Babywearing Meeting!

-

This month's La Leche League morning meeting topic is Babywearing!

What do you love about wearing your baby or toddler? What type of carrier have you always wanted to try?
Is there a tricky back or side carry you need demonstrated? Then this meeting is for you! And for the babywearing pros among us, this is an opportunity to share the love and spread your wisdom:) Please bring your carriers and try ours! We'll have ring slings, pouches, Mobys, woven wraps, ergos, and more.

Of course we always have space for your breastfeeding questions, concerns, and successes.

See you this Tuesday, January 17 @10am
Sunnyside Presbyterian Church
115 S. Frances St.
South Bend, IN 46617

We will continue to carefully monitor the situation in our area and continue meetings when it seems possible and safe for you and your families. We are taking this situation seriously and want to still be able to help mothers with breastfeeding questions. If you have any breastfeeding concerns or questions, you can still contact us via phone, email, or Facebook.
