CONTRACT FOR THE PROVISION OF SLINGING LIBRARY HARINGEY FAMILY HUBS

Slinging Library provides families with the opportunity to try a selection of different baby carrier with guidance and support from a babywearing specialist.

Difficulties with attachment and bonding can sometimes be caused by, or result in, perinatal mental health challenges, including struggles with breast feeding. Evidence shows preventative early intervention can deliver better outcomes for babies, children and their families.

Family hubs aim to provide a joined-up holistic care by providing accessible, integrated maternity, baby and family support services through the first 1,001 days of life and beyond.

The slinging Library provision supports the perinatal mental health and parent-infant relationship element of positive early relationships along a continuum of need.

The value for the contract is £13,072.50 per annum.

The total cost over the life of the contract will be £26,145.
