There’s nothing in the world that compares to having your baby in your arms - the feeling of a sleeping child against your chest, the sweet-smelling, down-covered head under your nose. In the early days with a newborn, mothers have time to enjoy these moments. Then reality sets in.
Baby is still dependent on you for nourishment, care, and comfort but everyday tasks and errands demand your attention. And you may have other children who need you. Life goes on, and there is always too much to do. But busy mothers do not have to give up the bliss of keeping baby close. They can accomplish those tasks that need to be done and still enjoy their baby’s companionship by “wearing” the baby in a carrier. According to Dr. William and Martha Sears, “Baby wearing does good things for babies, and it makes life easier for mothers.”
Join Denise Martin, CD(DONA), Postpartum Doula, Childbirth Educator, Certified Breastfeeding Councillor and La Leche League Leader as we discuss and evaluate the benefits of baby wearing. You will have the additional opportunity at Wild Child to practice using a sling and evaluate which style of infant carrier meets your fashion sense, and lifestyle. If you purchase a sling on that day, you will receive a 15% discount on your purchase.
Though this is a free event, space is limited so please contact Wild Child to confirm your spot

Babywearing is a big buzz word in the parenting scene these days. There are many different types of baby carriers and slings out there. tot-to-go stylish slings are definitely a great option! Celebrities like Courtney Thorne-Smith have thoroughly enjoyed their Tot-to-go slings and you can too.
The tot-to-go Spa Damask Baby Sling is the tot-to-go top selling sling online and at retail locations. I can definitely see why, as it is an eye catching pattern (robin egg blue and chocolate brown) and can be used for either a boy or a girl. There are also many other eye catching styles available.
