Kemby Sidekick diaper bag/baby carrier giveaway
Posted by Ariel · Product reviews, Sponsored giveaway

22 Jan 2010

I'm quickly learning that schlepping is a key ingredient of motherhood. I schlep the baby around the house, schlep a burp rag with me from room to room, schlep him into a sling when we go out, and schlep his diaper bag along as well. So I'm all for a 2-in-1 item that reduces my schlep.

Enter Kemby's Sidekick bag. This thing is a stroke of genius, and in fact the design has totally been patented. See, it's not only an insanely styley diaper bag … it also converts into a side sling. No need to schlep both a sling and a bag when you head out, because the bag BECOMES the sling. It's like a Transformers, only less Michael Bay explosions and Shia Labeouf saying "No no no no."


I got my hands on a Kemby Sidekick to review — and I've got an extra to give away to a reader! This thing is seriously FANTHEE, and when I say FANTHEE, I mean fancy but with a lisp that makes it even more so.

I'm bitter that Tavi's still a too small to fit in the sling (Kemby's Sidekick works best for babies 5 months and up), but I'm embarrassed to admit how much time I spent this week preening over the bag and appreciating all the little design details. I think maybe it's because I spent my childhood obsessing over Sanrio products with tiny little boxes and drawers and 2"x2" pads of paper with inch-long pencils, but I'm a huge fan of a place for everything and everything in its place. And ooh girl, Kemby's bag scratches that itch sooo gooood.

The bag has a magnetic front flap closure so you can get to your baby stuffs one-handed, and little pockets for everything. There's a big back pocket to hold the included changing pad, plus two external side pockets (bottles? sippy cups? iphone?) and a bottom pocket to keep used wipes separate. Under the to flap there's a big front pocket, and then the large main bag area for all your diapering supplies. It comes with an insulated bottle bag, and I don't know why I appreciate this so much (branding dork!) but the bag is shaped like Kemby's logo — a little egg. So cute! This is all to say, just as a straight-forward diaper bag, Kemby's Sidekick is a winner. The shape is great, and the design is clean.

But then there's the whole side sling conversion! So freaking cool. Basically the bag's shoulder strap becomes a waist belt — turning the bag into sort of an enormous stylin' fanny pack. A quick unzip and a flip of the bag's top flap reveals a strap to go over your shoulder and VOILA! Plop the baby on to of the bag and you've got a nice secure side sling for the kiddo. And of course you can still get into the main pocket to reach that crap that you're schlepping.

Also, not that it really matters, but I love that Kemby is a little two-mom company based here in Seattle. When I contacted them about doing a giveaway, one of the founders invited me over to her house for a visit and didn't bat an eye when I whipped out the boob to nurse Tavi. I'm a sucker for the indie bizzes that aren't afraid of mama boobs.

Anyway, while I sit here impatiently waiting for Tavi to grow so I can use the bag — I've got a green Kemby Sidekick to give away this week!

@justme

yeah, and it looks like most of the baby's weight and the weight of the bag are on the shoulder strap since the belt doesn't seem very substantial… seems like it could be ok for a small baby but not so much for more than a 12 pounder. I couldn't see, for example, wearing a 1 year old in it (and for reference, I still wear my 2.5 year old quite well in a mei tai or a woven wrap)

Before I had my daughter i saw this and thought it was perfect too, but honestly, I wouldn't do any long-range babywearing with this as it doesn't provide much ergonomic support (for the wearer). The one shoulder thing gets tiring fast with a heavy baby plus the weight of the bag.

The bag itself is pretty cute though, and I could think of a lot of things to put in that hip carrier area (jackets, stuffed animals I have to end up holding, etc.) but I personally wouldn't buy it as my sole sling/carrier option; for a hip carrier, you're better off with a ring sling with a pocket that can carry a few essentials.

oh my god, that beautiful bag. I've got to admit, I'm always jealous of women toting babes along with rockstar diaper bags. I always ended up using the backpack that I used in highschool (go Lands End) bc I have such a hard time fitting cloth dipes into most diaper bags. Still… diaper bag lust is a powerful thing.

Oh wow now that is the cutest but most practical change bag I have ever seen – exit silly overpriced ugly change bags with no useful sized/shaped pocket enter super cute bag of awesomeness.

Oooh…I love lime green. And free things that are lime green are even better. If I win this will be one of the first things for the baby….so far we have a toothbrush that my dentist gave me when I was four weeks pregnant. Babies only need toothbrushes and diaper bags, right? ;)

I'm a big fan of Offbeat Bride and now I'm an even BIGGER fan – I'm 35 weeks pregnant! Our offbeat bambino is due on our first wedding anniversary! I was planning to use what I've got for a diaper bag, but this one looks irresistable.

Beautiful diaper bag, but that looks seriously, seriously painful (and potentially dangerous for the mama if used with any regularity or duration) as a baby carrier. Look at how the very narrow shoulder strap is riding up on the mama's neck in every picture. I get the willies just looking at it. There'd be next to no weight distrubution, and the weight of the bag would combine with the weight of the baby to put an extremely heavy load all on the one side of the body. I know for sure I couldn't wear my baby in that for even five minutes without wanting to die (and at 19lbs/8months I still wear her all the time, comfortably, in all different postiions, including on the hip–in woven wraps, mei tais, buckle carriers and slings). I'd hate to see a mama be turned off of babywearing by such an obviously uncomfy carrier hybrid.

Lots of carriers–woven wraps, ring and pouch slings, and unpadded or lightly padded me tais in particular–fold down small enough to squish into a diaper bag pretty easily, and they allow you to wear baby on your front, back or side. Short woven wraps and rebozos can be worn as a scarf when the baby isn't in them, too!
