Upcoming Infant Massage Afternoon Sessions (0-6 Months) at Triwood

October 31 – November 21, 2023 (Tuesdays); 12:30pm – 2:30pm

This class will teach parents of infants (6 weeks – 6 months old) how to use a nurturing touch to connect with baby and support growth and development in this unique way. The parents can use the techniques at home to provide a full body massage to their little ones. Infant Massage is offered in-person at our Triwood Family Resource Centre. 

Research suggests that infant massage provides various health benefits including:

• Increased attachment between parent and baby
• Helps baby relax and sleep
• Positively affects infant hormones that reduce stress
• A method to calm baby when distressed

Join us as you learn to systematically and safely massage each part of your baby. These sessions include safe massage techniques, resources/question time, as well as a coffee time to meet other babies and parents to form friendships and support. We may even sing some lullabies! Your facilitator, Natalie, is a Certified Holistic Pregnancy Massage Therapist, as well as a Hypno Birthing Childbirth Educator and Doula.

**Please register for One Adult Participant and up to Two Infant Participants. There is no additional childcare and space is limited.**
