Testimonial for Laura McCarthy, PCD(DONA)
We received Laura's babywearing education class as a babyshower gift from a work friend as first-time parents. We communicated with Laura prior to our birth and then afterward and she came to our house to help demonstrate a few different kinds of carriers and babywearing techniques we were interested in trying. I shared with her that I was still recovering from a c-section which she took into account as she showed us how to use the different carriers and advised us on how the type of carriers we used might change overtime.
Both my husband and I tried out the wraps and structured carriers to see what we each liked best using weighted dolls and then we finished by trying it out with our baby who had just woken up from his nap.
This was such an incredible babyshower gift! I received a gifted wrap shortly after from a friend and have been using the wrap technique every day around the house and for walks in the neighborhood. It's wonderful to be hands-free and our son loves it and often falls asleep as I'm walking around doing chores or finally sitting down to eat my lunch. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is curious about babywearing. My husband really loved the structured carriers, our son just has to gain a little more weight until he can use those, but the session was great because we also got to see and receive resources on some different brands. We didn't know much about any of this before our session so having brand names to look for and the advice of what to find used versus new was much appreciated.
Laura presented the information very thoughtfully, she was flexible and adaptable as our baby and cat were each doing their thing while she was here and she did a great job of demonstrating and then having us try afterward. I would recommend this to anyone interested in babywearing! It's been a game-changer for us.
