back-carrying workshop

In this workshop I will explain why we wear our babies on our backs as they grow. I will teach a method to train yourself and your child to be able to easily back carry. I will demonstrate several methods for getting your child on your back without anyone's help. We will then practice with dolls and/or with your own child and carriers. 

I will put out yoga mats for the little ones. I have one larger demo doll we can take turns with, and 2 smaller ones. Also pillows that I will weigh down that we can practice with. It is up to you if you want to bring your baby/toddler. They are very welcome and I will also bring a few toys for them. It would, in theory, be best to practice with them, but also, it's important that we, ourselves, practice first and get comfortable with the motions. And the patience of the little ones can run out which makes it hard for you to keep paying attention. So just think about what will be best for you.

We will sit for a bit and I will do some explaining at the beginning and then we will start to practice. I will have my collection of carriers there too that you can try, but you should also definitely bring the carriers you have. 

It will be fun and social!
