Such thorough, thoughtfully put-together course. As an attendee I constantly felt both welcome and very clear on what to expect and what was expected of me during each part.

The course was amazing. I had been debating about doing it for a long time but never got around to it. Then a new course date came up that suited and I just went ahead and booked in. I am so glad I did! And, I cannot believe it took me so long to do it! What an amazing experience! If you are too wondering if you should do it, do it! You won’t be disappointed.

This wasn't just a babywearing consultancy course - it was so much more! She covered the holistic aspects of baby development, babywearing and the wider societal elements of our role. I came away from the course feeling not only confident in a range of carries and in how to support others, but also a wide range of knowledge and understanding about the dynamic between consultant, baby and carer. At every stage, Lorette was incredibly considerate of our needs and individual circumstances. The course was inclusive and adapted to our pace and needs throughout.

Enriching experience! Perfect training for those who want to scale up their passion for babywearing...

My experience on the slingababy consultancy course has been fantastic. Lorette created such a welcoming environment where I could learn while also doing what I needed to do to look after my 4 month old. She was very flexible and accommodating and I never felt like a burden. Having videos available to watch afterwards, as well as the opportunity to re-attend in the future meant to could do the course now and not stress about bits I didn’t take in, something I’d find valuable even if I wasn’t juggling a baby. The course contained so much information but in an accessible way. Lorette always welcomed questions while also encouraging you to find the answers through the work. I had a wonderful 4 days and look forward to further learning, exploring and playing.

I was already a trained and practicing babywearing consultant with another school, and so attended the course for CPD reasons. I was a bit worried it would feel like going over old ground, but I couldn't have been more wrong. I gained so much from the four days. It wasn't just practical things like innovative tweaks I can make to how I teach specific skills, and a refresh on the fundamentals - it pushed me to delve into my whole approach, how it aligns with my ethos, and the impact it can have. I came home tired, but excited to weave new insights into the fabric of my exisiting practice. It was valuable personally as well as professionally, and felt like a celebration of the value and importance of what we do.

Lorette is fantastic, so calm, understanding & supportive. She has such a gentle approach and talks about everything in a really lovely way. The course was very informative, with plenty of time for opinions and concerns to be discussed. I have come away feeling much more confident and excited to put what I've learnt into practice! A huge Thank You!

Lorette has such a beautiful energy and way of sharing her knowledge. The course is delivered in such a thoughtful way, and I was incredibly inspired by the additional skills and thought processes she included that I didn't expect to be covered! Will 100% be back for my consultant training as the peer supporter course completely exceeded my expectations!

The course was delivered in such a great way that really helped me to think about how I would respond in real life situations, which is really confidence boosting.

 

Lorette’s knowledge is incredibly valuable. She creates a welcoming space where everyone feels included, regardless of their background or experience. Her passion for sharing her expertise makes babywearing more accessible to all. This course is perfect for doulas, healthcare professionals, caregivers, active babywearers, and even companies that sell or produce baby carriers. Lorette genuinely wants everyone to learn, and her generous way of teaching reflects that beautifully.

Thank you so much for all the wisdom and love sharing during this course.
It made me have a lot of aha moments and I am looking forward to share the knowledge you get during this course to anybody who comes and ask.
It covers a variety of subjects and Lorette makes it fun to learn.
The videos shared are really helpful to learn afterwards at your own pace and the facebook group makes it easy to look up any faq.

The course was amazing! It gave me so many new ideas on how I could help people with their babywearing journey. I only wish I had done it years ago. Lorette is so good at her job, she has a real knack for putting people at ease and a really great teaching style. If you're considering a slingababy course I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Do it, you'll learn a lot!

I felt very comfortable to talk and share my experiences and feelings!

I had my son with me he was poorly and not happy but everyone on the course was very reassuring and patient with us!

I feel positively more confident.

Easily accessible and valuable course. Very interesting and thought provoking content. The practical parts were challenging, in a good way. The space was a judgement free zone and we were able to come together to explore the issues raised. Thank you, Lorette, for sharing your knowledge.

I highly recommend this course, for those in the worlds of infant feeding and baby carrying, and for parents. The practical skills gained are invaluable, but perhaps even more remarkable about this course is the inspiration to teach and advocate. There is so much for me to think over from this course - I will be using the ideas for years to come!

I felt so incredibly welcomed and comfortable in the space you created. I never felt judged or scared to say something wrong. It was a safe space to feed my baby when they needed, pop off if needed and eat when needed. There was room for different opinions and discussion. As a queer nonbinary person I particularly appreciated the use of inclusive language throughout.

My mind was blown! The course was a lot more analytical and critical thinking than I anticipated. It took me a couple of days to process, after finishing the course. 1000% worth it. Not only was I made to feel welcome, I was given the space to have my own 'penny drop' moments. All my needs were considered and nothing was an issue.

Thank you Lorette for the amazing day that I got to spend with you soaking up all that knowledge and playfulness that you bring into this course! I’m very grateful to start my journey in this community.

Lorette's experience as a Trainer really shines through - not only in her ability to share her sling & carrying knowledge, but also as a facilitator of learning & of working with groups of people.

This was an intense & thorough day course, full of discussion, reflection, listening & learning. There were many advantages to it being online, which for me included no travel & less time away from my family - however, I do look forward to the prospect of possibly repeating the course in person!

It was not only Slingababy's excellent reputation that drew me to this course but also their flexibility regarding payment & what might happen if I couldn't attend last minute (I'm a Doula currently on-call) that made it an easy decision to book & I'm so glad I did.

Thank you Lorette & Team

Loved the feeling of community and trust. How to create a community across oceans. Thankyou for connecting me to a whole world of people with one shared goal.

For me attending this course was the achievement of a dream (since my baby was born 4years ago and I strated babywering).

The Course is very well organized, there are no dead or impossible tasks.

Lorette is an excellent communicator, who knows a lot about babywearing but not only. The interconnection between the various themes of the daily life of a family with babies/children (for example: breastfeeding) is very important, as babywearing does not happen isolated in our lives.

The contents are very clear and accessible and the possibility of reviewing the videos and participating in future courses to refresh the information is simply very good in terms of monitoring and the possibility of evolution.

Even at distance, but we feel welcome and respected.

I recommend Slingababy at 10 000%

Even with the language barrier (sometimes I felt I didn't have enough vocabulary or didn't know how to express myself), it was clear from the start that there would be no judgments about it and the communication always flowed.
