In this episode, we speak to Pearline Foo, Principal Consultant and Chief Babywearing Specialist Fitting Trainer of Baby Slings & Carriers in Singapore on the podcast this week.

A pioneer in the babywearing industry, Pearline has been advocating and acting as a Babywearing Specialist Fitter and Consultant since 2007, and has helped with more than 10,000 babywearing fittings!

Practiced for centuries around the world, babywearing is the practice of wearing or carrying a baby in a sling or in another form of carrier. Carrying your baby in a sling or carrier is a great way to meet the needs of warmth and closeness for both mothers and babies.

If you have seen other parents on the streets using a baby sling or carrier and you are wondering where to start, I hope that this episode will shed some light on this topic for you. If you are an experienced baby-wearer and have some tips for fellow parents, share your tips with us below.
