Babywearing Intensive Training

🔸 Do you have minimal to basic experience with baby carriers and feel alone trying to figure out the best advice to give the parents you work with? 

🔸 Maybe you're not feeling confident playing guess work on what you've seen & heard and want to confidently advise on the safest and most up to date recommendations? 

🔸 Or maybe you sort of know the basics but are stuck when it comes to twins, premature bubs, or hip dysplasia issues? 

Without doing proper training, you may unknowingly be giving out information to your clients that is misinterpreted or ill-informed, resulting in unsafe and uncomfortable experiences for parent and child. And as carriers and slings become more commonplace, it's likely you'll be getting asked more and more questions in regards to there ideal use or what current guidelines are in place. 

If you are a profesional working with parents in the perinatal period, own a business that involves Babywearing or are hoping to start one, or a parent who wants to expand your own knowledge and skillset, my hands-on interactive training will give you the solid foundation you need so that you can confidently advise new parents on safe and correct Babywearing that will see them more connected than ever with their thriving baby. 💞
