Hands-Free Hip Carry: Get Confident with a Ring Sling

Hands-Free Hip Carry: Get Confident with a Ring Sling

Summer is coming!

Do you have a little one who wants to join in on your summer adventures — but your arms need a break?

Maybe a toddler or preschooler who wants to ditch the buggy but won't walk a distance yet?

Want to master a hands-free hip carry, but overwhelmed by all the influencer hype on your socials?

If any of this sounds like you — this workshop is exactly what you need!

Join us for a friendly, hands-on 1-hour group workshop where you’ll learn to confidently carry your baby or toddler in a Ring Sling.

We’ll cover:

• Safe and comfortable Ring Sling techniques — including how to get a snug, supportive fit

• Front and hip carries — perfect for babies (including newborns) and toddlers alike

• Troubleshooting tips — so you can feel empowered to get the carry just right

Why a Ring Sling? A Ring Sling is a long piece of fabric with rings sewn at one end, worn across your body on one shoulder. It’s fully adjustable to fit a range of body types and ages — from newborns to pre-schoolers — as long as you’re both comfortable. Ring slings are lightweight, quick to use, and incredibly versatile, making them a perfect go-to option for summer outings, the school run or quick ups and downs around the house.

What’s included:

• Use of our Ring Slings and all resources during the session

• A 10% off voucher (minimum spend applies) to use in-store as a thank you for attending

• Tea and coffee provided

• Small children and babies are very welcome (let us know their ages so we can provide age-appropriate toys)

If you already own a Ring Sling, feel free to bring it along to practice with!

Cost: £12 per adult or £22 to include a month's hire (2 weeks free)

Your workshop will be led by Kim, our fully qualified and insured babywearing consultant, with over 10 years of experience supporting hundreds of families to carry their babies comfortably and safely. She also runs Bronwyn’s Baby including our in-house dedicated sling library.

Our sling library allows you to borrow a carrier for just £5 per week. When booking this workshop, if you chose to include a month's hire with your workshop ticket you are saving £10 in hire fees, allowing you plenty of time to practice the skills we cover, in the comfort of your own home.

If you feel a one-to-one consultation would suit you better than a group environment, get in touch — we’re happy to arrange that for you during store opening hours.

Group size: Minimum 4 adults, maximum 8 adults
