  • My trainer was amazingly animated and charismatic in her teaching. She made it so enthralling and comfortable, we loved trying all the different slings.
    A.S.
  • Learning practical skills was great but I also loved learning how to support parents who may have additional needs beyond the nuts and bolts of fitting a carrier.
    P.G.
  • I have come away from the course much more informed and confident in correctly and safely fitting carriers.
    H.B.
  • Thank you for the course, it was amazing to see how much we could learn in a day.
    K.T.
  • Such a wonderful comprehensive course! I cannot wait to keep learning more.
    J.L.
  • Doing the Peer Supporter Course with Born to Carry gave me the confidence I needed to help out at my local Sling Library.

Instagram post 2174206016676377888_2921759736 We have a new structure; a new logo, and quite a few new peer supporter trainers joining us from all around the UK! We’re excited about how much we have grown in the last year and how much we still have to do!

We focus on excellence in baby carrying skills, with a standardised minimum course framework that allows our trainers flexibility and personality. No course is exactly the same, but every Born to Carry peer supporter will be able to help parents/carers competently and confidently, due to their comprehensive grounding in safety and communication.
