Baby Massage
Communicating Love Through Touch
Five-week course: Wednesdays at 11.30am, starting 12th June at the Village Centre, 68 Victoria Street, Englefield Green, TW20 0QX
I qualified as a Certified Infant Massage Instructor with the International Association of Infant Massage in 2010 and loved seeing the incredible benefits to mum and baby and witnessing the amazing bond between them. It is a privilege to be able to run this course so that mums can experience just how special baby massage is.
The classes are suitable for babies from around six weeks to crawling. During the course you will learn how to massage your baby with confidence and discover some of the wonderful ways massage can help your baby including:
Promoting relaxation and sleep
Relief from colic, wind, constipation and teething discomfort
Strengthening the special and enduring bond between mother and baby
Massaging your baby will also help you to understand your baby’s non-verbal language and respond respectfully with confidence. It can be a very relaxing experience and provides a fabulous opportunity to spend some precious time, really tuning-in and connecting with your baby.
The classes are fun, relaxed and baby-led which means that sleeping, feeding, nappy-changing and crying are all embraced! There will also be an opportunity to chat and share some of the ups and downs of having a new baby, whilst enjoying a cuppa and a piece of cake.
This course is a lovely way to learn a new skill that will last a lifetime, make some wonderful memories with your baby, find support and build friendships.
A five week course costs £65. Each class is roughly an hour long and includes a course manual, natural, organic massage oil and a lovely treat bag for mum.
Private classes for family members or friend groups in your home are also available. Please email me to enquire about availability and cost.
