Babywearing Fit Check in Home

$125.00

Do you know how to use your babywearing item, but you have questions about the fit of your baby carrier, wrap, or sling? Do you need help troubleshooting a concern you have with the fit of your carrier, wrap, or sling? Are you an experienced babywearer and using a new carrier, wrap, or sling (or a new baby) isn't going as smoothly as you'd like? A fit check may be what you need!

This service provides a professional babywearing fit check in the comfort of your home for one or two babywearing items you are actively using to wear your baby. We can help with the fit of many items including but not limited to:

Ring Slings
Buckle Carriers
Wraps
Meh Dais
Hybrid options

After traveling to your home, we will spend 60 minutes with you, your baby's caregivers and your baby to help you get a good fit with your babywearing items. Whether you want help with carrier set-up and features, fit help for you or your baby, or questions answered about keeping your baby snugged up close, this consult is ideal for someone who feels confident in babywearing yet still needs the help of a professional.

Usually, this consult is broken up into three parts for each item:

You put your baby carriers, wraps, and slings on for the consultant to assess.
Consultant gives tips or teaches techniques, typically using a demonstration doll and providing a demonstration doll for the caregivers.
After practicing techniques with a demonstration doll, the caregivers try the technique with the baby with assistance from the consultant.

To get the most from your consult, be sure to complete the Consult Questionnaire at least 72 hours before your scheduled appointment. In addition, the following is ideal:

Baby Carriers, wraps or slings you own should be ready to use
Quiet environment free of distractions
Full-length mirror nearby
Ideally, someone to care for your baby during the instructional learning time of the consult
