Have a baby who doesn’t like to be put down?
Yep, that’s a baby alright. Yep, it’s normal.
Feel like there’s no space for you to live your own life because you’re spending all your time holding your baby or trying to get them to nap in their crib? Enter: babywearing. Wearing my own two kids was a lifesaver in terms of getting my own needs met while still reponding to my children's need for closeness with their parent.
Unfortunately, as we no longer live in community, few of us arrive at parenthood with a well-ingrained habit of carrying the young in our “pack”. Most parents first think to learn about babywearing after coming home with their new baby and realizing they just want to be held all. the. time. They come home and think “ Gosh, I think we have a used ring sling somewhere, but I’ve never used one of these things and i’m not sure how to tighten it.” Enter: babywearing educator.
Want to know the benefits of carrying your baby and keeping them against your body? Looking for a fit check on a carrier you inherited from a buddy? Want to know if the way you are carrying your little bub is safe? Look no further: babywearing educator at your service :)
