consult options
Babywearing support at you & your baby's pace, with home visit & hospital support options available for those living in East Sussex. With all appointments I focus on carrying safely, plus getting you confident and comfortable, whether we are looking at tweaks with your current slings, trying a few options – finding something new or preloved, or learning a whole new skill such as threading a Ring Sling, feeding, or back carrying solos – essentially I can help you (your partner, or other family members who wish to carry) with all your babywearing needs!
After all appointments, I always send recap materials via email to help you continue learning.
Depending on your requirements and budget I offer different appointment lengths, see the options below,
Please note time and travel fees will be additional to the base price listed below if outside the Hastings area.
standard consult
Mission
my space or yours

Great if you want look at range of carriers in the library, or cover an in-depth walkthrough / learn how to fit your existing sling(s) safely.
These 1:1 appointments are approx up to an hour long, with slight buffer room to allow for those baby things that come up (feeding, changing etc).
For little ones under 12 weeks, multiple wearers, OR if you'd like to cover a few things such as learning to tie your stretchy wrap and try a range of buckles – I'd suggest booking an Extended Consult for more time (1-2hrs).

MINI consult
quick support

Perfect for more than a quick fit-check; E.g: you need to learn how to set the carrier up, adjust, and put it on safely, achieving a good fit each time.

The fittings will be quick, so for more repetition / time I'd then recommend booking a standard consult instead.
