Baby Massage

Our Baby Massage course is taught over 5 weeks and is so gentle, it’s suitable from birth – 12 months.

Inspired by strokes from Indian & Swedish traditions and reflexology, each week we’ll teach you how to massage a different part of your baby’s body. By the end of the Course, you’ll have learnt how to massage your baby’s legs & feet, stomach, chest, arms and hands, face and back – a full body massage for baby ! We include a special sequence for the relief of Colic and Gas. You’ll receive a complimentary bottle of Massage Oil and an illustrated Course Booklet to use at home with baby. Both parents are very welcome to attend, we share discussions and classes are a lovely opportunity to meet other parents and make friends.

What’s happens in a Baby Massage Class?

Parents of baby are invited to join, where your baby is massaged only by you. The practice is led by baby and you’re welcome to feed your baby and meet their needs.  If your baby is asleep, you can practice the techniques on a teddy in class and when your baby is ready to be massaged at home, you’ll know what to do.

I wish the baby massage course could last longer. It was a great opportunity to learn how to massage my baby, calm her down, bond even more and also meet other parents. Sky, the teacher, is really sweet, professional and well prepared. Looking forward to do the Baby Yoga Course! Joana, August 2017
