What will you get out of coming to babywise massage classes?
Time to relax with your baby, share with other Mums and crucially, learn what your baby needs and wants. All babies speak a language with their eyes, bodies and sounds they make. Baby massage is the perfect way to start reading our babies signals or 'cues'. Rarely are we as parents taught this language, but once you've cracked the code its enormously empowering. Many of the sleep problems parents have with babies, for example, can be sorted out once parents realise their babies sleep 'cues'.
Many of my parents join my classes when their babies are 6-8 weeks old. They really enjoy the experience of tuning into their babies and the confidence this gives them. The groups are always small and run over several weeks so they parents can get to know each other, creating a safe and relaxed weekly refuge for tired Mums. Every week, we learn the massage then share freshly baked cakes and tea before a discussion time around a topic, which might be 'sleep' or 'f'eeding' or the'pros and cons of routines'. Information is provided by the teacher, with the aim of helping parents make informed choices. Hear what parents get out of classes on the next page...
