💜 August Availability 💜
If you have been following me for a while you'll know I don't run any library sessions over the summer.
They take a lot of time and effort to run, and I prefer to keep it low key so I can focus on having some fun times with my boys 😁
However, that doesn't mean I am completely going off grid! I will be running a couple of "Library session slot" days and be available for private consultations on select days throughout the summer.
On library session slot days I have 5x 15 min slots available for booking between 11am and 12.30pm. These can be used for fit/safety checks on your own sling, or to get one of mine to hire 🤩
I will also be checking messages and hopefully sharing some posts! So please do get in touch if you have any questions❓️
I will be less available between 20th-31st August, as we are off on holiday that week. Fingers crossed the good weather lasts until then!
If I dont see you, have a great summer!

💜 Sling Library! 💜
Our final sling library before the summer break is coming up this Friday, 17th July.
Come and see me if you'd like a sling for the summer or your holidays! Or if you'd like us to do a quick safety and fit check with your own 😊
As usual we join Colchester Perinatal Hug CIC as part of their Family Hug sessions, so you can also get support with infant feeding and physical recovery!
Or you can just come along for the chats and the free coffee 😉
Hope to see you there! Let someone know its happening in the comments below 👇

💜 Ring Sling tip! 💜
Do you find the shoulder material of your ring sling restricts your movements a bit? It may be because the rings are too low.
Give this a go and see if it helps!
Let me know in the comments what you think 👇

🌷 So I did this thing! 🌷
Not babywearing related, but the shameless plugging of a parenting related thing 😊 It is a summer holiday planning diary 🌞
🌻 It has space for planning, with ideas and tips from yours truly. There is space to record reflections and memories as well as a daily diary that covers the 42 days+ of the summer holidays.
Its meant to help take away some of the stress of Summer holiday planning, as well as capturing memories each year to look back on. A great gift to give the children once they have grown 💜
🌸 If this sounds interesting to you at all then you can purchase it from Amazon by following the link in my story. Or comment SUMMER below and I'll send the link directly to you!
If you know anyone who would be interested then I would really appreciate any shares 🙏
If this doesn't interest you, then thanks for reading and moving on 😊♥️
And now I will return to my regular content 😅

Happy Fathers Day to this crazy haired man! Definitely an advocate of babywearing and my right hand man 😉
We don't really do father's and mother's day properly in our house, plus it's also his birthday next week and we cant celebrate him that often 🤣
But thank you for always being my sounding board, my voice of reason, my cheerleader and my partner.
Wouldn't want to live this life with anyone else by my side ♥️
I hope you have someone by your side just like this 😊
❤️
