Coventry Sling Library is committed to providing safe and unbiased help for parents and caregivers wishing to carry their children. We promote the benefits of babywearing across all ages , for both child and carer . We strongly believe that using a sling or carrier has the potential to be an invaluable tool to all families and are committed to providing a safe space and service which is accessible and available to everyone.Â

We have used Coventry Sling Library several times for different slings.Â
Having twins we didn't want to buy the wrong thing and also with me and my husband being such different sizes we wanted slings which were comfortable for us individually .
Siobhan is so knowledgeable and friendly , we tried on lots of different slings and practiced till we felt comfortable . Always would recommend this amazing service to all new and current parents Â
