I'm so grateful to have come across Chelsé's page and to have had her share her wealth of knowledge around how to safely baby wear! I'm currently 37 weeks pregnant, and wanted some guidance on carrier options for a newborn and she thoroughly demonstrated various options & how they should be positioned specifically for newborns. I really appreciated how this was child directed, through observing + honoring how the child chooses to position their body. I decided to go with a ring sling, and she also recommended where I could get one. She answered all questions I had, and most importantly, provided reassurance and confidence in being able to do this for the first time! We also had such beautiful conversations about honoring the origins of this practice, honoring the spectrum of emotions/experiences that come with child birth and she created such a loving and safe space; I'm very grateful to have met her and have her included in my motherhood journey/community. Thank you so much Chelsé!

I recently had the pleasure of scheduling a beginner consultation with Chelsé and can’t recommend it highly enough. Chelsé took the time to listen to my goals and asked questions to ensure that my baby and I were both comfortable while learning about our carrier. She walked me through, step by step, and patiently offered much encouragement and praise as we learned and practiced together. This hands on support was invaluable to our baby wearing journey and gave me confidence and peace of mind that I can safely wear my baby. This consult is truly one of the best investments I’ve made as a mom, I find the closeness and freedom I’ve gained with my baby to be priceless!

Chelsé is both so warm & kind. I remember being newly postpartum and wanting so badly to baby wear my daughter so I could get out of the bedroom. Chelsé was so attentive and patient as I was having my consult while my 4 week old daughter slept. She answered all of my questions and used Baby Maxwell as a perfect example for how to use a ring sling. 6 months later and we’ve been baby wearing every day since. I cannot thank and recommend Chelsé enough. She’s so caring and thorough. I felt so supported and confident afterwards! Yall cannot go wrong with scheduling a consultation with her!

Chelsé has been such a huge help to my baby wearing journey. I didn’t baby wear much with my first baby, and the second time around I knew I’d need to be on the go and hands free much more often. Before my baby was born I got on a call with Chelsé and talked through all the types of carriers and what would fit my needs best, and a basic how to use it and which brands to look into. After baby was born we were able to do a quick fit test which was so useful. Then, as baby grew and our needs changed, I was able to get on a call with Chelsé again to do a fit check on my second carrier. I still use both carriers all the time, and the tips from Chelsé are a huge part of why I could make baby wearing work this time around! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

I had the absolute honor to attend the Babywearing Basics workshop it was so informative. As a mother I learned about baby wearing options that I can use based on my child’s development and temperament. As a birth worker, I learned ways to help my clients make the appropriate adjustments to their carriers while maintaining comfortability and safety. It was easy to follow the way Chelsé discussed and modeled the baby wearing options. She was very thorough and thoughtful on her teaching methods. I would definitely recommend Chelsé’s workshops to others! She’s a gem!

I attended the workshop Chelsé held to get a better understanding of wearing my toddler. I had been wanting to try a toddler carrier for my son and had so many questions. Chelsé was able to answer all of those and more for me! It really was so informative and fun to listen to! I was able to take great notes and watch her demonstration and learn all the parts of the carrier. I felt much more confident wearing my son afterwards!

Chelsé is awesome. She went above and beyond during our consultation and followed up after to make sure I didn’t have any questions. She is super knowledgeable, kind and patient. I recommend her to anyone looking to educate themselves on baby wearing. It was such a positive experience! My son and I both adore her

I’ve been following Chelsé for a while on IG and really admired the work she does in her community. I wanted to start babywearing more and she immediately came to mind when I decided to book a fit check. She helped me determine that this was the right service and recommended which of my three carriers we should focus on. The actual appointment was just so great—she is kind and warm and encouraging. I loved how gentle and supportive she was as my baby cried and cried until he settled perfectly in the ring sling. I got nervous—she didn’t and kept calmly guiding me through adjustments. She also tailored our discussion to my specific needs around babywearing. If you are wondering whether to book (or gift!) a session, just do it. I feel so capable after even a short session with Chelsé. I so appreciate her expertise and beautiful spirit!

After my consultation with Chelse, I have much more confidence using my ring sling and baby is much happier too! Chelse took the time to address my specific areas of concern and gave me tailored advice. Her take on wearing baby is just really practical, which helped me feel at ease to keep trying even if I wasn't perfect. I'm 3 weeks out from my consultation and my 4 month old has gone from screaming, crying in the carrier to loving her afternoon carrier nap. Chelse is also just so, so kind. I really enjoyed meeting her.

I just had a 1:1 consult with Chelsé Inman. AMAZING. Wise. Rich with knowledge. Tunes into both you and your baby (or emerging toddler in my case!). Nothing better than hands on support from someone trained in safety and technique of baby wearing. Most importantly, Chelsea is culturally congruent in her approach. She listens to your story, not just your needs and starts there at the heart.

Working with Chelsé has been a pivotal marker of my pregnancy and postpartum period. I’ve been following Chelsé on her social media account before I even conceived and I knew that once I was I would need her assistance with baby wearing. I scheduled a virtual class to which my partner and mother also sat in. I knew I would love wearing my baby- the class was laid back and truly felt like I was talking to a friend. At four months now- there is nothing I love more during the day than wearing my baby for naps and walks. The only thing I wish was that I lived closer to Chelsé so I could meet her in person and be part of the amazing things she does in her immediate community.
Lastly I would like to mention- that you get so much out of following Chelsé not only for baby wearing but for ALL things child bearing and beyond. Words cannot express my gratitude for Chelsé’s time and effort to be a help. I consider her part of my support system- I learn something from her stories and posts every time I log into the app. Her website is another amazing resource that I utilized for my birth and then rocky start of my BF journey. Her support and existence has definitely made me so much confident as a first time mom navigating this amazing yet challenging season of my life. Do not doubt to book any of her services- you will get much more then what you pay for.

I’ve always wanted to learn how to nurse my baby while wearing him. As a mom of two it is important for me to multitask and meet my baby’s needs while attending my toddler. When I found Chelsé’s baby wearing classes I knew I’d found what I needed. Chelsé is very patient and takes her time to answer questions, show step by step how to wear a variety of carriers. I personally had trouble wearing a ring sling. After my consult with her, not only did I learn how to wear it but also how to comfortably nurse my infant. She also explained and demonstrated to me how to properly adjust my carrier to nurse my baby in it as well. She made me feel at ease, confident and empowered. I definitely recommend her classes and I’d personally gift these to my mom friends and relatives bc they are game changers. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
