Alongside my Birthing courses, I also run unique classes which are a lovely combination of Baby Massage, Baby Yoga and Postnatal Stretches for mothers, also fun for fathers and older children too. Baby Massage and Baby Yoga are wonderful ways to bond with your baby plus give physical and emotional benefits for both of you. 

Babies are calmer and sleep better and are generally more supple and stronger after these classes. They increase their co-ordination abilities and their nervous system is developed. I also teach a colic routine that is ideal to help babies with digestive problems.

The benefits for parents are the increased confidence in handling their babies plus more awareness of how to soothe an upset baby. Bonding is a big part of the class too through the activation of the oxytocin hormone through massage and gentle touch. Parents also get to do some gentle yoga-type stretches plus make friends with the other families.

I really enjoy teaching these classes and here are some comments from a few mums:-

“This is the highlight of my month”

“This is my favourite baby activity”

“Thank you for creating such a warm, welcoming place for me to come to” (from a dad!)

“My baby loves the class and sleeps and poos really well afterwards”

Workshops will resume in the autumn. Watch this space!
