1/10/14 at my house in Dunboyne, Co. Meath
A sling meet is like a coffee morning with other parents/ mums-to-be, but everyone brings their slings along, and there is a babywearing consultant present with a stock of slings for you to try. If you have a new baby and you are interested in buying a sling but don’t know where to start, this meet-up is for you! It’s also great for parents of older babies who are looking for some new ideas with e.g. back carries or woven wraps, or moving from a regular size carrier to a toddler or pre-school carrier.
I also run a sling library, so all the slings below are available to rent: €7.50 per sling for two weeks. This way you can try them and see what suits you best before you go out and buy one.
Admission: free
There’s no need to book. Just come along.
