Baby Carriers Provided provides weighted demonstration dolls suitable for use in baby carrier education, as well as for other perinatal educational purposes. When new and expecting families are able to hold and manipulate a doll that feels and looks life-like, they can more deeply understand and integrate what they are learning about holding, carrying and caring for their
real babies. For an educator, using a weighted doll makes it much easier to accurately demonstrate how to ergonomically and safely hold and wear babies in carriers. For educators wanting to demonstrate lactation positioning, infant massage, or other skills not requiring the life-like weight of a real baby, we are also able to pre-order semi-weighted dolls.
Please use this form to acquaint yourself with the types of dolls we provide, and indicate how many of each size and style you are interested in. Once you submit the form, we'll reach out to you with confirmation and a quote for your particular order.
This form is not legally binding; we will confirm purchases individually. Given the heavy weight of these dolls, shipping is done via USPS priority and costs $25 per shipment, which can fit up to 2 babies (without their original boxes.) For example, shipping will cost $25 regardless if you need 1 or 2 babies shipped. Shipping will cost $50 regardless if you need 3- 4 babies shipped, $75 if you need 5-6 babies, and so on.
When you pre-order dolls with BCP, you will typically be receiving an approximate 20% discount over what you would pay to order dolls directly from the manufacturer (including shipping.)
We import dolls that offer a range of sizes and physical features and skin tones, which more inclusively represent and meet the needs of our community partners. If you specifically need a European/White doll, please let us know at the end of the form so we can provide specific details on how to order these through us.
You may save the link at the end of this form and edit your responses at any time. We will contact you at the email address you give to address any of your questions, concerns and to further discuss specific arrangements.
If you have any questions or feedback, please feel free to leave those in the last prompt. You may also reach out directly via email to
