One of the many features available in thisSims 4pack is the ability to take an infant out on the town with an adult Sim by putting them in a baby carrier. It may not seem obvious how one can obtain this item initially, so this article will explain exactly how to find it.

How To Get a Baby Carrier in The Sims 4

Whether aSim wants to go on a power walkaround the San Sequoia lake or they want to go out to the library, it’s always nice to take their infant with them so the baby also gets to experience parts of the outside world. However, to do this,the adult Sim needs a baby carrier. Thankfully, baby carriers aren’t something players need to purchase in theSims 4- they’re totally free.

Players can take their children with them in a carrier by interacting with the infant while controlling an adult Sim, choosing the Toddler Care option, and then selecting Put [Sim’s name] in Back Carrier.
