Are you following along with the 7 lucky moms of the Sakura Bloom Triathlon? Lots of fun! We have just announced the winner of our Round 1 Challenge – The Interview. Each mom had three questions to answer and the winner receives a $100 gift certificate to fawn&forest!
The questions were:
- What first interested you in babywearing?
- How is your personality reflected in your parenting style?
- If you could spend a year traveling with your family, where would you go and why?
These interviews were beautiful! Head over to Adventures in Babywearing to read their answers and find out who we chose as the winner!
Be sure to also follow along on each of our moms blogs!

Tell us a little about yourself, your family, and your love of babywearing.
I have 3 children Ella 7, Brennan 4 & Finn 8 weeks. I have been babywearing since my first child was just a few months old and here I am seven years later (where does the time go)! I am a full time Mommy & part time Photographer.I am actually just getting back to work since having Finn and will be wearing him during my upcoming photo sessions.
What was your “a-ha” moment with baby carriers?
When I had my second child I really realized how wonderful babywearing truly is & how important is is to have your hands free!
What is your favorite thing about a ring sling?
I love that it is adjustable giving a perfect fit every time. I also think they are so pretty.
Clearly we’re biased, but we love photos of parents with babies in slings. What do you like most about photographing infants?
There is nothing more beautiful than capturing the closeness of a parent and child…babywearing creates an amazing closeness. My absolute favorite thing to photograph is an infant in a sling.
What is your Sakura Bloom sling of choice?
Right now we only have our Simple Linen in Organic Raven (which we love) but if I could pick any one it would have to from the Luxe line and probably Moondance.
Thanks to Stephenie and Finn for sharing with us!
