Check out the selection of carriers at Tiny Tots, and have a trained Babywearing Consultant help you to find a carrier that will suit your needs and be the most comfortable for you. You will go home confident with your new carrier purchase.
Already have a carrier you need help with? We can fit it to you and your baby, and troubleshoot any comfort issues you may be having. This session is also a great option for hands-on help with learning a new carry with a carrier you already use and love. If you need help with more than one carrier, up to three sessions (45 minutes) can be purchased in a row.
If you feel like need a little more than that, check out a Private Consultation!
Private Consultations
In-Store: $100 (60 minutes)
Bring your personal carriers, or try many different carriers from our extensive library to get an idea what works for you. Hands-on help with proper positioning and use, recommendations for carriers that will suit your personal taste, demonstrations, and reference sheets to bring home with you, are just a handful of the many things that can be included in your personalized consultation. After booking a session, a Certified Babywearing Consultant will contact you with some questions to make your consultation something you will be thrilled with.
This is a great gift for a baby shower or an expectant friend or family member. This is a wonderful alternative for those who benefit from learning in a one-on-one environment.
This session includes follow up with your consultant via email or phone, and a gift certificate for $10 off a single carrier of your choice at Tiny Tots.
In-home: $200 (90 minutes)
