How it works
Each Studio Day will run on a pre-selected date each month. You'll be able to book a mixture of session-types from private sessions, workshops to affordable small-group support. It'll be relaxed, practical and obviously very baby-friendly too! We'll naturally flex around feeds, nappy changes, cuddles and I imagine the occasional wobbles! If you'd really love support but the date(s) below simply don't work, perhaps the session type you'd like is fully booked, or getting to me is quite tricky then do drop me an email and read the auto-responder for next steps.
​
Upcoming Studio Days:
Mon 12th October (trial run pre-baby!)
Tues 23rd November (tbc)
​Weds 16th December (tbc)

Baby under 3m and +6lbs with no extra considerations? Consider my Stretchy wrap workshop and/or Supported newborn hire scheme
Small Sling Clinic Social:
£12.50​
Short focused sling social. (max 4 families - 1 adult & 1 baby). Sit and chat with others while you wait to be seen for some quick sling support :) Is the session right for me? – Using a sling or carrier but something isn't quite working? Bring it along and we'll tweak things as needed, I'll talk through the what we're doing and whys as we go. Support may include: – Comfort or fit adjustments – Checking baby's positioning – Ensuring you've got the basics right – Going through your carrier adjustments so you understand them better. If you need to put the carrier on from scratch - that is going to take most of our short slot. I'll always work with your existing carrier where it can be used safely and appropriately. If your carrier isn't suitable or your question needs more time, I'll explain why and recommend the most appropriate next step. Clinic Social notes: – This is a **quick, focused check-in**, not a full consultation. It's not suitable for sling shopping, learning several carries or troubleshooting multiple issues. If you/baby have other additional health or medical needs we'll cover what we can, but a more in-depth consultation will likely be a better fit. If you're unsure on booking you can email littleonesnug@gmail.com with your question(s)! ​ Booking T's and C's​​ are listed at the bottom of this webpage!
Newborn Supported Sling Hire - from £20
A simple, affordable way to try babywearing during the newborn stage, without having to buy a sling straight away. 🧡 Choose either (subject to availability): ♡ 2-way stretchy wrap ♡ Close Caboo Your hire period (3-12 wks), will be based on your baby's age to cover you for the fourth timester. What's included? ♡ Your chosen sling for the agreed hire period ♡ Emailed guidance inc my favourite how-to tutorials ♡ Basic safety and positioning checks for each and every carry ♡Highly Recommended (but optional) check-in; send me up to 5 photos as a batch or video via whatsapp of your first fitting attempt (applies to one wearer); Note good positioning and fit is essential for safety when carrying a newborn. ♡ I'll provide reassurance and feedback, especially if there's something simple I'd suggest tweaking ♡ You'll get an email reminder when your hire is due back (please ensure prompt return so more parents can benefit from this scheme - late fees may also apply) The aim of this scheme is to give you an affordable way to try babywearing with a newborn, build a little confidence and see whether you enjoy carrying with a starter sling, before deciding what you'd like to invest in longer term. Want a little more support? Although the basic hire rate of £20 includes a simple first-attempt check-in over whatsapp with one wearer, experience as a consultant has taught me that it's much easier to learn with someone alongside you. Add on: ♡ Stretchy Wrap Starter Workshop info above (provided spaces are left) +£15** ♡ Video call support+£20** A little more individual help if you'd like to talk through your fit or troubleshoot something that's proving tricky. If you'd like more tailored in-person support, have multiple wearers or slings you'd like to work through, or there are additional considerations such as prematurity / your baby under 6lb or maybe as a wearer you have mobility issues, a Quick Support session (£25) or a Full Consultation (£65) will be more appropriate to book - and we can upgrade your hire instead. I'll always let you know if I think you would benefit from more support, BUT there's no expectation /requirement to upgrade. Looking ahead to what next: I'd love this to be a stepping stone into comfortable, confident babywearing beyond the newborn stage, so you'll also receive: **£10 off a future Full Consultation** perfect for if you'd like personalised help choosing a carrier for the next stage. **£5 off a future Quick Support session** perfect if you've bought a carrier and would like help getting it fitted comfortably as your baby grows. These discounts can be used until your baby is 6 months old. A little safety note With very young babies, getting the fit and positioning right is particularly important. If something doesn't feel right, baby doesn't seem comfortable, or you're unsure about their positioning, do stop using the sling and get in touch before carrying on.
Stretchy Wrapping
Starter Workshop – £20​
(3 family tickets available*). *Up to 2 adults per family unit welcome - note that one person will be an observer / helper. New to stretchy wrapping? Learn a straightforward, newborn-friendly stretchy-wrap carry in a small, relaxed group. We'll cover: – How to put on your wrap (note that you really don't need to buy anything before your session; – I have some lovely 2way-stretch ones for learning with - as these are most intuitive, so you can guage whether wrapping is for you, and can point you to where to buy after. – If you have a wrap - bring it and we can look to work with it despite the stretch-type). – A standard newborn-friendly pocket carry – Positioning and safety checks – Spreading and tightening the passes – Common issues and troubleshooting You'll practise with your own baby where possible. Demo dolls are available for pregnant attendees / those who need one, so we can build to baby! You'll also get: – Opportunity for free photo fitcheck with baby post-session, and some recap resources too. - Optional upgrade to Supported Newborn Sling Hire (keep scrolling! ↓) Is this the right session for me? – Suitable during pregnancy and for babies in the early months (roughly up to 12 weeks). – The session lasts around an hour, with plenty of flexibility for feeds, changes and cuddles. – One person will do the practical hands-on learning. A second adult can attend and observe.​ – This is a **practical small-group workshop**, ideal if you want to learn one useful stretchy-wrap carry without the cost of a full consultation. – If baby has additional needs i.e premature, or you have additional considerations such as mobility issues, you have several questions, multiple carriers/carries, more than one wearer needing hands-on help, or need more personalised support, a Full Consultation will likely be a better fit - please email littleonesnug@gmail.com if you're unsure, or my consults for the next date are already fully booked. The workshop will go ahead whatever the number, with the content and scope adjusted slightly to suit and keep your session more affordable. All booking T's and C's​​ are listed at the bottom of this website page!
An intro to Babywearing:
Sling-types Taster Workshop for £35
​
(3 family tickets available*). *Up to 2 adults per family unit welcome - one person likely will be an observer / helper. New to slings? Baby 12wks or less with no additional needs? Then this is for you! – We'll look at the main sling types and sub-categories within them – Talk about the pros, cons / things to consider when choosing between them (and brands) – Look at how different sling types can be adjusted – As a group, we'll try out different options and see how they feel (not everyone will get to put everything on, but you'll see the styles in action and get to feel / touch and we can chat things through!) Is this the right session for me? – Perfect if you're new to babywearing but aren't sure where to start, or if you want to explore your options before booking or committing to individual support.​​ – This is an exploratory group session rather than a 1-1 with fittings. – If you have a particular problem to solve, would like help with a specific sling, or have several questions you'd like to work through, Quick Support, a Full Consultation or the Sling Clinic may be a better fit. The workshop will go ahead whatever the number, with the content and scope adjusted slightly to suit and keep your session more affordable. Booking T's and C's​​ are listed at the bottom of this website page!
1-1 Consulations from Nov '26 - my existing services, just more scheduled on studio dates!
For one specific problem
Book Quick Support – £25
Up to 30 mins for 1 focused issue, such as carrier fitting (one of yours or mine), we may cover comfort tweaks, reassurance, tips and techniques on positioning baby etc. For 1 or 2 wearers – although there will likely not be time for more than 1 to do the practical (of course bring your little one too!) Add-on hire is also optional.
​
I want more guidance, and/or am not quite sure where to start:
Book a Full Consultation – £65
Up to 90 mins to explore your sling(s), try a few alternatives, learn a new skill - like wrapping, focus on safety checks as well as positioning tips and techniques, or perhaps something less common such as tandem carrying, covering prematurity etc, and/or working through several questions. Inclusive of one week's sling hire. For 1 or 2 wearers and your little one(s).
I'm expecting or have a newborn:
I do offer Bump to Baby package or a Newborn to toddler Growing Together package. But for now suggest booking a full-consult & then we can chat on the day and when you book your subsequent sessions, I'll discount them at that time :)
If budget puts these session types out of scope please do see funded options via buildingbonds.org
​
​​Please note 1-1 home visits are paused from Nov'26, and will be reintroduced once baby is older.
Let's break it down
1. Dates are released in advance
I'll announce the next Studio Day approximately a month ahead.
2. Book the session that's right for you
You can book a workshop, clinic or consultation depending on the support you need. (Via Eventbrite)
Please note bookings will close 5 days in advance. If you really would like support but the studio date(s) listed do not work then please do email.
3. Your place is confirmed once payment is received
All eventbrite bookings are reservations, with payment needed to secure within 24hrs to secure. Info in confirmation email.
This keeps the system simple & minimises my comms.
4. Come along and we'll take it from there
Bring your sling, bump or baby plus any questions you'd like help with.
And don't worry if your little one needs feeding, changing or settling during the session, that's very much part of babywearing life!
​I'm starting with one Studio Day a month and will see how it works for local families and for family life.
If demand is good and the format works well, I hope to increase this to two Studio Days a month in the new year.​
Dates will always be published here first.
