BABY MASSAGE WITH CARRIE

Each 1 hour session will involve a massage section where I will show you the techniques to massage your baby effectively and then there will be chance to chat and have tea/coffee and other refreshments. Baby massage helps with bonding and emotional/social development which continues throughout the rest of their lives. Research shows that babies who experience regular loving touch are more likely to have secure attachments and have better social interactions with more empathy.

Touch can also help a baby to regulate their emotions and reduce cortisol levels. It helps in developing trust, security and a sense of belonging as well as stimulating the production of oxytocin which promotes bonding and is calming. It can also enhance motor skills, improve immune function and improve weight gain in premature infants.

This is a 6-week baby massage course. Oil and handouts are included in the price. Please provide a towel/blanket to put on top of mat I will provide.
