***PLEASE READ***We have joined forces with the Hackney Real Nappies Network to offer you the ultimate cloth nappies and sling session!
Once a month, we meet at Hackney Central library where Esther and Joy from Nappy Ever After will tell you everything you need to know about cloth nappies. Their friendly and informal demo is for anyone who is interested to learn more about reusable nappies, whether you are an expectant parent or you are already using nappies. All welcome!
The talk will start at 10am and last approx. 40 mins and will cover:
-the different kinds of reusable nappies
-the newborn stage
-washing guidance
-other local nappy initiatives.
-troubleshooting.
Hackney parents can claim their FREE £70 reusable nappy voucher. Info here: https://www.realnappiesforlondon.org.uk/voucher-participating-boroughs/hackney/
Nappy Ever After will tell you about their fantastic laundry service and shop.
Following that, I will offer a sling clinic whereby you can come for a fit check with your OWN sling. Here's how I can help:
- Show you how to do a front, hip or facing out carry (I do not show back carries to beginners unless you have already tried and need a bit of troubleshooting)
- Explain safety and positioning
- Check if your sling fits you and your baby well and suggest adjustments if needed
- Show how to feed in your sling
- Answer your questions or address your worries
You must come with your own for this sling clinic. If you want to try other slings, you will need to book an appt at the Bethnal Green sling library instead.
Fit checks are 10mins per person, no more, so I can help everybody.
You might be paired up with other people if you all need to same kind of support.
If I can't improve the fit of your sling or we find that it isn't safe, I will suggest booking an appt at the Bethnal Green sling library.
Please DM me ahead of the clinic so I know that you are coming and what sling you have.
The sling clinic is free, but you are very welcome to make a donation to the sling library via my 'Buy Me a Coffee' link (see below).
The sessions run monthly during term-time only.
Timings: 10am-11am (approx): Cloth nappy demo and Q&As
From 11am approx: the sling clinic will start just after the cloth nappy demo around 11am. Please arrive by 11.30am, if nobody has arrived by then, I will leave.
