Who we are

At North Shore Babywearing, we believe in the transformative power of the connection between caregiver and child, and within our local community. Our nonprofit is dedicated to supporting caregivers as they nurture secure, loving bonds with their little ones.

Helena’s passion for babywearing was born from her own journey as a caregiver. She discovered firsthand how babywearing fosters not only physical closeness but also emotional connection and co-regulation. Inspired to share this experience, she founded North Shore Babywearing to connect local caregivers, provide education, and offer access to baby carriers for families of all backgrounds.

Whether you’re new to babywearing or a seasoned wrap enthusiast, we invite you to join our vibrant community. Together, we’re building a more connected, supported, and resilient Long Island.

Our Library

At North Shore Babywearing, we believe that every family deserves the perfect fit. That’s why we host an ever-expanding library of baby carriers, allowing local parents to explore a wide range of options — from wraps and slings to soft-structured carriers and beyond.

With guidance from our expert babywearing educator, you can borrow and test different carriers to find the one that fits your body, lifestyle, and little one, all before you invest in your own. Whether you’re new to babywearing or looking to try something new, our library is here to support your journey with flexibility, knowledge, and community.
