My new colleague Katie Shepherd and I both have a passion for babywearing and have been inspired by the many forms of carrying your child across the world

Our workshops have two elements the use of rebozos in pregnancy and labour and their uses to carry your baby when they arrive Katie and I are both qualified and insured professionals and our aims are to support women and their partnerrsquos to have the relaxed informed and conscious births and entrance to parenthood that we all deserve

Traditional rebozos are pieces of rectangular woven fabric that come in lengths of approximately 2 to 27 metres and normally long enough to wrap around a personrsquos body with some spare fabric at the end These time honoured and intrinsically associated garments are deeply ingrained into indigenous Mexican cultures

The rebozo which means shawl in Spanish has had many uses from being an item of clothing a blanket used for sun protection modesty in church and of course to carry your infant in Rebozos are hand woven and can include a variety of materials from cotton wool silk or rayon You can identify a rebozo from the traditional fridges attached to each end of the garment and often the ikat dyeing techniques

The thing that struck me most about these pieces of fabric was the history and sentimentality that every writer seemed to dwell on and every Mexican women seemed to honour Women are born into rebozos carried in them dressed in them married in them prepared for birth with them labour using them and are buried in them There is something deeply touching and appealing to me about the perennial uses of rebozos in a familyrsquos history We have been inspired by this to train in the uses of rebozos to bring that cultural collection of wisdom to parents in the UK

Our workshops look at bump wrapping (with stretchy wraps) labouring positions (with and without the rebozo for support) and relaxation techniques As a qualified health Visitor Katie can also offer suggestions for getting baby

into the right position and how to alleviate common issues Through a range of practical demonstrations we provide parents with the opportunity to learn how to carry their babies in rebozos alongside other slings and carriers safely and securely

The uses of rebozos in labour and delivery enable a woman to get into a natural (squatted) position to deliver her baby it can provide a great support in this position to offer a sense of weightlessness as you would get in water The rebozo can be pulled on tensing forearms which has a direct impact on relaxing thigh muscles enabling the vagina to open and baby to descend without tearing

Using a rebozo supports a womans weight in many different ways it can encourage a woman to relax her jaw having a direct impact on the sphincter muscles in the cervix and enabling dilation The beauty of a rebozo is the inclusivity for the partner the benefit of practically helping supporting and directly impacting upon delivery enabling the partner to feel in control useful and an active participant in the birthing journey

Not all births are straight forward simple or without medical intervention - the rebozo can centre a woman undergoing a medical procedure used in relaxation to help regain control of the situation and very simply it smells of you your home and can give you a sense of identity in a sterile patient environment


7



Our particular workshops have been designed to support parents from the start all the way through their journeys with the one key consistent element being the rebozo Once we have looked at a range of uses for the rebozo during labour we move on to look at how to carry your infant

Common carrying positions for infants in rebozos are one shouldered parents can be seen carrying on their front hip and back Using a simple double knot slip knot tucking or even twisting the material ends to hold the carry together For me personally these are

some of the most simple carries but so often the most effective and most satisfying

Finding a rebozo that you love is a great thing you can impregnate it with you and your families essence before the baby arrives to make a perfect receiving blanket knowing that it has helped support you through this immense transition in life and will continue to support your infant by aiding you to hold them close and keep them safe

BaBywearing amp Post-natal DePressiona story of how one amazing mum overcame her DePression

with the helP of BaBywearing

It was at my post natal check 9 weeks in that it first became apparent that something wasnrsquot quite right

lsquoAre you enjoying your babyrsquo my GP enquired Enjoying her I didnrsquot know I was supposed to be enjoying her

We were surviving We made it to the end of each day more or less intact but there was no enjoyment only panic crushing anxiety and an absolute fear of being alone with my baby

We had struggled with breastfeeding from the outset and it felt like every contact I had with my daughter only caused me pain If she fell asleep after I nursed her I was terrified to move in case she woke and I wouldnt know what to do with her When I tearfully confessed to my GP that I would walk around the car park with my baby in her pram rather than go home and be alone with her and she gently suggested I might have post-natal depression and prescribed anti-depressants

Looking back it isnrsquot that surprising that I may have been vulnerable to being as I call it now lsquoa bit postnatalishrsquo I had experienced some bouts of moderate depression in my twenties which had been helped by anti-depressants and counselling but after giving birth I was too overwhelmed by the mundane struggles of taking care of my baby painfully learning to breastfeed and the overpowering sense of responsibility that comes with being a new parent to look after my own mental health and I found the pressure unbearable Someone else in the same situation might have been fine but that is the nature of depression you dont know who it is going to bite

Unfortunately I had a bad reaction to the prescribed medication and was unable to carry on taking it so after talking with my GP we explored other approaches to help me

get better She recommended an online self-help programme created to teach cognitive behaviour therapy skills to people vulnerable to depression and anxiety (Mood Gym its self-referral free and well respected in the medical community) My only problem in accessing this programme was that the baby only seemed to be happy when she was being held in my arms

I was lucky that I had some friends who were keen baby-wearers One had lent a stretchy wrap and the other showed me how to tie it I had also been to my local sling meet so was confident in tying the wrap What hadnt occurred to me was that babywearing could be more than just a handy way of keeping my hands free whilst trying to get jobs done It turned out to be the thing that saved my sanity

With some gentle encouragement from my husband as he left for work each morning I would pop the baby into the sling and potter about doing some housework Making sure I had accomplished something useful in the morning helped me feel a little bit more in control a little bit more lsquonormalrsquo

Once the baby fell asleep I would then switch on the laptop and spend some time working on the MoodGym until she began to stir and we would continue with our day

I knew that I felt more anxious when I was home alone with the baby but had found trying to get our fancy wheels collapsed and into the car only to have to put them up again at the other end overwhelmingly stressful so again the sling was our friend I could drive to a park nature reserve or local woodland pop the baby in and walk for miles showing her trees and nature chatting about nothing and enjoying the fresh air

Babywearing was a way of being in touch with my baby in a way that didnrsquot hurt unlike breastfeeding which I was still attempting to

master and which was still causing me trouble

Carrying her didnrsquot make me anxious like setting up the buggy did and so slowly and cautiously on these walks we connected I could kiss her head and smell her new-baby smell and I learnt that she smelled good to me

I could tell her my worries and she would squeak in reply and not judge me The more time I spent with her the more I realised that she wasnt all that scary and on the whole I knew how to make her happy Eventually I realised that she was my baby I enjoyed being with her I was no longer afraid

I realised after a while that when I went to meet friends I would choose the sling over the buggy if I went for coffee the baby would stay in the sling as I chatted I started taking her to the local Sling Meet and made a new circle of friends who taught me gentle ways of parenting modelling ways of caring for children that were new to me and which have helped me as Irsquove learnt to love my own baby

I became used to her being part of my conversations part of my routine and I grew

to love including her in my life and seeing the world through her eyes I was no longer just me my job and my old identity I had a new identity that included not only being a mother but a babywearing mother

Baby wearing is now central to the way I parent my daughter and my husband have learnt these ways with me If she is grouchy we know a slingy cuddle will cheer her up if she is drowsy we can tuck her head in and help her nap When he is not at work my husband is as eager to carry her as I am Carrying her so close has meant that I am now confident to be an expert in my own child I know what she likes and can listen to and meet her needs I still love seeing the world through her eyes and sharing my life with her Now my baby is a chubby cheerful 10 month old She is busy mobile and enthusiastically communicative I am no longer scared to spend the day alone with her I know I can do it now I know I wont harm her We both still love baby-wearing and plan to carry on doing it for as long as we both carry on loving it

Optibac prObiOtics fOr babies and children

frOm birth Onwards fOr babies amp children frOm Optibac prObiOtics can be given as a natural

supplementHaving an imbalance of good and bad bacteria in the gut is thought to cause issues in digestion and immunity for infans and children in particular in

Formula-fed babies

Babies infants amp children during and after antibiotics

Infants delivered by Caesarean section

Premature infants

Babies and children with digestive problems such as colic diarrhoea

constipation and lactose intolerance

Babies amp children with allergies and skin irritations such as eczema

Children given antibiotics may develop an imbalance of good and bad bacteria in the intestines as antibiotics can deplete normal levels of good bacteria An imbalance in the gut is thought by many to manifest in the form of allergies and digestive problems in children

OptiBac Probiotics For babies amp children (For your childs health) is a natural supplement and is completely free from sugars artificial flavours amp colourings which can be found in other childrens supplements containing live cultures

At OptiBac Probiotics we specialise entirely in live cultures and only use strains of the highest quality with extensive research behind them

The types of natural bacteria that reside in an infants or childs intestines are very different from the types found in adulthood

Bifidobacterium infantis and Bifidobacterium bifidum are the dominant and most important beneficial cultures found in healthy infants and children during their early years this product contains both of these bacteria in strains which have been tested to survive stomach acidity and bile salts

This supplement contains a third type of natural bacteria Lactobacillus acidophilus Rosell-52 which has been scientifically shown to survive stomach acidity and to reach the gut alive

Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) makes this product naturally high in fibre

At OptiBac Probiotics we appreciate the importance of using various species and strains of natural bacteria - these three strains will target different areas of the gut as opposed to just one

One of Close Enough To Kisss readers tried these this is what she said

My son has been very ill since birth and had been on antibiotics for many months He has sufffered recurrent

diarrhoea and severe eczema flare-ups i was at a loss as to how to help Within

a week of taking these probiotics we had seen a difference in both these

symptoms and within a month NONE AT ALL I have gone on to purchase the adult ones too These are a must have

Slinging during the feStival SeaSon

In 1999 my best friend and I went to the Glastonbury Festival much to our surprise we loved the kids field not only did it have shower cubicles without a queue but included the most amazing things to do including a whole ship to climb on performers and crafts

I remember though seeing a family struggling over the fields with a pushchair and despite the lovely weather it looked like such hard work 15 years later festivals have evolved and there are days out and weekends to suit everyones interests What I also now know is that the best transport for your baby or child at a festival is of course a sling

So why take a sling with you to a festival this summer

Festivals whether a small family friendly day or a big crowded music weekend can involve a lot of walking Whether you are taking an infant toddler or young child they will at some point need help ndash a sling is ideal

ldquoThere is no way we could have navigated the crowds using a pram so the sling was invaluable for taking our baby across the siterdquo says Becca who took Emily to Tramlines in 2013

Children in buggies see less a sling gives your child a fantastic viewpoint and for a younger child on your front it gives them the opportunity to turn away if it is all too much When your baby or toddler are in a sling you know where they are crucial at all times

Even your big independent child feels tired at the end of the day instead of a piggyback back to the tent if they hop up in a sling youve hands free for other children bags or maybe even your partner

Anna Burrows who went to the Just So festival with her two children sums up why festivals are great for families

ldquoThe thing I love about festivals is how close it makes us feel as a family the distractions are

removed and everything is stripped back to the basics so we eat together with no TV sleep together cook over a camp fire together

It was also great to be outdoors all weekend and having activities that we enjoyed as a family and also to see how our children behaved in such a different environment was lovelyrdquo

Everything you enjoy about festivals your little one will be able to as well they will still get to experience something new and exciting with the security of being as close to a parent as they can possibly be

If you are off to a festival this year what you need to know can all be found at the brilliant wwwfestivalkidzcom

When it comes to choosing a sling find what suits you and your children best whether a ring sling for easy hip carries a soft structured carrier for simple in and out on back or front or a gorgeous wrap to hold your newborn tight and breastfeed discretely Contact your local sling library to try a selection on

With the festival season upon us its time to consider Whether

babywearing on holidayMemoirs of our 2013 Holiday to the Basque Country in France

We were flying then hiring a car and would be staying in a static caravan in a holiday village for our 10 night stay It was the end of July and the weather was due to be fairly hot

As our holiday fast approached I faced the usual dilemma that haunts all babywearing fanaticshellip What to select from the stash to take with us

There were plenty of suitable carriers I could have chosen but I was trying to be conservative and not take everything Popular carriers for hot weather are often made from a light fabric so gauze and thin linen based wraps were high on my list but in the end I selected the following three carriers

Solarweave Connecta Solarweave is a sun-protective fabric which blocks 95- 99 of the suns harmful UVA and UVB rays It is highly breathable and non-irritating even to sensitive skin The Connecta Solarweave is constructed to keep your baby cool in the heat of summer as well as offering protection from the sun Solarweve is a very strong fabric but with a soft cotton like feel It is very quick drying and is the ideal hot weather baby carrierThe Connecta is constructed fully in solarweave fabric with polyester padding in the shoulder straps and can be used at the pool or beach or in the shower It has a sleek one piece design incorporating a large sunsleeping hood that fastens with small buckles to the shoulder straps to keep your baby shaded or hold a sleeping head

The FilUpreg mesh wrap

The FilrsquoUp wrap is a soft cotton mesh wrap which does not retain the heat and makes carrying comfortable for the adult and the childIts revolutionary knitted technique means it is flexible but prevents its shape from deforming allowing it to adapt to the childs bodyThe FilUp mesh wrap feels pleasant against the skin and can be used from birth until the child weighs 15kgs (Product also available in 100 organic cotton)

Comfy Joey WATER Ring Sling The Comfy Joey WaterMesh Sling - ideal for frolicking in the water with your little - or not so little ndash one Good for short carries out of the water Comfy Joeys MeshWater Slings are amazingly thin yet supportive secure and will not slip through

the rings mouldable with a lovely drape quick drying breathable soft not scratchy has a comfortable give will not sag colour fast and washable

The Airport

For me this was a no brainer the travel friendly connecta solarweave is a god send when it comes to luggage space With my other two carriers packed in my suitacase the Connecta was folded up nice and small in my hand luggage and barely taking up any room at all Once we arrived at the airport the kids just wanted to run around as we stood in the check-in queue Full of aeroplane anticipation a slightly over excited my 25 year old needed a safe place to calm down so out came the Connecta

I rarely front carry nowadays as back carries tend to be kinder on my back however on this occasion my son needed to be lsquoclose enough to kissrsquo and so we opted the front Joab soon chilled out and once we were past check-in passport control and security checks he wanted to get back down and look at the planes through the windows Up down up downhellip this is the usual pattern with a 25 year old and the Connecta lends itself well to this

Somethng with more bulk and less compact may well have driven me around the bend The carrier was out again as we boarded the plane and I couldnrsquot help but notice those around me with similar age children checking in their strollers whilst trying to keep tabs on their child I felt rather pleased with myself as I glided onto the plane with ease

3 hours later and we arrived at Biarritz airport It was about 8pm at night and by this point Joab was totally shattered he hadnt napped all day due to the excitement and it was past his usual bed time Out came the Connecta and within minutes he was out like a light

Out amp About

For general out and about carries around the holiday village I chose to use the FilrsquoUp The weather was hot and as we walked to and from the pool Joab wanted lsquoUprsquo but was very hot and bothered I wrapped him in the FilrsquoUp totally naked and he seemed to like it and found it comfortable I loved

17



By Mish Meakin

his little naked bum in the carrier it looked so cute Fairly easy to wrap with the FilrsquoUp was a great choice It was important to have three layers of fabric as I donrsquot feel one layer would have offered enough support The FilrsquoUp is for up to 15kg my son was 13kg so he is at the heavier end of the range I chose a BWCC and it worked well The only thing I would say is that it did feel a bit lsquodiggyrsquo on my shoulders at times

The Fetersquos De Bayonne

The fecirctes de Bayonne is a festival in the Northern Basque Country in the town of Bayonne France The festival lasts 5 days and always starts the Wednesday before the first Sunday of August They are the largest festivals in France Participants dress in white and red after the colors of the city of Pamplona The festivals include musical and street performances traditional dances parades and fireworks

There are so many people taking part trying to spot someone you know is like looking at a page from lsquoWherersquos Wallyrsquo so a carrier is essential as not to lose your little one in the crowds I chose the Connecta again for this day it was a great option comfortable and out of all my carriers I had with me the most suitable colour for the theme Shopping and Emergency Babywearing

On one of the days we chose to spend the day on st jean de luz beach We drove there and had a lovely time after the beach we dumped our things in the boot of the car and decided to have a stroll around the centre It was at this moment I realised that I hadnrsquot packed a carrier but

I thought it would be fine as Joab had already napped that day and seemed lively Within fifteen minutes he was flagging all

the sun shine sea air and fun had wiped him out and he needed to be carried

I popped into a shop and bought a cheap sarong It was short not quite a size 2 and so I attempted a torso carry but going over one shoulder It wasnrsquot particularly comfortable but it did the trick and the shop assistant was so impressed she gave me a little round of applause and said lsquotres bonrsquo Crisis diverted

San Sebastian and the Ring Sling

Towards the end of our holiday we went on a day trip over the border to Spain to visit the beautiful town of San Sebastian An absolutely stunning old town with a wonderful crescent shaped beach I took the Comfy Joey water ring sling with me We spent the morning looking around the shops the aquarium the historic buildings and eateries

It was peak season and fairly busy Joab was in one of those moods where he did not want to go lsquouprsquo at all but he was hard to track in the crowds I have never been a fan of baby reins but the RS was a god sends as I lassoed my boy and used it as a make shift rein In the afternoon we spent our time on the beach and by the end of the day Joab was ready for a ring sling cuddle The comfy joey was incredibly thin and cool to wear we had used it on the beach where it got wet and it dried relatively quickly The fabric has a sheen to it and this made it prone to sliding in the rings more often than a typical woven RS but it wasnrsquot a massive issue it just meant I had to re-tighten more often than I normally would Verycomfortable and wearable a good choice for the holiday stashAll in all we had a lovely time and the carriers that I took with me all got used If I could only take one it would have been the Connecta as we used it the most during our stay but the choices are endless and letrsquos be honest most of us just canrsquot take one Happy babywearing Holidays

BaBywearing expectations

Parents quite often expect babywearing to be a magical cure for their babies they have high expectations that baby will not cry or squirm or will remain happy next to them all day

Whilst babywearing can reduce many of those things is it correct to have such expectationsSimply put no

Perhaps itrsquos true that in the beginning days babies can seem to sleep all day long in the sling bar feeding and changing Newborn babies get a huge amount of comfort and relief from being in close proximity to their caregiver sleeping for 16 -18 hours a day Using the sling can mean a lot more restful sleep for an infant Which is often what parents expect beyond this time

Past the newborn stage (beyond a month) as babies begin to see and become aware of their surroundings their sleeping patterns start to evolve and by

3 months most babies will be awake twice as much as they sleep at night but will still be sleeping up to 15 hours each day with the main bulk being at night

Which mean a good portion of awake time during the day

Sleep cycles in infants last for roughly 40-50 minutes which is 50 less than an adults with only a 20 minute stretch being deep sleep Which may explain why parents often feel exasperated when their babies only sleep for hour stretches

In between these sleep cycles babies will have many needs toileting hunger boredom pain tiredness which will mean they may not seem as happy in the sling as you would expect unless you are on the move

Movement activates a very primal part of a babies brain (the cerebellum and vestibular system) which helps to keep baby in a

calm alert state coupled with babywearing can result in a calmer baby

However itrsquos worth noting that despite this when a baby has a need they will express this the only way they know how ndash movement and crying

Developmental stages

Many babies at around 4 months will seem to become distressed when being worn they will seem to want to crane round to see the world or even refuse altogether to be worn

This can often lead a parent to think the baby needs to Front Face Out or will even discard carrying altogether

This stage will pass and its often worth experimenting with a different carrier or tying method

For babies who are craning round a hip carry may be beneficial or a high back carry so they have better access to their surroundings

For babies that seem to be disliking being worn a good idea is to keep wearing for short journeys where you can use the babyrsquos natural love of movement to keep them calm and alert

Reading Cues

Sometimes no matter what you do baby seems upset so itrsquos a good idea to try to understand what is wrong Do they need changing Do they need feeding Are they wanting to play Sometimes the sling is just not what they want

Just like you or I a baby knows what it wants and will vocalise or show you this which doesnrsquot mean they no longer want to be carried but perhaps a change is needed

So experiment perhaps changing sling or tying method or even lowering expectations on what a sling can achieve will help all round for you both to enjoy babywearing

Ask LoretteDear Lorette Lorette i am finding when i wrap my 8 week old in a stretch wrap (because i am small and have to wrap it round me several times) it digs into my hips and stomach any tips to avoid thing Heidi

Hi Heidi stretch wrap get their strength when they are bunched To avoid the diggy feel try spreading it around your hips You will find it easier if you tie your knot by wrapping the inner layer first around you whilst holding to the top edge only Then wrap the outer layer again holding with the top edge only Another option that you have is to shorten your wrap by cutting the excess off The fabric wont fray so no need for hemming It is likely to affect the resale value though Good Luck

Dear Lorette I have a limited budget and would like a carrier that not only suits me and my partner but i can use for both my 12 weeks old son and my 3 yr old daughter what are my options Grace

Hi Grace there are several options available to you The first one is a woven wrap this would be very versatile and you may need to vary the carry between you and your husband Another option would be a podeagi with straps long enough for both you and your husband There are also brands of meitai that are very adjustable like the evolubulle If you want something more structured there are 3 buckle carriers I can think of that may fit the bill the emeibaby the kibi or the buzzidil You could also try a ring sling but many users find that carrying a 3 year old for long periods of time can be uncomfortable This is all very personal Many options The best one being the one you will want to use

Dear Lorette I have hypermobility can i still babywear and what would you recommend i should look at buying Cynthia

Hi Cynthia if hypermobility is your only issue then yes you could carry I wouldnt recommend anything over anything else but I would advise you find your local carrying consultant who will be able to guide you in terms of adjusting tying techniques so that you find solutions that work for you I hope this helps

In this series we will be exploring some of the different wrapping methods and how it is possible to adapt each carry to your preferences Wrapping is an art and taking time to fully explore different carrying methods they can make all the difference in the amount of enjoymment and comfort you and your baby achieve when using a wrap

How to tie a Double HammockThe double hammock is a carry which became popular very quickly in 2007 it is attributed to JPMBB and made it to woven wraps as many babywearers found that it was an easy to use comfortable back

carry with a toddler Two hammocks of fabric keep your child seated nicely on your back and the pass across your chest gives extra support as well as showing off your pretty wrap

To tie a double hammock you do not start at the centre of the wrap depending where you want to tie your knot I start one arm length to the right of the centre mark which allows me to tie at my side It is

worth your time playing around with your perfect spot to start

There are many ways to get your child on your back depending on your ability and your childs age Once your child is on your back you can get started creating your hammocks The first hammock is created by keeping the shorter of the two passes over your shoulder and moving the other side to under your arm this side then comes to the front to form the pass over your chest The chest pass

then goes back under your other arm to form the second hammock over your child

Many babywearers find that it helps to tighten both passes constantly whilst tying the sling and then pulling both passes upwards at this stage to pull out any slack With each pass coming over the

shoulder they then each go to the back on that side over the first leg and under the second to come together at the side or the front to be tied

Double Hammock can truly feel as a weightless carry and it is highly rated for longer distance or time carrying of toddlers On the flip side it is not an easy quick up and down carry and if you have some

slack in any of the passes you will feel it as you walk

Variations on the Double Hammock include

Double Hammock tied under bum

Double Hammock tied at the shoulder

Wriggle-proof Double Hammock

Double Hammock Rebozo

Double Hammock Torso Carry

Inverted Double Hammock

How To Start a Sling Library

Where do you go if you want to hire books

The library

So why canrsquot the same principle be applied to slings and baby carriers Well it can

What is a sling library

Quite simply it is a place to hire slings and baby carriers

Some people hire lots of different slings in their pursuit of the right one before buying their own others come because they canrsquot get the sling they own to work for them Others come because they have a special event such as a wedding or baptism

All I know is that there is no particular group of people who use my sling library ndash each session brings a different set of mums dads and even grandparents

I set up the North East Sling Library (wwwnortheastslinglibrarycouk) in Durham United Kingdom in July 2011 because there was a big gap We had no sling meets or babywearing groups local to us and the only slings available to actually lsquolook atrsquo were in mainstream high street shops and Durham with its Norman Castle Cathedral and

cobbled streets is not very buggy friendly It had taken me a long time to find slings that worked for us I wanted to be able to help others find the one right for them

Can anyone set up a sling library How do you do it

Yes A sling library can be as big or small as you want it to be It can meet when and where you want it to You choose how long to hire slings out for whether you want to charge hire fees take deposits etc It is your library there are no set rules

I charge a small hire fee and ask for a refundable deposit equivalent to buying a replacement in the event of damage but other libraries charge a standard deposit or you pay to join the library and then can hire for free or reduced rates The simple rule is do what works for you and your library

The NE Sling Library now has a stock of 140 slings and it continues to grow I reinvest thehire fees to buy more slings for the library and try to match user requests to the slings we buy We have slings suitable for carrying premature babies to pre-schooler We have a mix of different carriers and find Asian Based Carriers are the most popular

When I first set the library up it did cost me a

27



lot of money and we started with just 4 slings from my own stash I approached as many vendors and distributors as I could possibly think of some donated slings others offered reduced prices and some did not reply

In the early days the knock backs were hard because I knew there was no way I could finance it all by myself but when someone says yes it makes it worth the time spent writing letters and emails I made a website using a free service and I added all donations to a lsquothanks and contributorsrsquo page as recognition to their generousity

I also use Facebook and Twitter to interact with different people and groups I also try to follow and lsquolikersquo them too and provide updates on when slings have been hired I also made the decision to invest in some business cards and postcards which I have on me whenever I am using a sling and try to advertise wherever I can think of I put posters up in childrenrsquos centres day nurseries etc I have found word of mouth plays a big part in getting people to come to the library

Traditionally babywearing has been a skill passed from mum to daughter person to person and so on It is a skill which has been dying but which sling libraries and the internet are helping to continue Technically you do not require any specific training to start a library but having it does make life easier There are several options for training peer to peer support and full consultancy

By having completed training schemes you become eligible to apply for professional liability insurance There are several schemes available and are organised by different groups

Although there is no requirement for training sling libraries that take a fee even if they make no income must make a tax return and should have public liability insurance as a bare minimum

The law also means that you need to meet The Sale of Goods Act 1979 amp Supply of Goods amp Services Act 1982 and The Consumer Protection Act 1987 No set of

terms and conditions or waivers remove the need to meet these criteria So it is important to remember this when thinking about setting up a library If you have paid employees working for library you will require Employers Liability Insurance also however the number of libraries this applies to will be very small and it is not required if your library is staffed by volunteers

I decided that I wanted to also have some form of qualification so decided to take a Babywearing Consultants Course I trained with Trageschule UK (wwwtrageschulecouk) School of Babywearing (wwwbabywearinguk) and most recently Slingababy (wwwslingababycouk) I also choose to join the British Association of Babywearing Instructors - (BABI) wwwbabimeuk

There are other schools in the UK Europe and the USA Most sling libraries have their own Terms and Conditions which we ask users to say they have read and sign It is also important to remember that you may need to declare your income for tax purposes even if you are not for profit

Since starting the North East Sling Library I have helped countless families to carry their children It does take up a lot of my time but I do it because I enjoy it I love ldquohelping the North East Carry their babies big and smallrdquo

babywearing bags

So your stash is sorted yoursquove got your dream wrap your perfect ring sling the buckles yoursquove always dreamed of and yoursquove even tried out that pod you always wondered about What next Accessories

There are babywearing accessories Do you really NEED a babywearing bag and if so where to find one and what to look for

Why would I need a special bag

For a lot of us a babywearing bag might seem like a bit of a superfluous extra especially if we are front carrying which means we can probably use a standard backpack

But if you are back carrying andor wearing regularly or for extended periods you may find a purpose designed babywearing bag the perfect addition to

your stash

When my older boy started nursery aged 3 my youngest was just 18 months old and definitely not up to walking for extended periods of time I donrsquot have a car and public transport timings meant I was out all afternoon with him between nursery drop off and pick up

I was back carrying him and although my existing messenger back had been doing me just fine up until that point now I was carrying him for 4-5 hours off and on over an afternoon the hard webbing strap was starting to get painful

I wasnrsquot sure I would be able to keep on carrying him and started eyeing up the pushchair ruefully Then I did a little research and found out about babywearing bags

29



So what exactly is a lsquobabywearingrsquo bag

Essentially it is a bag with long soft wide fabric straps similar to those on a wrap conversion carrier

These soft straps allow you to wear the bag in many different positions front back rucksack style and have them over or under your child without it being uncomfortable for them or you The bag is usually soft and semi-structured too for even more comfort

Some babywearing bags are converted from woven wrap fabric making them a way to have a bit of your favourite wrap on show but others are made of standard fabrics (mine is showerproof waxed cotton) with many WAHM ones being customised with appliques or other decoration

As the bags are to allow you to cart everything around that you need during a sprog-toting session they will often have internal pockets to hold nappies drinks toys clips for babywearing mirrors or toys and also possibly be big enough to put a folded up carrier in

But there are diminutive versions which can clip around a waist strap or a chest pass or hang on your wrist and will carry just your keys wallet and phone and maybe a sneaky chocolate bar and a packet of wipes too

The straps are the defining feature of the full size bags and come in a few of varieties One style is two wide straps that can be worn and tied in a wrapmai tai fashion

The other has one strap with sling rings attached and then other longer strap which can be looped through them and adjusted to suit just as you would a ring sling Or some bags have a combination of these with two long straps and rings attached to the bag on each side

Irsquom sold so how do I get one

There are a wealth of options from instock bags to custom makes SlingyRoo are an in-stock option and are made from a range of Girasol woven wraps

And some of the names you might be familiar with for wrap conversions wrap chopping and ring slings make them too including Chunkle-Munkle and Geeky Sweetheart

Other companies focus purely on bags some with in stock options as well as custom slots such as Tawak Kangala and Purple Gazelle And there are many many more once you start to search online and ask around

Can I make one myself

If you are handy with a sewing machine or can strong-arm a friend who is then there are also DIY options

OnBag and Geeky Sweetheart both provide patterns and instructions that will allow you to make your own bag which give you the option of customising it to your exact needs for a fraction of the cost

I initially experimented by cutting off the webbing strap of my existing bag and replacing it with a woven scarf just knotted together

The comfort difference was amazing even though Irsquod used a flimsy scarf If you have a bag where this is possible then this is a good lo-fi way of having your own babywearing bag for little outlay So long as you donrsquot mind chopping your bag up

What if I have more stuff than will fit in a standard messenger size babywearing bag

Well of course you can always go for the pull along option Standard shopping carts are great for a big shop whilst babywearing coming in all manner of contemporary fabrics They are not your average grannyrsquos shopping cart

ruleS for SAFE babywearing KEEP YOUR BABY CLOSE AND KEEP YOUR BABY SAFE

TIGHT

IN VIEW AT ALL TIMES

CLOSE ENOUGH TO KISS

KEEP CHIN OFF THE CHEST

SUPPORTED BACK

promotes bonding and a secure attachment between you and your baby

your baby is able to take in its surroundings stimulating brain growth

the carriers allow the dadspartnerscare givers in helping to calm and relax the baby

a baby sling supports the natural development of your babyrsquos spine and hips

SLINGS AND CARRIERS SHOULD BE TIGHT ENOUGH TO HUG YOUR BABY CLOSE TO YOU AS THIS WILL BE MOST COMFORTABLE FOR YOU BOTH

TIGHT


A BABY SHOULD NEVER BE CURLED SO THEIR CHIN IS

FORCED ONTO THEIR CHEST AS THIS CAN RESTRICT THEIR

BREATHING

50LESS FUSS AND CRYING WHEN CARRIED FOR 3 HOURS OR MORE A DAY

YOUR BABYrsquoS HEAD SHOULD BE AS CLOSE TO YOUR CHIN AS COMFORTABLE BY TIPPING YOUR HEAD FORWARD YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO KISS YOUR BABY ON THE HEAD OR

FOREHEAD


IN AN UPRIGHT CARRY A BABY SHOULD BE HELD COMFORTABLY CLOSE TO THE WEARER SO THEIR BACK IS SUPPORTED IN ITS NATURAL POSITION AND THEIR TUMMY AND CHEST ARE AGAINST YOU IF A SLING IS TOO LOOSE THEY CAN SLUMP WHICH CAN PARTIALLY CLOSE THEIR AIRWAY

s u p p o r t e d b a c k

THIS CAN BE TESTED BY PLACING A HAND ON YOUR BABYrsquoS BACK AND

PRESSING GENTLY - THEY SHOULD NOT UNCURL OR MOVE CLOSER TO YOU

YOU SHOULD ALWAYS BE ABLE TO SEE YOUR BABYrsquoS FACE BY SIMPLY GLANCING DOWN THE FABRIC OF A SLING OR CARRIERSHOULD NOT CLOSE AROUND THEM SO YOU HAVE TO OPEN IT TO CHECK ONTHEM

In View At All Times

IF YOU CHOOSE TO CARRY IN A CRADLE POSITION YOUR BABY SHOULD FACE UPWARDS AND NOT BE TURNED IN

GONE ARE the days of lsquowardrobe on wheelsrsquo or lsquoonly teachers drive thosersquo jokes Volvo now has some seriously stylish cars in its stable - and the V40 is one of them

The V40 Cross Country combines class-leading driving dynamics interior comfort and a rugged personality with low emissions impressive fuel economy and pioneering safety technology

StartStop is fitted as standard across the range together with Bluetooth hands-free communication and wireless music playing plus City Safety auto-braking technology and the V40s world-first pedestrian airbag The Cross Country is also the only car in its class to be available with Pedestrian Detection technology

It has a more rugged style than the standard V40 and is distinct to the sports styling of the R-Design model It features a number of unique details which include silver roof rails

contrasting front bumper honeycomb mesh grille and upright day-running lights sculpted sills and contrasting rear bumper with integrated skid plate

In D2 SE Powershift guise the 1560cc four-cylinder eight valve oil-burner delivers 113bhp with 62mph from standstill arriving in a conservative 121 seconds However the relatively wide car is planted well on the road and takes corners with little body lean The diesel rattle is barely noticeable even on start up and the seats are ultra supportive on long commutes

The V40 provides enough space for four-up or five if you have two adults in the front and three small children in the rear on booster seats The boot although not massive is decent enough to shove in everything a young family might need ndash from a weekrsquos worth of shopping to a couple of baby buggies and all the

gear that goes with young kids

Of course safety is never an issue with Volvo - and the V40 is no different It is one of the safest cars in its class having achieved high scores recorded by EuroNCAP in crash tests

And as you might expect with a diesel turbo the pound24805 D2 Cross Country SE Powershift is an efficient motor On average it can return up to 689mpg so it certainly endorses

Volvorsquos thinking that it ldquooffers the solution for drivers who want a premium vehicle experience with low emissions and low running costs but who dont want to sacrifice equipment styling or safety features

Put simply the V40 delivers unprecedented choice in the premium hatchback sector without compromise Itrsquos a great car not the cheapest ndash but you get what you pay for - usually

LittLe FeLLows Review

Little Fellows - Twillght Rainbow80 Cotton 20 Linen

Plain WeaveWeight 280 grmsm

2

Little Fellows was started on 2013 the brainchild of Lisa Fellows she describes her company as Quintessentially English

These beautiful handwoven wraps are sourced and made within the EU and have a very individual look to them each wrap has a limited number in that style which makes them highly sought after and a must have for those wrap addicts

At first glance the Twillight Rainbow wrap looks like multi coloured hessian due the way its woven I have never seen a wrap weaved in this manner and wasnt sure if i would like it although the colours were amazing rainbow is right up my street and i adore black in carriers

The proof however was in the wearing we had a longer wrap so it was heavy due to the bulk but it was uber cool to wear due to the weave which allowed a good amount of air flow so a great option for warmer weather

I tried a simple ruck with my 2 year old and was amazed at the confort and level of support it gave us Having sensitive shoulders a ruck often feels uncomfortable but the linen in the warp (rather than the weft) seemed to help support him more appropriatelyWe also tried a Re-inforced Ruck and Double Hammock i found both to be even more supportive due to the multi layers

The wrap on looks stunning the black makes the rainbow really POP and the position of the rainbow means that you dont lose any of its impact when wrapping

The wrap is very grippy so can be harder to tighten so pehaps isnt a wrap for the novice but those more

46



47



established will appreciate the grip The wrap was super floppy and soft although i did worry i would snag the wrap due to the weave It is prone to thread shifting so needs to be taken care of to ensure this doesnt happen

Price wise as you would expect from handwoven its expensive but you do get what you pay for and in comparison to some other handwoven wraps its not rediculously expensive and for what you get ( handwoven in Britian time care and limited amount of that pattern) its a steal and a small price to pay for beauty

My overall thoughts for this wrap is i love it and feel quite sad i am at the end of my wrapping days as i would purchase this in a heart beat Its a classic beauty and lovely to wrap with

kiddicare in Bristol join the babywearing

revolution

In September 2013 I was lucky enough to have Kiddicare at Cribbs Causeway Bristol became the new home for the Avon and Bristol Sling Meet and our workshops (which are run by Carry Me Slings) It has been a wonderful location for our sling meet providing a perfect venue and great facilities

My daughter was particularly excited to see a toilet just her size next to mineInitially I wasnrsquot sure how such a mainstream venue like Kiddicare would suit our sling meet

I remember walking around and looking at the slings and carriers they had on sale and being unintentionally put off by the amount of narrow based carriers there were But at the same time finding hope with the unusual supply for such a high street giant of in my opinion very good carriers indeed The staff from day one have all been very helpful and they have made our sling meet feel very at home

The room we use is their Event Room which Kiddicare use to put on all range of community events and parenting classes For this purpose it is a well-equipped space with lots of room and a supply of seating transportable soft flooring toys and accessories (and having a coffee shop nearby doesnrsquot go amiss)

It became clear to me that Kiddicare were keen to work with community groups and promote positive parenting agendas As one of Kiddicares promises is to have a specialist in each area of equipment they stock I approached the team to find out who the specialist was in their babywearing section

to find out that the specialists were the car seat specialists As a babywearing professional I was keen to be able to assist Kiddicare optimise their promise to the parents that come through their door and so our partnership arose

I am now working as Kiddicares onsite Babywearing Specialist In the local Bristol store we have information up by all the slings and carriers so that parents who would like help with what to choose and how to use it can either come straight to me or contact me

I have had a huge amount of parents walk into the sling meet straight from the store with one particular vision for carrying their child and due to the expansive collection of carriers and slings we have in the library they can then get a much better feel for what will really suit them and their family

In my experience to date parents are walking away feeling confident that they choose the right carrier and have been supported with professional specialist guidance which allows for a happy healthy start to babywearing

It has proved to be a fantastic venue and a great partnership which will hopefully continue

New cotton products from skin-friendly Organyc

Cotton pleats and squares suitable for both mother and baby

Organic cotton brand Organyc has announced the launch of two new baby-friendly products in its personal

care and hygiene range Organycrsquos products are free from chlorine and harsh chemicals and the 100

organic cotton used in the range is grown without the use of pesticides

The first new Organyc product to be launched is the super soft organic Cotton Squares (RRP pound399 for 60 squares) which are suitable for sensitive skin and

particularly well suited to cleaning babiesrsquo delicate skin

The squares which are made from 100 organic cotton are thick and durable and

can be used with baby oil water and other cleansing products They are embossed

on one side for gentle yet deep cleansing which means they are also perfect for

mums to use as part of their everyday beauty regime Each square is a generous

size meaning they wipe away traces of dirt with ease

Also new from Organyc is Cotton Pleats (RRP pound299 for 100g) perfect for daily face and body care for

both mother and baby As with all Organyc products the pleat is made using 100 organic cotton and is

suitable for sensitive skin

The pleat is amazingly soft and can be easily perforated to form the perfect size

cotton care product to suit your requirements whether itrsquos cleaning babyrsquos

bottom during a nappy change or using it as part of your morning face care

routine

Graeme Hume from Organyc says ldquoThe new Organyc Cotton Squares and

Cotton Pleats are an ideal choice for mums who prefer to avoid harsh chemicals

in personal care products Because theyrsquore super soft they are comfortable to

use whilst providing excellent cleansing for skin for mum and baby and even

dads toordquo

Both the Organyc Cotton Squares and Cotton Pleats are certified organic by

ECOCERT and the packaging used is fully biodegradable and compostable

A Word From The Editor

With summer truly upon us we can enjoy the outdoors whilst carrying our children and admire its flowering splendour once again With the better weather comes the festival season and wearing in the warmer weather

read all about babywearing and festivals on page 13 and babywearing on holiday on page 16

July and August bring some wonderful babywearing events In July from 25-27 we have Big Camp hosted by Natural Mamarsquos This is the 4th year of big camp and is likely to be just as popular as in previous years you will be hard to find an event that has so many babywearing families in close proximity its exciting to see

Then in August from 18th ndash 20th there will be the equally exciting Sling Dadrsquos Family Camp this is the first event for the organisation and will be a weekend of fun with a emphasis on encouraging more dadrsquos to

babywear

Also in July The School of Babywearing will be hosting a 2 day workshop by babywearing expert Dr Evelin Kirkilionis aimed at babywearing educators Dr Kirkilionis will be explaining The importance of evolutionary

history and how it affects infants today the healthy aspects of babywearing innate and learned behaviour special adaptions of carrying a baby the importance of carrying to parent and child tips and facts on tying techniques As well as promoting her upcoming babywearing book A Baby Wants to be Carried which is

released in August and will be reviewed in issue 7

For those of you who are interested in becoming a sling librarian Rachel Coy from The North East sling library has put together some helpful ways you can start your own local sling library on page 26

And on page 30 check out the images from Norwich Sling Libraries Babywearing catwalk they held in April

Our next issue will be out in September where we will be gearing up for International babywearing Week 2014 which is looking to be the most successful year EVER for babywearing promotion

I hope you enjoy issue six

If you would like to contribute to our magazine in any way please contact infocloseenoughtokisscouk

Enjoy x
