I offer one-on-one private consults and can travel to you. I have a large collection of different kinds of carriers and demo dolls to practice with. I can also help you get a comfortable and secure fit with a carrier you already own.
If you have a group of friends that wants to learn a specific skill (back wrapping? tandem carrying?) we can set up a small group specialized class.
- Private consultation in your home (90 minutes) $100
- Includes an email or phone assessment to tailor the appointment to your needs. I provide different kinds of carriers for you to try and demo dolls (if needed). I can also help you with any carriers you may already have.
- Includes an email or phone follow-up after the appointment
- Fee includes travel between Palo Alto and South San Jose. Small travel fee may apply for consults outside of this area.
- Small group class covering one topic in depth (90 minutes) For example: newborn carriers, toddler carriers, tandem wearing, woven wraps 101, back carrying. $200 for up to 4 couples
- Includes an email or phone meeting to discuss class topic and assess your needs. I will provide carriers and demo dolls.
