Share your superhero pictures! Carrying has accom Share your superhero pictures! Carrying has accompanied me and my children over the last 10 years. When I look back at the pictures, I remember the many feelings and stories. As I was looking through them I bumped into this one. It's blurry but it's perfect. It's my superhero photo. Alice was 16 months and Samuel nearly 6. We had just been on 4 flights to trek from London to Christchurch in New Zealand. Alice sat on my lap for most of them, and when I say sat, I really mean fidgeted. We were exhausted. Kids were so deeply asleep as we landed. So I waited for the whole plane to disembark before putting them both in slings. I grabbed all my things and then the flying crew offered to help me through the staff shortcuts. I was last off the plane and first one through customs. I got my 2 large suitcases on a trolley and off I went. I then waited for Corinne for Slingababy New Zealand adventures to begin! What's your superhero moment? We'd love for you to share them with us! [Image description: Lorette carrying 2 sleeping children. Her son who is 6 is on her back in an onbuhimo and her 17 months old daughter is on her front in a connecta. They are at the airport and you can see a brightly coloured child toy suitcase behind them] #slingababylove #slingababysuperhero
Work-life balance is always an interesting concept Work-life balance is always an interesting concept. I love my work and it's very much a part of my life I enjoy. Obviously not all parts excite me to the same extent but I really enjoy when I can get my head down and not juggle all the plates*. As my kids are spending a few hours with a loved friend, I'm trying to stay cool under the trees and do some improvements to the quality of our content. The practical parts of the consultancy course are delivered through videos and we have been working on transcribing my words so we can ensure the closed captions are accurate and can eventually be translated. What language would help you? *Anyway, back to the juggling. I recently chatted with a friend about the spinning plates analogy, with plates being things like kids, work, friends, home, etc... I don't think this analogy works for me. Plates could be carried in a neat pile... I think it's more a random collection of items needing juggling: breakable crystal glasses, slime, helium, lava, hedgehogs, knives.... Ever feel that's impossible work? Well errrr yeah! Humans should not do everything alone! We need to all focus on our strengths and lean onto others with different skillsets. Although the conditioning is strong and it's definitely a case of do what I say not what I do 🤣 but work in progress.... and eventually a blog post on this very subject.

How can it be July already!? We are carried mamma How can it be July already!? We are carried mammals and this means that what our infants biologically need is mostly being carried and breastfed. Can we help parents achieve both? The more tools we have as perinatal educators the more we can support families with their individual goals. 💕In this course we discuss all things feeding: breast, chest, bottles, supplementary nursing system, cup, syringe, human milk, donor milk, fomula milk. We talk about responsive feeding and carrying. We talk about biological needs and societal constraints. 💕And if you thought this wasn’t enough, we make sure we get you to try the 5 main types of slings for vertical and horizontal feeding, as well as bottle feeding and more!! What are you waiting for to get more tools in your toolbox?! Come and see how we can increase positive parenting outcomes 👍 [image description: Slingababy bubble reading “Next feeding and carrying advocacy course 31st of July 2021”]
