Halesowen Sling Library

What is a sling library?

Thinking about carrying your newborn/baby/toddler/preschooler? Want to try out a specific sling? Need some help with a carrier you already have? Want to meet other local parents?

Come along and enjoy a hot drink while browsing our selection of slings suitable for newborns right up to toddlers - see them demonstrated and borrow them to try at home. You can also get help with something you already have.

All welcome including partners, expectant parents and family. Please book if you can.

It's completely free to attend.

You do not have to hire, but if you do, hire costs are just £15 for 4 weeks, which includes support to find the right one for you, trying on options and getting the fit set up. You can see everything that is available and make a reservation here: https://happyslinglady.myturn.com It's no problem if you don't know what you want yet, but you will need to make an account there to borrow.
