Wicklekinder GmbH have designed the manduca® with absolute attention to detail – inspired by the many ideas and suggestions their customers have given them over the years.
The combination of an integrated infant seat insert, and the option to extend the back is, as far as Wickelkinder GmbH knows, utterly unique, making the manduca®'s reputation as the innovation among soft structured carriers well deserved.
Thanks to this winning combination we can truly say the manduca® grows with your child. From birth to 20kg. With absolutely no need for expensive extra accessories.
If a good sling or carrier is like carrying your baby in your arms, it should also support your baby's back like a ‘third hand‘, keeping its spine very slightly ‘hunched‘ and its legs tucked up and spread a little.
Wicklekinder GmbH have consciously refrained from padding the main panel of the manduca®, so that it ‘fits‘ your baby rather than the other way round – just like a wrap sling.
Hidden, deep tucks in the manduca®'s seat area make sure your baby is held in the correct 'M' position while the leg openings are generously padded for maximum comfort.
Parents' maximum comfort is important to Wickelkinder GmbH too: the manduca® has been equipped with shoulder straps which can be adjusted in three different ways and a conically shaped waist belt which is a perfect fit for woman's waists and hips – but will fit dads like a dream too.
When you are wearing your baby right up close to your body without any other securing device, the waist belt has a vital role in keping baby there safely. That's why Wickelkinder GmbH searched high and low to find a waist belt buckle with a three-point fastening system, making it effectively impossible to release accidentally.
