What is a babywearing party?
A babywearing party is an opportunity for mothers (or fathers) to gather together with their babies to learn about the benefits and techniques of babywearing.  You will have the opportunity to sample, be fitted and purchase products in the comfort of your (or your friend's) home.

Myself, my model (son) and an assistant (babysitter) will lead the party.  I will provide a short talk about the benefits of babywearing and then demonstrate, with my son's co-operation, the various products and holds.  You will then have an opportunity to experiment with the products yourself and ask questions.  Orders will then be placed.  I try to keep the parties short and sweet as we all have little ones with short attention spans :)  The parties are very laid back and are a great opportunity to play with the products I have in stock.

I am interested in hosting a party, do I receive any benefits?
This is currently in development.  At this time the benefits that you will receive are hands on experimentation for yourself and your friends with the various babywearing products.  You will also save money on shipping charges as they do not apply to orders placed at a party.

How long will it take for me to receive my order?
You will receive any regular orders within approximately 7-10 business days.  I will wait for any cheques to clear before distributing products.  If you have requested a special order it may take longer to receive.

Do I have to pay for shipping?
No.  Since you are picking your order up from the hostess, you will not have to pay shipping charges (unless you request for your order to be mailed to you, then shipping charges will apply).
