On Friday I welcomed 4 new mums & babies ,along with 1 grandma & 2 returning mamas with their 2nd babies to our new baby massage course. One more family will join us next week ☺️
The babies in this group are a lovely range of ages - it really does vary from course to course.
After getting to know each other a bit and learning about some ‘top tips’ for Baby Massage, the families were shown how to massage their baby’s feet and legs.
The feet & legs are always the best part of the body to start with, as babies are usually used to their feet and legs being handled lots during nappy changes, getting dressed & bathtime.
Anyone who loves a foot massage themselves will know how relaxed it can make their whole body feel - we certainly had some very relaxed and sleepy babies afterwards.
The babies had their naps, feeds, cuddles & nappy changes whenever they needed throughout the class, its all very relaxed.
As it was the first week, the babies made some ‘ My first week at Baby Massage class’ butterflies which came out beautifully. By the end of the course, the families will have made 5 special keepsakes ❤️
As the sessions are 1.5 hours long, there is always plenty of time to enjoy a chat with the other families and have a drink and a sweet treat.
I’m looking forward to this Friday where we will learn the massage strokes for the tummy, as well as a separate routine that can help with tummy discomfort such as colicky type pains & constipation ❤️
