Why Baby wearing?

"The close contact of carrying not only impacts on a child's development in the short and long term, it also encourages closer, healthier and happier relationships for the whole family and the communities in which they live"

(Why Carrying Matters? Born to Carry)

What do I need to bring?

You can bring your own sling or carrier fit for purpose to move whilst babywearing during the class. We have a small number of slings and carries as alternative styles to demonstrate with, or as spares to be used. If you would like to use one of our carriers in class, please email ahead so we know have enough for everyone. We’d recommend bringing water for yourselves and comfortable shoes to dance/move in.

How much is it?

With a special thanks for TNL community fund we’re now able to offer our classes half price at £4 per single session or £20 for 6 sessions booked advance in a block. We also have funding to provide free spaces for those who cannot afford it. If you would like to come but finances are a barrier at the moment, please email us!
