Infant Massage Classes

What is Infant Massage?

Infant massage is an ancient art that connects you deeply with the person who is your baby, and helps you to understand your baby’s particular nonverbal language and respond with love and respectful listening. It empowers you as a parent, for it gives you the means by which you become an expert on your own child.

How can you learn?

I am a Certified Educator of Infant Massage or CEIM through Infant Massage USA and International Association of Infant Massage. I include infant massage lessons in my premium postpartum doula services and parent coaching packages, but I also offer private infant massage classes prenatally or after your baby is born.

Prenatal infant massage lessons can be taken anytime during pregnancy. Together we learn about cues, communication and bonding and get to practice the strokes on dolls.

Learn more about infant massage lessons by contacting me.
