Babywearing

Duration : 2h30 – 70€ (120€ / couple)

language EN (FR & ES upon request)

 

The workshop is open to parents of small children and expecting families.

On this two hour long workshop you will:

• Discover the bases of ergonomic babywearing

• Learn the keys to carry your children in all safety

• Belen will introduce the different types of carriers (stretchy and woven wraps, ringslings, and soft structured carriers) and explain their differences

• Then she will demonstrate the utilisation of every type of carrier for front and/or hip carrying

• And finally every parent will try on the carrier(s) of their choice, either with their own child or with a demo doll (or both!). Belen will help them, make small remarks, and give advice to improve the utilisation and increase the confort, get a good fit, etc.

   

Participants are also welcome to bring their own carriers, if they already have some, to try on during the practical part of the workshop.

In a small group, Belén will help you to feel comfortable carrying your child on your back, so that you can continue to enjoy all the wonders of babywearing.

​

During this two-hour workshop, you will learn different techniques for putting your child on your back, which may vary according to age, weight and personal preference, so that you can find the option that suits you both best. You will practise with a demonstration doll and your real child until you both feel safe and comfortable.

​

You can bring your own baby carrier and/or try out the different options I have available.

Previous babywearing experience is recommended.

This workshop is open to everyone, no previous babywearing or wrapping experience needed.

 

This two hour long workshop will be split in two parts:

• On the first part, I will explain the key technical points that will allow participants to use their wraps with ease and confort. We will cover strand-by-strand tightening, whole-wrap tightening, and seat making. We will learn about the importance of keeping a good tension while wrapping, and how to get rid of slack.

• On the second part, we will learn different carries. New wrappers will start with FWCC, but people with previous wrapping experience will be able to move on to different front, hip and/or back carries (previous back carrying experience recommended since back carrying will not be the aim of this particular workshop). I will show different carries and every participant will choose the ones they want to focus on. 

We will work on every one’s particular interests and built on their current knowledge, I will propose also variations and different finishes for the carries they already know.

 

Are you wondering if this workshop is for you?

 

Well, in general I would say: if it sparks your interest, you are welcome to join! The workshop is suited for both new and experience wrappers. In particular, this workshop might be right for you:

• If you have zero babywearing experience (maybe you are still pregnant!), but the idea of woven wraps is appealing to you and you want to learn about them in depth

• If you have babywearing experience but you always felt intimidated by the wraps because “people say they are too complicated” (spoiler alert: they aren’t!)

• If you use and love your stretchy wrap, but you feel that as your kid grows you need something that provides more support and stability

• If you already have a babywrap and know only a handful of carries, or if you feel like your technique could use with a boost to help you wrap with more ease and confort

• If you are already a confident wrapper but you would love to learn new carries, finishes, or polish your technique
