The Sling Lady
Considering buying a carrier or sling? There's many options on the market but not much info about the pros & cons of different styles. Not all carriers are created equal. I help you understand what to look for in a comfy carrier for parents & babies, & I have a wide range for you to try before you buy. Removes the uncertainty!
Already got a sling but it's hard to use, or not comfy? Or your sling allows back carries but you're unsure how to do it? I help you get the best from your sling, also giving tips & tricks so that you & your child get maximum benefit & enjoyment from your purchase.
Tired arm from an up/down toddler? I'll show you the sling options to ease the weight.
