In this blog post, we’ll share tips and tricks on how to effectively master babywearing siblings.
1. choose the right carrying technique: Depending on the age and size of your children and your own physical strength, there are various carrying techniques that you can try out.

4. consider the weight and height of the children: It is important to consider the weight and height of your children when deciding how to carry them. If one of your children is significantly taller or heavier than the other, you should take this into account when choosing the carrying technique to ensure even weight distribution.
5. pay attention to safety: make sure that both children are securely tied into the sling and adequately supported. Regularly check the positioning and fit of your sling to ensure that it is still correctly positioned and does not cause any pressure points.
6. start slowly and gradually increase the carrying time: If you are new to carrying two children at the same time, start slowly and gradually increase the carrying time to get your body and your children used to it. Listen to your body and take regular breaks if necessary.
7. use aids and support: It can be helpful to get extra support from your partner, family members or friends, especially when you are first getting used to carrying siblings. If necessary, also use a carrier bag or backpack to carry extra items such as nappies, snacks and water.
