Babywearing is the act of carrying your baby/toddler in a soft carrier.
In the babywearing class, I will go over the following: ring sling, pouch, mei tai or ABC and wrap. In Oklahoma City, it is very hard to find these types of carriers. Most of them have to be ordered over the internet. My class will show you each carrier, the different ways you can use the carriers and you'll even get to try them on! This helps you find out which works best for your situation, especially before you spend money on a carrier that may or may not work for you.
I started teaching babywearing classes in August 2006. I now hold classes once a month at Heaven Sent Birth Center, every other month in Edmond and also do private classes for mom's groups and childbirth educators. The class costs $5 to attend and usually lasts around 2 hours. To sign up for a class, simply shoot me an email or give me a call. Payment for class can be made via Paypal, or in person at the class.
I have been babywearing since August 2002 and have found that there are so many options to wearing your child! Sometimes this new "world" can be overwhelming, but never fear! I love to help new babywearers!
I do sell a few gently used carriers and new carriers that I make. With carriers costing $45 or below, it's a cheap and easy way to get your foot in the babywearing door. If you know what type you'd like or want to try a new one, I can hook you up with what I have! My stash is constantly changing. Should you like a custom carrier made, please email me or call me for custom prices and wait time. If you have any questions, please call me at 405.773.4333 or email me.
**PLEASE NOTE**
Carriers that have been ordered and are unpaid for MUST be picked up within 2 weeks of my contacting you. If no arrangements are made, the carrier WILL BE sold.
Below you can pay for the class via Paypal and I've also added some babywearing pictures.
~ I took one of Piper's classes when my fourth was a newborn. I wish I would have taken one when the first was a newborn! This is absolutely a 'must attend' class for anyone that has a baby or is planning more!
I thought, "I have four kids, I have a sling, what more could I really need to know?" Boy, was I ever wrong. I learned so much about different methods, slings, wraps and carriers.
You will learn how to use a wrap, different kinds of slings and get to try them all out. And they aren't just for infants!
Piper is sweet, funny and very easy to talk to. She covers a ton of material and answers any questions you might have.

~ Piper, I love you. . .Reed is having a rough go of teething and is not laying down for his nap. Luckily, I have a wonderful sling and he is able to rest in that while I get some things done. You are saving my back and my sanity. Thank you. It was easy to take him out of it while he was asleep and easy to put it on and him in correctly while he was asleep on me.
