That’s when I met Bee from ‘Bee is for Babywearing’. A Certified babywearing consultant, small shop owner & all-around badass mama of 3 wild bees!

We’ve partnered up to give you the gift of her hands-on experience & resources in this guest post & if you hang in there till’ the end, there’s a link below for a chance to buy a custom toddler wrap conversion! (and with every entry, you’ll instantly get a coupon to her shop!) Continue reading →
