my hip the whole way. I was 6 months pregnant for crying out loud!
Ergobaby to the rescue! Much to my surprise, the Ergobaby Carrier my friend lent me not only carried Cash?s 2 year old body on my back, but carried him comfortably for both of us. And until this point, Cash had NEVER been a fan of carriers!! EVER.
I?m sold.
After doing some research of my own, I realized Ergobaby has a line specifically designed for active parents like us! I thought the one I wore was comfortable for hiking?I can only imagine how comfortable the Performance Carrier is. I can?t wait to try it out!
You can win one of these $135 amazing carriers for yourself!

We go walking all the time at the park and around our house. I have a 5 year old and 8 month old twin girls. I carry one on my chest in a moby wrap but i dont feel comfortable to put my other twin on my back in a wrap and all the carriers are so uncomfortable for me and my twins. They hate them so im looking for something thats comfortable. I would love to get an ergo baby carrier but we just cant afford it. :'(
I am a singl mom to two beautiful kids using an Ergo carrier would be a life saver! In addition to carring two very young, 15& 2 months old, kids I also have to lug around their double stroller and baby essentials in the diaper bag. Now picture an 105 lb mama struggling to get a double stroller out of the trunk of her car, lol not a pretty sight. I have made myself a wrap given that money is tight and my youngest hates it, n top of that I have no idea how to put my oldest in it or if she’d even fit! I’ve read plenty reviews and asked many other mamas what they reccommend and Ergo was their answer. To have an Ergo would be the best, we would use it at the park, on walks, play dates, uncles football games, doctor visits, you name it! This is a necessity for my family because with one running everywhere and the other sleeping all the time carrying one would definitely put ease to their mama 🙂
We have four kids. My oldest is 3 years old. We love to geocache as a family and the performance carrier would give us an opportunity to go again with so many littles!
I am not an exercise nut, though my family and I all love the outdoors and being active. I have several pounds to shed to be healthy however, and need to lower my probability of having gd with a (hopefully) second child. I live in MN and with winter coming fast upon us it means a six month appointment with the YWCA. This year I have Elvie, and I can only imagine how much easier (and the likelihood I will DO them) my walks will be with a carrier designed for activity. I don’t think my ring sling is an ideal match or ideal solution to carry her.
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I also have a 2 year old who hates being carried, but then gets tired…..we live in beautiful Cotswold countryside with commons stretching across the top of numerous valleys, and this means exercising with the wee man would just get 100% easier
Every year we travel somewhere to hike. Last year we drove out west from IL and hiked at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, Yosemite, and Saddle Mountain in Orgeon. This year we went to Acadia in Maine and The Bruce Penisula in Ontario. Yosemite was by far my favorite! I will use the Ergo carrier to show my son this beautiful earth we live on!
My favorite hike was in the absolutely breathtaking Kauai. We hiked part of the 11 mile Kalalau trail (one of the 10 most difficult trails). Hard terrain but the views were completely worth it.
I use an Ergo a lot with my 3 year old. We like to go hiking around Minnehaha Falls in Minneapolis MN.
I just had my 3rd and final baby, he is 7 months. My oldest is 7, middle 4…Would be great to do more outings all together…We live in MT so you can imagine the outdoor lover in me is screaming for this!! My favorite hike is out my back door. Up the hills in our property. I so need this!!
My favorite hikes with my Ergo are when I was visit my childhood home. We go on a walk down through the field and across the creek where I have picked blackberries every summer since I was old enough to walk. It is such an awesome feeling sharing that with my daughters. I plan to share it with my son(14months) too.
