Carrying Your Baby
$9.95
Is baby too low? Can they breathe properly? Are their hips okay? A carrier can be a lifesaver on the unsettled days, but it can feel fiddly and a bit nerve-wracking at first. These are questions new mums ask me all the time.
This guide covers the basics, based on current Australian product safety guidance: the different types of carriers, how to carry safely every time with TICKS, hip-healthy positions, and how to keep baby comfortable in the Australian heat.

Good to know
No, these guides are not medical advice. They are designed to share general information, practical checklists, and trackers built around current Australian parenting guidance and real-life motherhood experience. Every baby is different, so please always chat with your GP, midwife, or maternal child health nurse about your own little one.
