A device to be worn by an individual for use in supporting a child or infant to be carried seated on the shoulders of the wearer comprises a backrest for providing rearward and lateral support for the child, a bracing means for engagement against the rear of the torso of the wearer and a lever structure interconnecting said bracing means and said backrest, said structure extending forwardly and upwardly below the arms of the wearer and in front of the shoulders before passing behind the shoulders to the backrest, whereby the structure utilizes the frontal shoulder region of the adult as a fulcrum to transfer a rearward load on the backrest to the said bracing means.
