We recommend having at least one baby massage instruction session prior to delivery to enhance your bonding experience with your baby immediately following delivery (with permission from the doctor).
Instructional literature and supporting research is provided as part of all classes.
The post-natal support visits consist of in-home baby care assistance, emotional support and a massage refresher.
Four (4) 1-hour group lessons $100 ($25/lesson)
There are two options for group lessons:
You get a group together and we will come to your home to provide the instruction. As the host, you will receive a 15% discount. Maximum of 5 people per group session.
The 1st class includes background information about infant massage as well as an introduction to the techniques for the feet and legs. The 2nd class includes a review of the feet and legs, discussion of relevant studies done, and instruction on techniques for the tummy, chest, and arms. The 3rd class includes review of previous techniques and learning new ones for the back and face, as well as reflexology. The 4th and final class covers all previous techniques and reflexology for specific problems.
Two (2) 90min private lssons $200 ($100/lesson)
The private lesson covers the same techniques as the group lessons (see above), but includes more attention to you and your baby's specific needs. We will come to your home for these sessions.
1-hour post-natal support visits ($50/visit)
We come to your home to provide emotional support and common-sense suggestions for post-natal concerns. We also provide a review of massage techniques.
