* removable head rest (hood): the main purpose of the head rest is to support a head of a sleeping child, but can be also used as a protection from elements (sun, rain shower, snow - although it is NOT waterproof). Users will get the best use out of the hood with children between 6 months to 2 years, but the hood can be used with children younger or older then this range. Head rest is stored in a pocket on the waist belt, and can be used in front and back carry.

* stay put strap: basically a simple 1 inch wide belt with two d-rings, which is sewn at the waist belt and serves to purpose to keep the baby carrier rolled neatly up for storage, or carrier rolled up this way can be attached round wearer's waist like a fanny pack and perform as a "hip seat" for a child, this would be a hand assisted hip carry (opposed to hand free front and back carry). Although a user would need a hand to keep child seated on the hip, it is more healthy and comfortable then pushing ones hip out to create a 'seat' for the baby.
