YOU are the Expert on Your Baby
Jan 29, 2026When you're new to babywearing, it’s easy to feel like everyone else has the answers. The tutorials, the manuals, the forums…they can be helpful, sure.
But you know your baby.
Even if you’re just starting out, that instinct you’ve been building since day one is real, and it’s worth listening to.
If something doesn’t feel quite right, if your baby seems unsettled in a way that feels different, or if your body is saying, this feels off…pause. Reassess. Take a breath. Trust yourself, even if you’re still learning the “rules.”
Babywearing is about connection, not perfection.
You don’t need to push through discomfort or ignore your gut to get it “right.” In fact, tuning into your intuition is one of the best skills you can develop as a parent. You and your baby are learning together, and every moment you spend observing, adjusting, and responding deepens that bond.
Need help sorting out what’s normal and what could use a tweak?
That’s where a babywearing educator can come in…not to override your instincts, but to partner with them. They can offer practical tips while still honoring your unique connection with your baby.
You bring the instincts. They’ll help you with the tools.
