Chorlton Sling and Social is a sling meet for South Manchester parents and care givers to find out more about babywearing. Wearing your baby in all kinds of carriers has been shown to have a wide range of benfits to the child and to care giver, including health benefits and emotional benefits like improved parent-child bonding, reduced incidence of PND and even babies crying less!

We believe that carrying your baby is a wonderful experience for both parent and child, but let’s also be real, it’s really handy in busy modern life. The purpose of CS&S is to help people learn more about different types of carriers so they can choose one that suits them personally and as a family (Dads, Grandparents or any caregiver like foster parents or childminders can babywear too!) and provide the opportunity to try them or hire them in a safe and supported environment, then advise on where to purchase. All hopefully whilst having fun and meeting other mums and babies!
