Meet Your BWI Staff!

We are excited to introduce a new blog post series of "Meet your BWI Staff!" Our Volunteer Babywearing Educators and Trainees don't always get to meet all of you at our meetings, so what a better way than to introduce ourselves. 

In this post, meet Baxter Snider!



Name: Baxter Snider

Ages of Kids: 4 (Almost 5), 3 and 1

Where are from originally?: Miami, Florida

How long have you been babywearing?: Almost 5 years! My aunt got me a Ring sling to use with my first and I've been slowly branching out with carriers ever since. 

How long have you been a Volunteer Babywearing Educator/In Training?: Haven't started my training yet! 

What's your favorite type of carrier or go-to carry: A size 4 wrap and Galen's quick kangaroo is my go-to. I can always count a wrap nap and a happy nursling. 


What BWing obstacle/challenge/goal would you like to tackle/master next?: Double hammock. I just can't seem to get it right...but I will! I'd really like to keep branching out with my carries in general. 

What hobbies do you enjoy when you're not babywearing:? Hobbies? I don't really have any. I love all things birth! But that's now a job I love and not so much a hobby. Is drinking coffee a hobby? ;) 

What are your future goals?: Become a VBE before we leave CO. I love that babywearing will help me find a new group of friends wherever we end up next. I just hope they are as amazing as the lovely ladies here!!!
