ABSTRACT:
An infant transport device is formed of a generally rectangular section of soft and absorbent blanket or towel material having laterally spaced apart and integrally formed sleeves extending along opposed side marginal edges. Sleeves are open adjacent a front or proximal edge of the material and are closed at the forward or distal edge of the material with a closure which forms a mitten to receive a hand. The device has a width which is sufficient to receive an infant between the arms of an attendant which has been inserted within the two sleeves formed on the device and has a length from front to back which exceeds the height of the infant so that the entire body of the infant may be placed between the arms on the device and cradled or held in a sling-like manner. Thumb openings are formed adjacent the closed ends by which an attendant can extend the thumbs through the mitten portion for securing an infant or to aid and assist in gripping.
