Courses include various baby sling tying techniques and
practical exercises. Special attention is given to colicky babies,
hip dysplasia and spinal support. I provide practice slings for
you. Courses are available for front or back carrying. Should you
be undecided about carrying, you may borrow a sling for a week for
a CHF 50- deposit.
What
do you provide?
Yourself and the baby. Should you already own a sling,
you are encouraged to bring it to the course, regardless of the
length and brand.
Where
and when is the course?
I can come to your house (within Basel/local areas) or
we can find a mutually convenient location, at a time convenient
for you and your baby. Each course lasts around 1hr 30.
How
much does a course cost?
CHF 60 per baby (except two part pregnancy/newborn course
which costs CHF 85). Discounts are available for multiple, staged
courses, eg (courses 1, 2 and 3) booked at the same time but taken
at suitable and convenient times in the future, as the child grows.
