Come join the www.familyvillage.ca for information on our
play groups! We are a group of parents in Windsor who are
passionate about wearing our babies close to us. We
hold weekly summer meetings and bi-weekly winter meetings where Parents and caregivers can
get help using slings and baby carriers and share other
parenting resources. Please feel free to bring any carrier
you have. We love looking at a types and name brands.
The purpose of carrying your baby is to give you back
some of your freedom of movement, and to encourage your
child to be intelligent, secure and independent. Wearing
your baby encourages calm environment and a more relaxed
parent and child. Carrying your baby in a sling type
carrier is fabulous for the mental development of your
child.
Carrying your baby is absolutely essential for dad
to do. If mom is nursing Dad may feel left out, a carrier
will show dad that his baby really needs him too. (He
DOES sometimes get left out.) Whether you are the biological
mommy or daddy or adoptive, carrying your baby encourages
parent/child bonding, and a greater sense security in
your child.
There are a ton of stylish baby carriers out there.
Most of them are wonderfully made, and are great for
your bonding experience. If you would like to see some
feed back / reviews on slings, wraps other cool carriers
and chat with some other parents please check out http://www.thebabywearer.com.
