ABOUT
I'm Tessa, mum to 4 grown up children, and granny to 3 (not so) little ones aged 7,10 & 12.
When mine were young I tried various carriers, most were incredibly uncomfortable once baby got to 12lbs (and mine seemed to get there rather quickly!). With my last baby someone lent me a wilkinet, I thought it would be as bad as the others but this one really was better. We also used a rather uncomfy framed back pack as we love walking in the mountains.
I've really enjoyed carrying all of my grandchildren with today's ergonomic slings.
I've been an NCT antenatal & postnatal practitioner for over 30 years and through this did more training in babywearing. A client spoke to me about setting up a sling library in Bedford which we did 10 years ago. I've enjoyed this work so much and wanted to know more so decided to do my consultancy training-a good use of lockdown!
I love helping families find a carrier that works for them. I love it when parents tell me that the sling they've hired has been a game changer. I hope I can help many more families, grandparents included, to enjoy babywearing safely.
