Baby Massage is a wonderful way to spend time enjoying your new baby and deepening your bond. Nurturing touch has been proven to have a significant positive and lasting effect on babies. In my five-week course, you will learn how to massage your baby from head to toe. You will also learn a separate short tummy routine that can give very effective relief for discomforts like wind, constipation, and colic. Baby massage can be very soothing for both baby and parent alike, and when practiced regularly, can help babies regulate their sleeping patterns. My Baby Massage classes are suitable from 2  weeks old to approximately 6 months. But most people join somewhere between 2 and 4 months old.

These classes are completely baby-led, and you are free to feed, change, and soothe your baby as required. All massage strokes are repeated at least once during the course, and instruction manuals are provided to help and encourage you to practice the massage techniques at home.

Each class ends with tea/coffee, homemade treats, and a chat. Many parents find it is a great way to meet other new parents in their area.

I can also provide private one-to-one or small group baby massage sessions in your own home anywhere in North Dublin, North Co. Dublin, Meath or Kildare.

Stretch It Yoga Baby Massage classes are certified with the International Association of Infant Massage, and as such, most Irish Health Insurance policies will cover up to €100 of the cost of the course. A discount is available to those with no health insurance coverage. I will provide you with an insurance receipt once the course begins.
