Is a toddler harness a good idea?

It's a fair question, and one plenty of parents think through before buying. It can feel like you're holding your child back from exploring freely. But in the moments that really call for it, a busy street, an unfamiliar place, or managing more than one little one at once, keeping your toddler safely close matters more than a few extra steps of freedom. Used the right way, at the right moment, it's simply a safety tool, not so different from holding a stroller handle, and it still lets your toddler walk and move on their own two feet.

When should I use a toddler harness?

Anywhere a split second matters, busy streets, carparks, airports, shopping malls, theme parks, or unfamiliar places. Many parents also find it helpful when travelling with a toddler and a younger baby at the same time.

Is a harness or backpack leash better for my toddler?

It depends what you need. A backpack-style leash gives your toddler something fun to wear, often with storage, while the Moose Noose is lighter and keeps your toddler closer in tighter spaces like airports. The double-velcro wrist closure also takes two hands to open, an extra layer of security many backpack-style leashes don't have.

How does the double-velcro closure work?

The wrist strap uses two layers of velcro, so it takes two hands to open. Your toddler can't easily slip it off themselves, giving you extra peace of mind while they're wearing it.

Is this harness suitable for children with autism or ADHD who tend to wander?

Yes. Many families of children with autism or ADHD use a toddler harness for exactly this reason, including for older children who may need extra support with safety in busy places. Wandering, sometimes called bolting or eloping, is a well-documented and common safety concern, not a reflection of your parenting.

Great Reassurance

My child hates the car seat so its great reassurance that she is ok and nothing is wrong with her. It attaches well to headrest and will fit any car. Large clear mirror gives perfect reflection. I can see a clear reflection of her and I don't need to pull vehicle over when she cries. I use this everyday, its permanently in the car. Its so much easier to see her and know she is ok, head resting correctly, no vomit, sleeping or awake.

Low quality on the rotating joint

Dissapointing. Only after 6 months, the 360⁰ joint got loose and the mirror suddenly fell off. Luckily my baby wasn't on her car seat, it could have lead to something worse.

I'm so sorry to hear part of your backseat car mirror needed a replacement part. What a shame you didn't contact us. Our phone number and email address is visible all over our website. We could have had a replacement part sent to you on an overnight shipping service and could have solved your problem so easily. Our backseat car mirror is our best selling product. We've been selling this item for over 8 years and have only ever had a handful of parts to replace. I assume the sun has broken down the plastic. As a small business we really appreciate a customer contacting us to help solve any problems. Nothing is ever 100% perfect, 100% of the time :) We're here to help :) All the best - Jane

Great Mirror

We brought out baby girl home from the hospital last week and it brought us such amazing peace of mind be able to see her in the mirror the whole way home. The mirror is clear and really easy to install, and feels safe attached the the headrest. I would definitely recommend this mirror to others, and will buy it as a gift for people having babies in the future

Best back seat mirror ever!

We tried many different mirrors but they all seemed to be too small, moved out of place too easily, or too hard to see the child in because it either showed a distorted image or couldn't position it in the best position to see baby. Finally we bought the Moose See-My-Baby mirror and it solved all of our issues. It attached easily to the headrest, it was easy to position it so that we could see baby and it didn't impair our view out the back window, and it didn't move out of position easily with the constant moving of the child in and out of their seat (plus little feet kicking it barely moved it). We now buy our friends one of these as a gift when they find out they are expecting so they don't have to go through the same trial and error we did.

Moose Noose Toddler Safety Harness

$34.99

Keeping a toddler close in a busy street, an airport, or a packed shopping centre is one of those things that's easy to plan for and still hard in the moment. The Moose Noose is a toddler harness designed in New Zealand, giving your little one room to walk and explore while keeping them safely by your side.

It's especially popular for airports, shopping malls, carparks, and busy footpaths, anywhere a split second is all it takes for a toddler to disappear into a crowd, or when you're managing more than one little one at once.

The Moose Noose uses a genuine steel inner core, not just thick plastic, along with double-stitched neoprene straps and a double-velcro closure designed to stay secure.

How to Use Your Moose Noose

Slip one wrist strap onto your toddler and the other onto your own wrist. The double-velcro closure takes two hands to remove, so it stays securely in place. The coil stretches to around a metre, enough for your toddler to walk beside you and explore, without the risk of running off into a carpark or busy street.
