About Infant Massage and early bonding/attachment
You have probably started bonding with your baby while she was in your womb and now it is time to develop that early bonding further and enjoy your baby’s first cues and smiles.
Worried about not having had enough time during pregnancy to connect with your baby? It’s never too late to catch up with your little one. Relax, massage, enjoy!
This is 100% baby-led class and it is thought to be stress-free for mums too. During the class all mums are welcomed to feed, change, walk or rock their babies according to their own needs.
We will practice each stroke together and you will also have your own Infant Massage handout to practice them at home. We always include a short discussion about an infant related topic such us crying, colics, sleeping and more of those issues that worry most of new (and not so new) mums; all while enjoying tea/coffee and cookies.
We understand how overwhelming can be for a mum a new arrival at home, so this is also a great chance to network with other mums and free those hidden emotions.
What is a baby massage class then?
- A dedicated space where mum & baby can connect through nurturing touch
- A time for mum & baby to enjoy with rhymes, songs, eye contact and gentle strokes
- An opportunity to get in touch with other mums & babies who look a lot like you!
- A fun break on your busy mum & baby agenda on a non judgemental, baby-led atmospher
