Episode #37: A Guide to Modern Babywearing with Jay McMillin

This week’s episode is the first in a three-part series about a topic that a lot of parents hold very dear: Babywearing. In this episode, Becky is speaking with Jay McMillin, a professional babywearing and lactation educator, and mother of a four year old daughter. Jay is also certified with the Center for Babywearing Studies and is the voice behind the blog Modern Babywearing. Jay is working to normalize the practice of Babywearing and has a lot of advice and knowledge to share on this topic. We believe that this is some really valuable information for location independent parents who are traveling with babies in tow.
