Hey, I’m Lukeyta.

Certified babywearing consultant for Melbourne families.

I help parents and carers carry their baby safely, comfortably and confidently. Because every family deserves to feel gathered and held.

My Approach as a certified Babywearing Consultant

Personal & tailored

No two families are the same. Every consultation is built around you, your body, your baby, your lifestyle, and your goals. I come to you, so you can relax in your own space and we can focus entirely on what works for your family.

Safe & evidence-informed

All my consultations follow current safe babywearing guidelines including the TICKS principles. My advice is completely brand-neutral; I recommend what's right for you, not what's most expensive or what earns a commission.

Find the right support for you

In-Home Consultation

I come to you. In the comfort of your own home we'll work through fitting, safety checks, and carrying technique together — tailored entirely to your body, your baby, and your goals.

Virtual Consultation

Not in Melbourne? No problem. Via video call I can guide you through fitting, troubleshoot carries, and answer all your questions — wherever you are in Australia.

Group Workshop

Perfect for mothers' groups, antenatal classes, or a gathering of friends. Small group sessions covering the basics of safe babywearing, newborn carries, and more.

Sling Library

Try before you buy. Our curated lending library will let you explore different carrier styles before committing to a purchase. Coming soon — join the waitlist to be first to know.
