🤔What sling is best for a scrunchy little newborn?
🌊So far we’ve tried stretchy wraps, ring slings, woven wraps and a couple of buckles.
I’m also one of them mums “my baby hates the sling” but I need to get the dog walked 🤦🏼‍♀️
❗️Newsflash, she doesn’t really hate it but she really doesn’t enjoy being pulled about whilst I’m anxiously faffing about because her legs don’t look right or I haven’t got the desired neat fancy finish 😅
🌊So today the sling that’s getting us out the door is the new Hana Expand buckle carrier just because we got a good position and my little one was happy!

🌊The bottom line is you don’t know what will work until you try a few out. I’d be gutted if I’d splashed out on a really expensive sling and it not being right for us. There really is a sling for everyone but it’s not a one size fits all.

🌊That’s why visiting a sling library can take out a lot of the stress on getting the right sling and having a consultation with a professional like myself can make life with your little one a lot easier from the start.

🌊I’m not running drop in sessions at the moment because I’m having time adjusting to life with a tiny human again however doorstep pick up and postal hires are still available.
🌊Consultations at mine are available upon request.

Ps I’m still working on wonderful wovens with my baby because they’re all so beautiful and a bit like learning to ride your bike! And yep my 5 year old would still get up on my back in one 🥰

Birth space prepped ✅
Rebozo in use as bump support ✅
Maternity leave started ✅
‼️Still sorting through a pile of admin and 20 outstanding sling returns ‼️

🙏Please please please🙏 if you have a sling out and you know it’s due back or I have contacted you and you haven’t messaged back can you please make contact and arrange to get the sling back or purchase it. I really don’t want to ring/message you all individually because it takes a lot of time and energy out of my day.

⚠️No more sling meets until further notice although I’ll still be posting updates with information and having a clear out of stock so you may have a chance to grab a barg!

🌊Apologies if I haven’t responded to messages/requests I am taking some time out for a little holiday around Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 If your sling is due to be returned it’s fine to post it back/drop it in my safe place (please pm for address details)

🌊If your hire is due and you’re aware you haven’t paid please can you make contact as I forgot to pick up the admin folder to take away with me which means a lot of you will slip through the net until I get home 🤦🏼‍♀️

🌊I’m hoping you’re all an honest bunch and will cooperate with me on this matter as I really don’t want to be chasing folk 🙏

🌊If you’re absolutely loving the sling you’re currently hiring I’m happy to give you a price as I’m having a big clear out whilst I’m on maternity leave in September 🫶🏻

🌊I’m happy to support you with all the slingy stuff remotely, just drop me a message and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can ☺️

🎉Latitude festival you’ve been amazing 🤩

🌊We saw so many lovely parents willing to learn new techniques at our wonderful workshops including woven wraps, back carrying and lots of fit checking to make sure everyone was comfortable and safe.

🌊We have returned safely home with our hearts full, smiles on our faces and weary feet from all of that dancing!

🌊Now to sort the muddy laundry and work through a soggy pile of wraps 🙈 signs of a good time!

🤔Why do you need us at a festival?

So far we’ve seen lots of:
❗️badly adjusted carriers
❗️babies outward facing over a year old in lots of Infantino and Baby Bjorn carriers
❗️babies being back carried extremely young with their heads covered up
❗️fake Ergobaby carriers
❗️”top of the range” but not worn correctly carriers
❗️parents looking uncomfortable from carrying a tired toddler on their hip

And it’s only the first day!

If you’re struggling with your sling, forgot to bring or just want to learn more about safe babywearing come and find us in the yoga tent in the Enchanted Garden. We’re running daily workshops alongside Baby Sensory East Suffolk

Let’s keep all of the babies safe and comfy at Latitude Festival 2025

JPMBB PhysioCarrier & Extension Kit - Booster Seat + Head Support

Keep baby close and comfortable in the Love Radius PhysioCarrier. This adjustable physiological baby carrier can be used with the booster seat and head support extension kit from birth, providing optimal ergonomic positioning. This carrier will keep both wearer and baby comfortable with generously padded straps and a mesh ventilation back panel.

A lightweight physiological baby carrier with additional head support and booster seat for use from birth to approx. 4 months.
Rounded booster cushion provides a physiological position from birth.
3 ergonomic babywearing positions; front, hip and back.
Side straps to adjust panel height as your baby grows.
Mesh hood to support baby's head and provide shade when sleeping without restricting movement.
Generously padded shoulder straps with mesh ventilation for all-season comfort.

This lightweight baby carrier is suitable for all season carrying comfort, with multiple mesh features and a handy mirror that allows you to keep an eye on what's happening behind you while back carrying. Use the booster seat to provide an optimal 'M' shaped ergonomic position from birth to approximately 4 months, and be used later during back carrying to raise the centre of gravity and boost baby for a better view over your shoulder.
