Reposted from @sherenfahmi -BABYWEARING FOR NIQABI WOMAN-

Babywearing Consultancy Course with @slingababy day 3!

Today one of the participant asking me to share about how to babywearing in niqab / veil, in case they meet a niqabi client so they can give an advice.

And I'm so happy to share 👏👏
Actually every country has different culture about the hijab / niqab. Me, in Indonesia, we as a niqabi woman usually use 2 pieces of clothes, a long hijab and a dress. In middle east, they use onepiece clothes that covered from head to toe. In europe, I saw many niqabi woman using same onepiece clothes like in middle east, but they also use two pieces clothes like me, with a specific model of a hijab that called as "french hijab" (slide 3) and a dress.

I have all type of hijab, an overhead (one piece) hijab, a french hijab. In my opinion it seems impossible to babywear in overhead hijab because it hard to put up and down the baby. but it's possible if we use a french hijab with a zip that will make a hole so baby's had can be show up (slide 4). So cute, they even had a name for it "Ummi Zipper" 😍

Special thanks to @odeladellas who made a special hijab for me, luckily I had one so I can showing it to my friends at the course.

Cr to tasnim collection.

4 days ago, I asked you how many humans were part of the Slingababy hug.
Someone said 352, someone said 1875, a lot of you were between these numbers….. You may have looked through older posts. You may have checked the Facebook groups. There are some overlaps and some missing people.

The last 8.5 years, we have trained 687 carrying consultants, 134 carrying peer supporters, 131 feeding and carrying advocates and 5 breastfeeding peer supporters.
This does not add up to 957 but to 862, as many of you have taken multiple courses!

So congratulations to Naomi Bloomer for being the closest with a guess at 850! You have won yourself a 10% voucher to use on one of our courses.

Our next consultancy course starts on Friday 22nd

Our next consultancy course starts on Friday 22nd October. We love you to join us.

The long awaited course for advanced stretchy wrap

The long awaited course for advanced stretchy wrap skills has arrived!

If you want to get your stretchy wrap teachings to the next level, this course is for you!
The Advanced Stretchy Wrap course is designed to support baby-carrying professionals. It is beneficial for baby-carrying consultants but also for doulas, antenatal course providers and health care professionals.
It aims to provide you with the tools to get the most out of your stretchy wraps so you can support families both in the early stages of parenthood and also for the first couple of years.

From optimising your pre-tie to going free style with wrapping around, from the standard front carries to hip and back carries, from narrow one-way to super stretchy two-way wraps, we will cover anything you need to know. We will talk safety and risk assessment, we will explore various positions, we will debunk some myths, and all this through the usual Slingababy ethos!

The good news: this new course is currently available in-person!
We will work towards a remote version but for now you are going to need to either come to the first ever course in Coventry in January, or get groups together, just how we used to do.

All information about the course can be found here:

There is a question we hear frequently and we thought you would like to know our answer:

“I am very nervous/anxious about new environments. Can you help?”

At Slingababy, we understand about the diversity of humans who come through our doors. We have had many anxious students. We have also worked with many neurodiverse people. We want to work with you to put you at ease. We can give you as much detail as you need before the course takes place. We can talk to you through a means that works for you.
One key component to our teaching is consent. We will always ensure you are happy with what is offered to you and you can opt out of any part. If there is anything we can do for you, please do let us know and we will try to accommodate you to the best of our abilities.

For those of you who have trained with us, do you remember being nervous before the course? I would love to hear about your experiences
