Fully qualified


I am now a fully qualified babywearing consultant. Earlier this year, I invited teachers from the German Clauwi babywearing school over to Cambridge, and a few of us attended the course and gained the qualification required to become a fully fledged babywearing instructor.

It was very enjoyable and absolutely fascinating to learn all the background required to teach, including why infant are designed to be carried, the physiological development of the baby spine and hips, as well as lots of babywearing techniques and tips.

Over the last few months as my daughter Charlotte grew from being a newborn to a soon to be one year old baby, I have enjoyed experimenting with every sort of sling available, and my sling collection is now over 30!
