Meet Your Leaders
Becky Jeffrey, VBE
Becky lives in Santa Clarita with her husband, daughter, and two cats. She knew instinctively that babywearing would be a big part of her life as a mom and spent her first year obsessing over babywearing groups and forums, searching for the perfect combination of comfortable, stylish, and budget-friendly babywearing bliss. Becky holds an Associate’s Degree in Early Childhood Education. Before mommyhood, Becky was a full-time toddler teacher. These days, Becky is a stay-at-home mom who likes to make time for sewing, crocheting, and the occasional movie night with the husband. |
Amanda Leddy, VBE
Amanda has been babywearing since 2011 when her oldest daughter was just a month old, and is now happy to be wearing her second baby on a daily basis. Her favorite carriers are wraps and ring slings. Amanda is a graduate of Brooks Institute of Photography with a BA in Commercial Photography, and worked as a celebrity event photographer before becoming a full time stay-at-home mom. She lives in Monrovia with her husband, two daughters, two miniature schnauzers and a cockatiel. |
