We booked a consultation with Chaira to go through properly fitting our caboo carrier so I could take my 8 day old on the school run. I had my first 4 years ago so wasn't feeling confident putting baby 2 in my carrier when he was so young so it was great to get a refresher. Chaira went through each step multiple times and made sure I was confident doing it myself before we left. We will be back once baby is older to fit the next stage of carrier. Baby wearing is such a great thing to be able to do especially when you have other children to get your arms free but still keep baby safe and close to you.

I have had 3 consultations with Chiara since having my baby, two in-person and one online. Chiara has a wealth of knowledge and is an expert in the world of baby wearing. Chiara can fit the right sling or carrier for you and your baby and get the safest and most comfortable fit for all. Chiara fitted a carrier for my partner and our baby for a front and back carry and he is delighted to be able to safely and comfortably wear our baby now too! Chiara has wonderful pre-loved carriers available too as well as ones for hire. You can spend hours trawling YouTube and Facebook for contradicting tips or book with Chiara and have expert, tailored advice. Chiara’s consultations are extremely good value for money. If you’re thinking of baby wearing or want to get a fit check - Chiara is your person!

Chiara helped me with babywearing from newborn to pre-schooler age with my two youngest children. She was professional, knowledgable and so kind, I completely trusted her to understand my requirements and match me up with the right sling for me at every stage. It was a bonus that she was very knowledgeable about breastfeeding accommodations and my own back health. I recommend Chiara’s services to everyone.

Chiara introduced me to baby wearing, I’ve successfully carried both my children (still regularly carrying my 2 year old) and I was so inspired I actually did a peer support baby wearing course. I always share Chiara’s page with my friends and new mums. Although physically she’s by far the closest baby-wearing support to me, she made me feel most secure by miles! She’s extremely down-to-earth and open. I would 100% recommend her services to friends and family (I already do so often!)

I went to see Chiara when I was pregnant. We tried loads of different slings and found the right one for me. When baby was here she then helped make sure it fit right for both me as my husband. But what you get from Chiara in your appt is far more than sling advice, you get kind, compassionate, and understanding support for all aspects of being a new mum, when you most need it. Chiara is wonderful, I would really recommend going to see her.

I met Chiara with baby number 1 when she ran Dance sling. She knows her stuff allowing you to babywear confidently and comfortably. There is never any judgement either! Also without her class I wouldnt have met the lovely friends i have today! Before that mum life was a little lonely. Baby number 2 lockdown made things harder but Chiara was still there at the end of the phone helping me get the right fit by assessing photos. Even if you don't babywear her content is honest, it is helpful and it makes you realise you aren't alone.

A really lovely mumma who knows everything there is to know about slings. I hired slings from Chiara with my middle child (he’s now 7 years) when I didn’t want to battle with a double buggy, and I was delighted with both the advice received and the slings available. During lock down I used Chiara again for my 3rd child and I’ve happily been using the same sling ever since, and he’s nearly 18 months old! I love Chiara’s Facebook posts, she is an absolute inspiration and offers unfiltered insights into the whole motherhood journey.

Super helpful ! Very friendly ! And offers an amazing service which I think the midwives in Chelmsford should be telling all new parents about in their information packs after birth as slings are a god send and Chiara has a magic touch. She taught me how to safely backcarry my first child, help me progress into a toddler sling with my daughter and carry while pregnant and then how to double carry when my son was born. Without this knowledge it would have been so much harder to do anything in the early days of having a new born. There is no one sling fits all approach with Chiara she really does take her time to find the sling that works for parent and child. Also please bring back dance sling if you can 💜

Highly recommend Chiara & her services! I first met Chiara when my little one was only 2 months old, where I was helped with choosing a ‘carrier’ (decided on a LL half buckle) & shown how to wear my baby safely. I then spoke with Chiara again 2 months later when she ordered our Ergobaby Omni 360 for us (still love the LL but also wanted a fully buckled). A few weeks later we arranged a ‘fit check’ when I could go and collect it from her and she helped to fit my little one safely. Full of knowledge & really lovely. My little one is now 1 in 8 days (😩) & I can’t imagine where I’d be (hungry definitely - Babywearing is a life saver when cooking dinner!) without her help! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Chiara was so helpful during and after our sling consultations/hire. I went to her for help with carrying my tiny baby who weighed about 5lbs. She then helped me find another sling when he was a bit bigger and I had more options! Thank you for a great service ❤️
