The course consists of 6 sessions, you'll learn full body massage over the first 4 sessions. In the 5th session you'll learn 'quick massage' and get an introduction to baby movement. The 6th session is a "Fathers only" class.

 

We also include some nursery rhymes and children’s songs (don’t worry about your singing voice mine is terrible).

Course content:

​

We focus on baby massage for the 1st hour, afterwards you'll have a chance to discuss and ask questions over a cup of tea. We discuss various post natal issues such as:

​

• How did the birth go?

• Sensory toy workshop ( a chance to make your baby a sensory toy.)

• Dental care “when to start?”

• Weaning “where to start?”

• Returning to work “childcare options” or “to stay at home”

• Setting boundaries for your babies growing into toddlers!

• The 6th session is for “Father’s only” giving the fathers a chance to come with their babies on a weekend morning and  learn the massage (mums can get a lie in).

• All classes include refreshments!

​

Massage oils are provided as well as a book with details of massages and songs to help you practice at home. All you need to bring is your baby, baby blanket, nappies and wipes.

​

Classes are suitable from birth, however we find babies to be more receptive at a few weeks old (approx. 6 weeks) when they are more used to being touched. The Massage you will learn can then be enjoyed throughout childhood, and hopefully when they are older they will give you a massage back!

​

We recommend starting before your baby starts crawling.
