Consultations

    

 

Please note: I am currently on maternity leave and don't give consultations. 

An individual babywearing consultation is a unique meeting which usually takes place at your home (or your preferred quiet place where you and your baby will feel well) or online. Before the consultation I will ask you a few questions about your baby and the person who is going to carry, to prepare better. Your needs are the most important and my role is to propose you a carrier and a type of carry that will math your expectations. Each consultation is 100% customized and therefore one-of-a-kind.

During consultation you will have time to take care of your little one - feed, change or hug - anything that is needed. I will mix theory with exercise so we can practice wrapping when your baby is ready to cooperate. I want to ensure you feel comfortable and safe while wearing your baby, that's why during the face to face consultation you will learn first how to wrap on a special weighted doll and only then on your baby. Your partner is more than welcome to participate in the meeting too, so both of you can learn how to babywear or offer each other support in your first days of carrying. 

For in-home sessions I always bring wraps so you can try various styles, fabrics and sizes and decide what suits you best. I have a big range of slings including woven wraps, stretchy wraps and hybrids, ring slings, meh dais as well as soft structured carriers from some of the most popular as well as less known brands. Lenny Lamb, Didymos, Boba, Close Caboo, ByKay, Little Frog, Ergo Baby, Love&Carry, Solnce, Yaro slings, Oscha - you name it. Depending on your needs you will either get to know more about the ones you want or I will prepare the best selection for you. If you are a beginner - it is best to not buy a wrap/carrier before the consultation, but if you already have one - we will make the most of it.

See below the various types of consultations I give, either face to face or online. If you are interested in booking one of them as an online session, you can read more about how to prepare here.
