Hippychick Hipseat
The Hippychick Hipseat is a best-selling child product. It is renowned for its durability, style as well as comfort. This is because it is tough and hard wearing. Also, it is machine washable, so can go anywhere with you!
It have been made to address the main cause of adult back pain. Instead of twisting the spine, the parent’s back stays straight and the child is tucked into the chest, providing comfort and security for both adult and child. At the same time, the hipseat provides a firm shelf for the child to sit on and supports their increasingly heavy weight from underneath.
The Hippychick Hipseat has a padded seat with a non-slip pad for extra comfort and is available in several fantastic colours.

The hipster has made it so much easier carrying our grandbaby. For bubs 6 mths and older, it’s a must have for saving your arms and back as they grow.

I only wish I had bought it sooner. I tend to use it at the front of me, even though it’s not really designed for this, but it works well. I just strap it on in the mornings and leave it on all day, it’s really comfortable to move around in.

Bub will only fall asleep upright and is a heavy boy so this has saved my arms and back so much! I find it really comfortable to wear and the fabric quality is fantastic! We will be using this for a long time to come!

Life saver for me! My bub has reflux and has to be upright all the time so this has been great as he gets older and heavier I can get him to sleep easy on this just by supporting him instead of holding his weight!
Love it and it’s so lightweight and supportive.

Love this!! It hurt at first on my hip but then I started breathing in all the way and putting it on whilst holding my breath, works a treat now.
My 11kg bub loves hanging out with me from doing the bits and bobs around the house to nipping to the shops for a wonder around.
Very happy with this carrier.

I purchased this product after it was recommended to me. I have problems with my back/neck and holding weight in my arms, so I decided to try this product. I wish I had know about it sooner!! This takes all the weight off my arms and back and I only have to support my granddaughter from going backwards. It gives me the extra support I need. My granddaughter sits on the seat, puts her down on my shoulder and goes to sleep, so this works very well for me.
I recommend this product, its great and a really good idea!!

My 1 year old is rather clingy and wants to be picked up all the time while I’m in the kitchen cooking. This takes some of the load off and i’m able to hold him a bit longer but I’m really struggling to find a comfortable fit. My son is just shy of 11kg and when he sits on the seat it naturally sags down onto my hip and this is where the issue is for me. Perhaps it’s my anatomy or the fact that I don’t have much fat on my hips, but the plastic seat presses on my pelvis and it really hurts, and so I can’t bare to use it longer than I would have liked. If the whole seat pocket was padded then I think it would prevent this type of discomfort for the wearer. In my picture I am pointing to the “hard” part of the seat that hits my ilium bone. I ordered the purple but it was out of stock and then decided on the blue which is very nice and wearable.

My 5 month old baby granddaughter likes to be nursed to sleep in horizontal position. The Hipseat is perfect, assisting with weight of baby and thus saving my back. It is also useful for just holding baby. I’m very happy with Hippychick
Hipseat. About 8 years ago I noticed a friend’s daughter using this seat and she was very helpful, giving me the website details. A wonderful invention.
