Available Infant Massage Courses

Pricing starts at $150 for the Infant Massage Course. Please see the service list for further pricing; pricing depends on how many adults are attending and how many infants you're enrolling.

No, I do not massage your baby. I demonstrate the techniques on my baby doll and you will do them on your baby. I am there to answer questions and help guide you!

Yes, it is preferred that you attend all five classes, however we can reschedule a private class if you can't make one of the group classes. There is a $20 rescheduling fee. If I'm hosting more than one course at a time (ex, you're enrolled in a Monday morning class but want to come to a Saturday morning class to make it up) you can attend that class at no charge. Please keep in mind though that I don't always offer multiple courses.

Courses are always five classes because we learn about a separate part of the body and gentle touch techniques each class.

Class One: Legs & Feet

Class Two: Stomach & Chest

Class Three: Arms & Hands

Class Four: Face & Back

Class Five: Colic Relief & Gentle Movements

This class is for babies 4 weeks to 12 months old (though it's easiest to learn on a baby who isn't crawling yet!) and one or two of their parents or caregivers.

You may enroll up to two adults per baby. Please refer to the service list for pricing.

If you have multiples, I ask that you bring one parent or trusted caregiver per baby. If you have twins, bring a partner. If you have triplets, bring two! So on and so forth. This is so all babies are receiving one-on-one attention and you don't feel like you have to rush through, potentially missing out on key information. Please see the service list for pricing on multiples.

Classes are 60-90 minutes long, depending on the number of attendees. While we're not learning the entire time, wiggle room is added in for bum changes, feedings, and feelings. It's important to only massage your baby when they're in a state to receive it, as we don't want to go against their wishes just because it's inconvenient for us to wait. That's why we allot time for emotions!

Depending on the number of babies in the class (no more than five are enrolled in one course), we may not need the entire 90 minutes. Once we're done, you're welcome to head home or stay and chat with myself and the other adults in the group!

We will be sitting on the *floor massaging our babies either on the floor or in our laps, so I recommend bringing a blanket or towel to sit on, and another to lay baby on so that they're nice and comfy. Please also bring any necessary feeding supplies, bum change supplies, and a change of clothes. To achieve skin-to-skin, it's best that you massage your baby without their clothes on. You can leave the diaper on, but some parents opt to take it off so expect accidents!

I provide massage oil for you to use during class, to take home between classes, and to keep when the course is over. If you need a refill before the course is over, let me know and I'll fill your bottle.

At the beginning of each class I'll provide you with handouts of the routines we'll be learning that day so you can take notes and practice at home to work massage into your baby's daily routine!

*If you require accommodations such as a table to massage your baby on, please let me know when you enroll so I can be prepared to best support you and your baby.

Yes of course! If you plan to attend with an older child, please let me know ahead of time and I can try to bring a few items to hopefully hold their attention while we're learning. Littles tend to want to do what we do, so I suggest bringing along a stuffed animal or doll for them to practice as well! Coloring books, a book to read, or a few soft/quiet toys are good options too!

The choice is yours and I respect your decision, however please know that this is a welcoming, accepting space! We work in the time for baby's emotions and for yours too. At some times what we need is need a moment to ourselves, but at others we need to be around adults who understand. I hope that by the end of this five week course, you've made a few friends who do understand!
