Baby Massage has many benefits, such as enhancing bonding, promoting better circulation, improving digestion, giving emotional security, improving muscular development and coordination. It can help encourage better sleep patterns and with problems such as colic, colds, teething, and constipation.

Please note: this class has been moved from the 30th to the 27th - if this does not fit for you please get in touch with Ylenia (see number below). 

Many cultures start the practice of massage from birth, to strengthen the bond with their children, calm and help them sleep, relieve wind and colic and generally assist with healthy development. In India, for example, it is a traditional custom to give the baby a daily massage with oil, followed by yoga and finally a warm bath.

This is the third class in a 5-weeks-course. For registration please scroll down.

  • How to do massage strokes for the legs, feet, tummy, chest, arms, hands, back and face
  • A massage techniques that can help your baby if she / he has problems with gas or suffers from colic.
  • Gentle movements
  • What oils to use
  • When to massage

This (and any future) baby massage course consists of five classes á 60 minutes. For this course, classes are held on each Thursday from the 16.11. until the 14.12. Each week you will learn one body part and review the strokes you've learned the week before. You will get handouts of the strokes for you to keep so you can practice the strokes at home.

We also make sure that there is time set aside each week for discussions. The main topics covered are crying, colic, sleep, but it's also a forum for you to raise any parenting issues you may have.
