Discover the magic of touch and benefits of massage in our Infant Massage online course. This two-part course is designed for caregivers and their little ones or those expecting. This hands-on experience teaches gentle, effective massage techniques to promote calming and relaxation for your baby or toddler, strengthens the bond between caregiver and child, and supports overall well-being. During the first class parents/caregivers will receive expert guidance from a certified instructor on massage basics, oils and child positioning, and tools to practice at home to prepare for class two. Class two is designed for parents/caregivers and their child to learn the full baby massage routine including techniques for colic relief and adaptations for the growing child. You will learn the nuances of baby's cues for when and how to utilize the power of massage. Join us from anywhere to give your little one the gift of comfort and connection!
