If you are pregnant or less than 3 months postnatal, you can request to self-refer into the service by emailing the team here: physio.womensandmenshealth@ouh.nhs.uk 

If you are further down the line than 3 months, you can be referred by your GP, midwife, health visitor, or other health care professional.

Before you buy one it can be useful to try and few on and see which you find most comfortable, particularly when it comes to buckled carriers - more expensive with more clips and padded bits doesn’t necessarily mean better! We have a small selection focused on carriers suitable for young babies at DBM that you can try on during the session, but we don’t hire them out. A sling library or private babywearing consultant will have a wider selection, hire service, and can provide more specialist support.
