Group news

We are no longer meeting monthly for various reasons and some months it was incredibly quiet.

It was a hard decision to make but I am still available for one on one help if you are local and need some help with your slings. All advice is free of charge but if you are a bit further away I will ask for a contribution towards petrol costs.

Read below to see how your members and friends can participate and nominate your group for the grand prize!

Babies. Parents. Community! Babywearing groups around the world do incredible work introducing new parents to the joys of baby carriers. We invite you to join us in an international fundraiser to benefit 60 of the world's top babywearing groups!
Together with thirty-six of our amazing retailers worldwide (scroll down to see who!) we are thrilled to announce the Sakura Bloom Spread the Love Benefit.

Here's how you can join in to Spread the Love and Win Big:

Purchase a $10 Spread The Love ticket. Each ticket enters you into a drawing to win one of thirty-six $100 gift certificates donated generously by our participating retailers-a total of $3,600!
All proceeds from the benefit will be used to provide each babywearing group with a silk Sakura Bloom sling for their lending library of baby carriers.
Tickets will be on sale February 1-14 and winners will be announced on Wednesday, February 17.
Bonus! The babywearing group with the most tickets purchased in their name-just enter your group's name in the comments box at checkout-will receive an entire wardrobe of Sakura Bloom slings! What is a wardrobe of Sakura Blooms? A big package from us containing our full range of linen and silk slings!
Buy a ticket or two (or as many as you'd like!) and show your support for babywearing groups here, there, and everywhere!

Sling meet today

Quiet but nice because it meant we could focus on doing some specific carries rather than just rushing through everyone.
I meant to take the camera but in the chaos of getting everyone in the car I forgot.
We did back carries with little babies and the double hammock.

I am planning on a meet for December but as it is the week before Xmas I'm not expecting a busy one.
