Calling all sling-loving (or sling-curious!) parents!
Join us Monday, the 8th of September at 10am at the BRILL Family Resource Centre in Ballybeg (X91 YT38) for a warm and welcoming Babywearing Ireland Waterford monthly meet-up!
Whether you're brand new to babywearing or just want to try something new, come along to chat, connect, and explore our fabulous sling library. Our lovely volunteers Aga and Carmel will be on hand with tips, demos, and peer-to-peer support to help you carry with confidence.
Sling hire is just €15/month or 2 for €25—digital payments only via our website (we're cash-free for insurance reasons).
Please note: we keep it simple—no back or twin carrying at meetups.
Share the love, tag your sling-loving or sling-curious friends, and we’ll see you there!
