Babywearing Workshops
Our babywearing workshops help parents and carers carry their baby safely, comfortably, and with confidence.
Delivered in partnership with Born to Carry.
These small-group workshops provide practical support to help families learn about different baby carriers and how to use them safely and comfortably.
Sessions are facilitated by Born to Carry, offering personalised, evidence-based support for parents and carers.
What is babywearing?
Babywearing means carrying your baby or toddler on your body, in a carrier or wrap.
When done safely, babywearing can ease the physical demands of carrying your baby for long periods, while keeping your hands free and making it easier to manage daily tasks. It is a safe and practical option from birth through toddlerhood.
How can babywearing help you?
Babywearing offers many benefits for both you and your baby:
Builds connection and attachment
Keeping your baby close can strengthen the natural bonding between you and your baby, supporting emotional and mental health wellbeing for both of you.
Supports healthy physical development
Using a suitable carrier can support healthy hip development, reduce pressure on your baby’s head, and allow them to observe and engage with the world around them.
Supports feeding and responsiveness
Babywearing makes it easier to recognise and respond to your baby’s needs, and can support feeding and settling.
Provides practical, hands-free support
Baby wearing allows you to move more freely and keep your hands free, making it easier to manage everyday tasks while keeping your baby close.
Builds confidence and comfort
Learning how to use a carrier safely and comfortably can help you feel more confident and supported as you care for your baby.
About Born to Carry
Born to Carry was founded by Tania, a babywearing consultant, registered midwife, and mum. Tania has a passion for bringing babywearing back into the heart of the community and understands how transformative babywearing can be when it’s done safely and comfortably.
Whether you have a fussy newborn who only settles in your arms, a curious toddler who wants to see everything you’re doing, or you’re navigating places that aren’t pram-friendly, babywearing can offer connection, freedom, and practicality.
Many families stop babywearing due to lack of confidence, discomfort, or choosing a carrier that doesn’t suit their body or baby. Born to Carry provides personalised, evidence-based support to help you choose the right carrier and learn how to use it safely and confidently.
