Cost of a Babywearing Consult

When you are considering a consult, please be aware that each consult is tailored to you.  To breakdown what is involved in a consult, consider the time and efforts put into the consult.

Each consult involves:

-Research and online time
-Carriers for the library (carriers range in cost between $60 and $150 both new and used)
-Time for travel
-Time for designing presentations (presentations 2-3 hours long require about 6 hours to design)
-The cost of running a home-based business
-Childcare costs if I cannot bring my children

For each consults, you will be able to try out:  numerous woven wraps, ring sling, SSC, stretch and hybrid woven/stretch, and gauze.  Also available for comparison are carriers in the non recommended category.

BABYWEARING CONSULTS

- a basic, simple consult is $20/hour and negotiable with trade (the rate is the same for both the initial and any additional presentations).  I will trade for:  house cleaning or help organizing, photography, childrens clothing, cooking or baking.


EDUCATIONAL PRESENTATIONS

- a flat rate of $75/per presenter, negotiable with trade (up to three hours)
- $25 for one hour, $50 for two hours (per presenter)

SLING RINGS

Squish has sling rings available to those who are looking at DIY sling kits, and are using appropriate fabrics (ie. batik, Osnaburg, linen, and dupoini silk).  Squish does not sell DIY sling kits or fabrics, this is only a recommendation.  Please check out Sleeping Baby Productions for more information about making your own sling - and, how to turn your wrap into a no-sew sling.
