Order Information
Can I change or amend my order?
Due to the high volume of orders that we receive, we cannot add to or change any items on an order once we have received it. Once your order is placed, it is final and we cannot cancel any order.
Please ensure all address details and items in your cart are correct before finalising your order.
You can find details on our refunds and exchanges policy and submit a Return Request online here.
Preorders
When an item is listed as 'pre-order', it is not available for immediate purchase as we do not currently have that item in stock.
Pre-order items have an extended delivery date in comparison to in-stock items. Please always refer to the estimated delivery date noted on the product.
If your order includes multiple items and some are pre-order while others are ready-to-ship, the entire order will be held and shipped together once all items are in stock. If you’d prefer to receive ready-to-ship items sooner, please place them in a separate order.

Product Warranty
Do Chekoh products have a warranty period?
All of our Chekoh products come with a 12 month manufacturers guarantee that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law.
You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage.
You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.
Safety & Endorsements
Are Chekoh Carriers safe to use?
We have ensured all our carriers are safe to use and have been designed to comply with the American Society for Testing & Materials (ASTM) standard ASTM F2236 in the United States.Unfortunately, unlike the United States, there are no strict safety standards that must be met in order to sell baby carriers in Australia. However, Chekoh has recently secured endorsement from the Australian Babywearing Association and our products comply with best practice positioning and support, and adequately explain safety and correct use for optimal outcomes.Our fabrics are OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified, ensuring they’re free from harmful chemicals and completely safe for your little one’s delicate skin.
Do Chekoh carriers support infants and children with hip dysplasia?
Every Chekoh carrier is thoughtfully created in line with the International Hip Dysplasia Institute (IHDI) guidelines to ensure your baby’s hips are supported safely and comfortably.
Our carriers promote healthy hip development by keeping your little one’s thighs supported to the knee and maintaining the optimal ‘M’ (or ‘froggy’) position - the natural, ergonomic posture for growing hips during those vital early years.
