    What age/weight is the child?
    You can have a baby on your back in a standard wrap or soft structured carrier up until at least 2.

    Have a look at this

    I've got that exact one & highly recommend it. I'm pretty sure sell them in The Great Outdoors and also in the larger Millets in Ireland. Just ring ahead to make sure they have the correct one as there are more than a few different types of design.

    We managed to get one on sale last year but the price of getting it from a "bricks and mortar" store compared to importing it is pretty similar. Better if you can get it on sale.

    While I can't speak for the OP - personally I have found that the above carrier is far preferable to babywearing when going hillwalking. I have a number of babywearing slings and structured carriers but nothing beats this particular item for back support when you're carrying an older child.
