The paper describes the ergonomic benefits of carrying children in woven wraps. The method of babywearing with woven wraps is a modernized approach which includes several aspects apart from just babywearing. The forms of wearing are proscribed through norms and they stimulate development as well as advance safety and health of the baby. In the experimental part of the paper, a research was conducted into babywearing with woven wraps through a survey among parents aged 18–60 years of age. The purpose of the survey questionnaire was to discover how well informed the participants were as to babywearing with woven wraps and its beneficial effects. How many parents use this method, what are the benefits of this type of babywearing and an overview of ergonomic benefits as well as benefits to the baby’s health. The results of the survey prove that the method of babywearing with woven wraps is being recognized by an increasing number of users and it provides numerous benefits for both the child and the parents which is why it is practiced by an increasing number of users.
