Baby Massage parent course, ?65, January, Nunhead

[Murraymints]

Happy New Year!

I used to run baby classes at the Clock Houses pub. I'm now running some new baby massage courses at the brand new community centre in Nunhead, starting in January.

Courses are aimed at families with babies from newborn to to 1 year old. The course lasts 5 weeks and each class is around an hour but is very baby-led.

Below are the details but please ask me anything.

Benefits:

For your baby

Helping your baby to feel securely attached

Helping your baby to feel more loved, valued and respected

Reduced crying and emotional distress

Increased levels of relaxation and longer sleep

Development of body awareness and coordination

Relief from wind, colic, constipation and teething discomfort

For you

Feeling closer to your baby

Gaining a deeper understanding of your baby's behavior, crying and body language

Providing an enjoyable opportunity for you to spend one-to-one time with your baby

Feeling the relaxing effects of giving your baby a massage

Increased confidence in your ability to care for and nurture your baby

Learning a life-long parenting skill

Venue and dates:

The Green Community Centre, 56 Nunhead Lane, Nunhead, London. SE15 3TU

JANUARY COURSE MONDAYS:

11, 18, 25 January and 1 & 8 February at 11AM.

The sessions will be very relaxed, the aim is to give you a special time to bond with your baby, to learn how to read baby's cues and to massage them safely. We begin each session with a short relaxation exercise for you and then we learn massage strokes for a different body part each week. We will also learn some gentle baby yoga moves and sing soothing lullabies.

I will provide mats, course booklets and oil, please bring a towel and blanket for baby and a cushion for yourself if you feel you need it as we will be sitting on the floor.

Best wishes,

Laura.
