Our daughter loves to be forward facing and seeing everything (nosy little girl HA) and the other Carrie’s we had covered her face and made it so it wasn’t safe. We saw the Honeyroo and loved the base for the babies to sit on, and took a chance. Best chance we took, this carrier is amazing, comfortable, baby girl loves it, and the little compartments around the belt are great for your phone, binkys etc! I would definitely recommend buying this carrier, you will not be disappointed!!!
