The search is now on for our 2018 Ambassadors

Hello! 
So it’s getting to that time in the year where we sadly have to say goodbye to this years Ambassadors. But that also means we get to welcome new ones in to the Joy and Joe family! 
If you are in our chatter group and follow our main page, you will see that our ambassadors  are quite active and very passionate about our brand.
They do Live videos and get to takeover our Instagram, as well as chatting to you, the neighbour and their granny about Joy and Joe baby wraps!
Are you willing to take up a lead role in advocating for Joy&Joe?
Are you very vocal in the social media sphere and offline about babywearing?
​Do you love taking photos/videos of you and your little one enjoying your slings?
Are you very friendly, polite and willing to chat with other parents online/offline?
Do you love our wraps? Fan for years or new to wrapping?

We are conscious of how we all have families and jobs and some of you may have small babies. Please remember that this is a year long volunteer post so please only apply if you feel you can give the time. We are aware how real life can sometimes get in the way, we want you to be open and honest if you are struggling in any way.
​We are always available to chat and help in any way.
At the start of your ambassadorship we will offer guidance,
tutorials and mentor ship if needed.

Being an Ambassador has been an amazing opportunity. A chance to network with some amazing people and make friends and family along the way. I have learnt so much about myself, skills to use in my home and work life.
Thank you for this wonderful experience.

I've loved being an ambassador. It's an amazing experience and you really feel part of this wonderful family. It's very easy to be passionate about this brand, my enthusiasm for their beautiful products is genuine and will last long after my role has ended.
