Who we are
We are Paula and Karen, baby massage instructors holding the IAIM qualification. (International Association for Infant Massage). We have worked together for many years. We now work alongside each other running our baby massage sessions.

Paula worked as a qualified nurse for many years, the majority of those as a Neonatal Nurse. She trained as a Breastfeeding Specialist with Unicef Baby Friendly and was also the manager of a Human Milk Bank for a Neonatal Unit in central London. She was part of a parent education team before going on to a nursing role in Bereavement and now volunteers as a Bereavement counsellor for two charities one for adults, the other for children. Paula runs a small business from home and is now enjoying establishing Baby Massage classes.

Karen is a qualified Nursery Nurse, working for many years on a Neonatal Unit. She also trained as a Breastfeeding Specialist and worked as a valuable team member for the Human Milk Bank. Karen worked on a postnatal ward supporting breastfeeding families and providing a parent education programme for new parents. She now works as a nanny for two children. She provides her lovely home to hold our baby massage classes.

About Classes:
Our courses
Our courses are designed for babies from birth to one year old. We like to keep our groups small between four to eight to keep things more personal to you. Each week you will learn how to massage a different part of your baby. We demonstrate the massage strokes on our own specially-designed dolls so it is only you that massages your own baby.

We provide you with a booklet containing all the massage strokes and other information to include a colic/digestive support routine. We also give you your own bottle of organic massage oil. A freshly cleaned towel and mat will be ready for you each week to use for your baby. You are most welcome to bring anything for you or your baby which makes you feel comfortable.

We also make time for you. This includes a discussion time together and a short relaxation session. There are snacks and cold drinks provided throughout the session and we end with a hot drink. We love to welcome you into a fun and informal environment, We encourage you to feed, cuddle or play with your baby during a session if that need arises and a crying baby is a welcome part of of our group.

Our strong belief is to empower new parents by learning the benefits of baby massage and to enjoy a lovely five weeks.

Our baby massage classes are run over five weeks on a Wednesday from 11.30am to 12.45am.

The cost for five sessions is £70.
