Just because nursing your baby may seem natural, that doesn’t mean it comes naturally. You can have the experience you dream of with someone to help you through.

From preparing prenatally to troubleshooting and knowing when things are going great. Nursing your baby should add to your experience in a positive way - whatever that looks like for you.

Testimonials

    I would just like to say your account has repeatedly encouraged me to keep practicing with my baby girl and each time gets better. And every time I’m a little lost I go back to your account to re-watch your tips and how to and it’s just tremendously helpful. Especially because this is currently so important to me because my little girl is sick and wants to be held quite a bit and in return I want to hold her, having the ring sling makes it so much easier. Your stories is one I watch every day.

    I met founder Kayleigh at the last Baby Show and her passion and energy made me instantly fall in love with her brand. Not only is she an amazing educator when it comes to baby wearing, but she’s working hard to make baby wearing accessible and possible for everyone! Ask about their amazing try before you buy program. We love our ring sling but every baby’s different and you never know what will work best for you!

    These videos are one of the 93614 reasons why I love you and your community. I thought I knew what I was doing with babywearing (honestly thought I was pro at slinging at least), little did I know I just had a baby who loves the sling. Now my youngest, needs the sling for comfort and the deep pressure proprioceptive input but isn’t the easiest to sling. Rewatching your videos / tips has helped so much and I’m learning so much more. So what I’m trying to say, in the most long-winded way possible, is thanks for these and for the community you’ve cultivated. You’re so appreciated ❤️

    After my mastectomy, this woman gifted me a sling so I could hold my 1 year old after a LONG 6 week recovery. There are no words to describe how happy a mama can be after 6 weeks of not being able to safely hold her infant ❤️
    My situation is just one of hundreds that she supports through education and resources in the babywearing community.

    I am currently waiting for my first Heritage baby sling to arrive in the mail and I simply cannot wait. I have been following the Instagram page for almost a year and have fallen in love with several colours but finally had the funds to purchase from the fall drop. I love what Kayleigh stands for and the positivity, inclusivity, and education she promotes and shares. Being a small, woman run, Canadian business this quickly became number one on my wish list for use with my toddler and soon newborn!

    Just thank you Kayleigh for organizing this [postpartum support] group and being so kind, thoughtful, wise, and somehow knowing the right thing to say at the right time! Thank you ❤️
