Carry Me Away provides the following in-person instruction and classes in Napa,
CA
and
surrounding
areas.
Baby Carrier Classes: Held
monthly in Napa. Classes are 90 minutes long and will introduce you to the
benefits of babywearing,
the different types of carriers, and how to choose and use the carriers that
are right for you and your family. You will also have the opportunity to
try on different types of carriers for yourself and to buy carriers as well.
Bring your children (if you have them yet!)
Private Classes
Full class: A personalized session in your home or mine. Perfect for caregivers
with multiple children, scheduling issues or parents/children with special
needs. Also great for playgroups and other informal groups. Each 90 minute
session will cover the same information as classes but customized to your needs
and with as much 1:1 instruction as it takes. I will also be available for
follow-up e-mail and phone advice free of charge.
Fee: $50
Quickie Class: A personalized 45-minute session focused on
using a carrier that you already own and may be having trouble using. Great
for learning back
carries, perfecting breastfeeding positions, troubleshooting your comfort,
etc.
Fee: $25
Buying Appointments:
Just want to purchase? Contact me to set a time to view and try on any carrier
featured on the site. Your appointment includes instruction
in using any carrier that you purchase. For groups of three or more, buying
appointments can be conducted in your home, provided
you
are within
a reasonable driving distance of Napa.
Hostesses of "Sling parties" can earn a free or discounted carrier!
Fee: Free
Professional Presentations: Bring baby carrier education
to your group or organization! This is a brief (15-30 min) presentation geared
towards informing your members of the benefits
of babywearing. You will receive an introduction of babywearing to your group
and a demonstration of the basic types of carriers.

for providers and nonprofits who work
with parents

class or workshop (e.g.Lamaze). Please contact me for more information.
