Come learn the basics of babywearing and enjoy some playtime with your little one at Wrap & Wonder: Babywearing 101 + Play event!
About this Event

Join us at Work & Wonder Co. in Milford for a cozy, community-centered workshop designed for parents and caregivers curious about babywearing.

In this beginner-friendly Babywearing 101 class, you’ll learn the essentials of safe, comfortable carrying from understanding the T.I.C.K.S. safety checklist to exploring the different types of carriers (wraps, ring slings, buckle carriers, meh dai). You’ll have the chance to practice with demo dolls and carriers, ask questions, and gain confidence in finding what works best for your family.

After the 30-minute workshop, stay for 30 minutes of open playtime in the Wonder space! While little ones explore, parents can connect, continue practicing with their carriers, and receive individual support in a relaxed and supportive setting.

This event is perfect for:

  • Expectant parents preparing before baby arrives
  • New parents curious about which carrier might fit their lifestyle
  • Caregivers looking for hands-on support in using their carrier with confidence
  • Families who want to meet others and build their local village

Wrap up in connection, stay for the wonder of play. We look forward to welcoming you and building our community together.
