Sling With Me was founded in 2009 to provide babywearing education and sales in Delaware and Maryland's Eastern Shore. Our mission is to educate the community on the benefits of babywearing and to offer the tools for parents and caregivers to do it safely.
Owner Heather Felker provides one on one consultations and group classes. As the mother of eight children and grandmother of two more, she has many years of first hand babywearing experience. She is formally trained in babywearing through the Babywearing Institute, and now is licensed to run the east coast campus of the school.
Heather is passionate about babywearing as an essential parenting tool, and as an aid in establishing a healthy breastfeeding relationship.
In addition to running Sling With Me, she leads babywearing support group meetings for the BWI of Delmarva and provides breastfeeding support as a La Leche League Leader. Heather is also a member of the Board of Directors for Babywearing International.
