Parents' Paradise

We met at Parents' Paradise, a new softplay area near Watford. Unfortunately it was incredibly busy, as it was the Friday of half term and it had just opened. We were delighted to welcome two brand new members. The older kids had a great time, and the Mums took over the small kids play area to share our slings. I'm not sure what the other families made of us. It was lovely to meet new slinging Mums and we look forward to seeing them again soon.

Summer meets

Babyslingers met twice over the summer, once in The Case is Altered, in Hatch End, which was great place for a meet in the summer hols thanks to the great play area outside. We took over the sofa area whilst the older kids took over the garden.

We also had a meet at Linds's house, where we were v excited to welcome our newest baby, Yara Marie, who was one week old. Much broodiness, especially at the sight of such a tiny baby in a gorgeous Napsack. Her Mum, K, was looking amazing, and everyone agreed it was incredible that she was up to socialising so soon after the birth.

more Singapore

So....what did I see in Singapore. Well, lots and lots of people carrying older babies/toddlers in SPOC (simple pieces of cloth) or shortie wraps in basic hip carries. This was especially popular on the underground. I also saw a couple of ring slings and one lonely Hotslings pouch. No MTs, which was a shame.
