Jordan’s Back Carry
Instructions for the JBC (Jordan’s Back Carry)
JBC is my favorite back carry (obviously
). I invented it because none of the other back carries gave me everything I needed. I wanted baby to be up high on my back, but well-supported with multiple layers of fabric. I worked with altering several different back carries, eventually combining features, and the JBC was born!
In these instructions, baby is 10 months and the wrap is an easycare #3 Lagun 4.2m.

First, assemble your tools.

Next, get baby onto your back however you prefer (I’m doing hip scoot).

Then scoot baby up high on your back.

Position the wrap as though you are doing a Rebozo Back Carry, with baby in a good pouch seat and the wrap going over one shoulder and under the other arm. Tighten really well, and tuck the end of the wrap going over your shoulder between your knees.

Grab the other end of the wrap and tighten really well.

Bring that end back over the same shoulder.

Spread the wrap across baby’s back like in a cross carry.

Still spreading…

Tighten over baby’s back and tuck wrap under baby’s leg.

Tuck that strap between your legs and grab the other end.

Take that end back under the same arm.

Spread fabric straight across baby’s back.

Bring around to the front.

Tie in the front.

Ta-da!

Another angle….

Baby loves it too!




Wonderful instructions. Your video presentations are wonderful too. At times I like picture directions better. Thank you for both.
You created this carry?
I’m so glad you find the instructions helpful!
Yes, I created this carry. Near the beginning of my babywearing career, after I had learned a few back carries, I realized that each one had different features that I loved, so I worked on combining features until I came up with Jordan’s Back Carry. The other back carries still have a place in my carrying library, but JBC is my standard, everyday back carry.
took me 40 minutes to get this right. thank for your help.
went fine until the end.
perfect the second time.
my favorite new carry
