BABYWEARING 101

This class is ideal for expectant families, and families with newborns who are interested in learning about babywearing in a small group setting. Explore all the different carrier options from Milk in Motion’s CBWS Certified Babywearing Educator (CBE) to help pick the right one(s) for your lifestyle.

Weighted dolls and multiple types of carriers will be provided so you can practice and try carriers with the help of a certified educator close by.

Discover how a properly-fitting carrier makes it easier to soothe a cranky or tired child, to get outside more often, and to maneuver in tight spaces - think metro, stairways, and crowded stores, all while being hands free! In this 2.5-hour class you will learn:

  • The many benefits of babywearing for all families

  • The pros and cons of some of the most popular carrier types

  • Tips and tricks to wear baby safely and comfortably

  • and More!

Class participants will follow along to your CBE’s instruction and demonstrations with only brief individual corrections and adjustments as needed due to the group setting. Please note that if you are seeking more individualized support with one or two types of carriers, we recommend you schedule a private baby wearing consult.
