Beco Gemini Review

The Beco Gemini is a little bit magic.  It's a carrier that has really grown on me.  When I first got this carrier 2.5 years ago I didn't have a child who fitted it (Tom was too big and Rachel hadn't even been conceived yet).  Trying with a doll I simply thought "yeah, its fine"... … Continue reading Beco Gemini Review

Did you know I also have a You Tube Channel?
Many of my clients find me on the second or third baby. Maybe they didn't really get on with a sling or carrier the first time round, or didn't really feel like they needed one first time around.
Three ways to make your back carry more comfortable.
Confidence is key. 99 times out of 100 when a parent comes to me saying baby doesn't like the sling, or that they are not sure their carrier is working - the only thing that is lacking is confidence

I posted a reel recently showing putting the waistband of a buckle carrier on your natural waist to help get the best possible weight distribution, and this was a question someone asked on that reel.
