Sling workshops
Each month we will run group workshops which will focus on a specific skill eg. back carrying. These workshops are a great way to learn something new, and meet new friends!
Information on these workshops will appear on this page but do make sure to follow us on social media for the most up to date information.
Do you have a group of friends who all want to learn the same skill? Bespoke workshop bookings can also be arranged. Please contact us for more information.
Here are the workshops on offer. Dates and times can be found using the ‘Book Appointment’ button below:
Have you always wanted to try wearing your baby or toddler on your back but didn’t know where to start?
In this workshop we will learn the new skill of back carrying in a buckle carrier, in a safe environment with a professional there to help every step of the way.
We will go at your pace and the aim is for everyone to leave confident enough to keep practicing on their own.
This workshop is for:
Anyone who is confident using their own buckle carrier to safely carry baby on their front and wants to learn a new skill. Babies from roughly 6 months old, who have good head, neck and core control (who can sit unaided).
Venue: Sling Studio, Leyland
Price: £20 per person. (+£10 for second parent/primary carer)
Would you like to wear your baby but don’t know where to begin? Would you like to have some babywearing knowledge before baby arrives?

The workshop includes a look at why we carry, with easy to digest info about building bonds, brain development and secure attachment. We will also take a look at different types of slings & carriers, with a focus on safety and comfort for both parent and baby.
