Next new set: Wednesday the 17th of November 2021

"It has been lovely being out and meeting other mums and babies this summer as my birth and new born experience from April to June was a very lonely one in a lot of ways due to covid lockdown. It has had many positives but I feel that myself and many other new parents and new babies have received less support and reassurance at this time. I was delighted to do Angela's baby massage course to have an opportunity to learn new skills for bonding with and helping my little boy Oisin, but also to network with other mums and babies. I have felt safe and comfortable in Angela's lovely home centre/therapy room and feel that she has taken all necessary measures to follow public health guidelines. I've really enjoyed the 5 week course and would recommend it to other new mothers". - A Baby Massage Client..

Massage is a wonderful way to augment the important early bonding of parents and their infants. It is also very powerful in relieving colic and other symptoms of infant stress. Gentle touch is vital for babies existence and allows them to feel loved and secure. Infant massage is carried out daily as part of the routine for example when changing the babies nappy. The emphasis of infant massage is on communication of parent and baby.

Classes are designed around the baby and is taught at a pace that suits both parent and baby. The techniques used are based on the work of Vimala McClure, author of Infant Massage a Hand book for Loving Parents and the founder of the organization IAIM. As an infant massage instructor I feel that infant massage should be part of the development of the child and not just at the baby stage. Through out the classes there are tips on how to continue the massage through out their young lives and most of all make it fun.

I found the environment so safe for both me and my baby to do the course in. Not once did it enter my head of Covid as you and your work place felt so safe and comfortable. It felt so nice to do something with other mammies during these strange times and I looked forward to your class every week. - Baby Massage Client.

I'm so delighted I decided to do the baby massage classes with Angela, all guidelines were adhered to, social distancing, cleaning etc, I felt safe and relaxed, it was lovely meeting other mothers and their babies, we had plenty of laughs along the way" - A Baby Massage Client

I attended the baby massage classes in July. I was initially worried about doing any kind of classes in current climate especially with a 9 week old but was immediately reassured by all the precautions Angela has in place - the cleanliness of the studio, the small class size and the social distancing between mats etc. I felt completely safe and at ease and thoroughly enjoyed the classes and the chats at the end of the classes with the other new mums. Would highly recommend. - Baby Massage Client.
