This class will teach you (and your
partner or other support person) the basics of baby carriers, including
construction and safety, and how to wear many different styles. Katy will
demonstrate wraps, slings, Asian style carriers and soft structured
carriers in a variety of positions appropriate for newborns through 4
months. You will be given an opportunity to try on carriers with a doll or
your new baby. This class is best suited for expectant parents or parents
with newborns; if you are interested in wearing an older baby, please stay
tuned for classes designed specifically for wearing the older baby and
child. Carriers will be available to purchase at the end of class, and
handouts will include a list of other local and online vendors.
