This month, It’s A Sling Thing is in our “Sling Library Spotlight”! 🌟
Each month, we are showcasing a sling library from the UK to share a bit about themselves and the invaluable services they offer local families and the wider community.
We will also be asking them to share some of the most asked questions and how they answer them!

Jenni & Emily are directors of ‘It’s A Sling Thing‘ and here, Jenni talks through the services they offer and
why it means a lot to be able to help families wear their children.
From Jenni & Emily :
“It’s A Sling Thing is different to most sling libraries – we operate entirely online.
We provide sling hire via post, ordered from and sent to your own home, and our consultancy services take place over the phone or via video calls.
We want to support as many families as possible to try carrying, and our services often support families who cannot attend local sling services.
We also offer Try Before You Buy on many slings and carriers which we retail.
We want to give people the option of seeing if something is right for them in as many ways as possible!”
Top Question
What is the best sling for my baby?
It depends! Slings are a bit like clothes, they fit everyone differently and everyone has different tastes. If your friend buys the most awesome pair of jeans and they fit her perfectly, she might tell you how awesome they are. However, you might be a different size, or have a different shape, or just not like jeans so you won’t rush out and buy the same. Slings and carriers are similar. I LOVE my buckle carrier, but you might find it’s not the right option for you! That’s why libraries are so useful, you can try out different options and find the right fit for your family.
Having said all that, to help narrow down your choices there are certain questions we will always ask – how old your baby is, what do you want the sling to help you change in your life, do you need something quick, do you have medical conditions which might affect carrying, are you petite or broad…. All these answers will help us recommend options that might be right for you!
