This monthly drop-in class will teach you all you need to know about massaging your sweet babe** and more! A second caregiver is encouraged to attend the classes at no additional charge.
Infant massage has been shown to:
promote bonding and verbal and non-verbal communication
bring relief to gas, other digestive discomforts and growing pains
improve sleep patterns
stimulate the growth and functioning of numerous bodily systems including the nervous system, immune system and digestive system.
For the caregiver, some of the benefits include:
a better understanding of your baby
reading and respecting cues
improved self-esteem and confidence
higher levels of relaxing hormones like oxytocin and prolactin, which can be helpful in the stimulation of lactation and better sleep.
