Warrnambool Babywearing Workshop

Free Babywearing Support in Warrnambool

Join South Eastern Babywearing Group at Warrnambool Breastfeeding Centre for a relaxed morning of practical babywearing information and hands-on support.

Whether you are preparing for a new baby, completely new to babywearing, having difficulty getting comfortable with a carrier you already own or exploring new options as your baby grows, you are very welcome.

During the workshop, you can:

• bring your own baby carrier for a personalised fit-check

• learn how to position your baby safely and comfortably

• troubleshoot discomfort or fitting concerns

• explore different styles of wraps, slings and structured carriers

• see, feel and try carriers from our demonstration collection

• practise using a carrier with a demonstration doll

• ask questions before choosing or purchasing a carrier elsewhere

• explore options suitable from newborn through to toddlerhood

You do not need to own a baby carrier or have any previous babywearing experience.

Who Is Welcome?

Expectant parents, parents, caregivers, partners, grandparents, support people, babies and children are all welcome.

This is a relaxed, family-friendly workshop. You are welcome to feed, change or settle your baby whenever needed and stay for as much or as little of the morning as suits your family.

We recommend arriving during the first hour when possible, particularly if you would like individual help fitting a carrier.

What to Bring

Bring any baby carriers you already own, including carriers you have borrowed, purchased second-hand or received from someone else. Where possible, please also bring the instruction booklet.

You are equally welcome to attend without a carrier and explore the options available in our demonstration collection.

Free, Independent Babywearing Support

South Eastern Babywearing Group is a volunteer-run community service.

Our babywearing information and fitting support are free. We do not sell baby carriers or receive commissions for recommending particular products.

Our aim is to help families understand their options and find safe, comfortable solutions that suit their individual bodies, babies and circumstances.

Photos at Our Events

We sometimes take photographs at our events to help show families what to expect and illustrate different baby carriers.

These may include general photographs of the workshop, a group photograph or individual families who have agreed to be photographed.

It is completely fine not to be photographed or to ask that your baby’s face is not shown. We will always ask before taking an individual photograph, and you may be asked to complete a photo consent form.
