What we'll cover

Six topics, two hours.

Babywearing Basics

The fundamentals: how carrying works, what to look for, and how to get comfortable and confident from day one.

Babywearing Safety

The TICKS guidelines in practice: keeping baby visible, close, high and supported, every time you carry.

Newborn Physiology

How newborn bodies work: airways, spines, hips and temperature, and why they shape how you carry.

Newborn Positioning

Hands-on positioning for tiny babies, practised with dolls so you know what "right" looks and feels like before the real thing.

Types of Sling

A guided look at stretchy wraps (including pre-tied options), ring slings and a selection of structured carriers.

Mental Health

Preparing for the early weeks, how closeness helps, and looking after your own wellbeing as well as your baby's.

Good to know

Common questions

Who is the workshop for?

Expectant parents. It's a prenatal workshop, so there's no need to have a baby yet, and partners are very welcome.

Do I need to bring a carrier?

No. A selection of carriers will be available to try, and we'll practise with dolls. If you already own or have been given a carrier, bring it along and we can look at it together.

What stage of pregnancy should I be at?

Any stage is welcome.

What if I can't make it?

Just let us know as soon as possible.
