I have been teaching Baby Massage since 2019 (qualified with Hands on Babies), and it is a really wonderful short course for new parents to develop key skills, as well as being an absolute joy to teach!
My aim is to create a safe space for new parents to feel held, supported and nurtured on their parenting journey, and to learn life-long skills and to deepen connections with their baby.
As a qualified Postnatal Yoga teacher, I also incorporate gentle postnatal yoga into the sessions as well as some baby yoga too!
Some of the many benefits of baby massage are:
-Improves relaxation, encouraging longer sleep duration for infants
-Help to relieve the effects of colic, teething, constipation and wind
-Stimulates all of the baby's major systems: coordination, respiration, digestion & immune system.
-Helps to strengthen the bond between parent and child
-Is relaxing both parents and babies and can also have wonderful social benefits for the parents.
