☀️🌙 Sun & Moon Baby Massage Magic 🌙☀️

How the time has flown! It’s hard to believe our 5-week baby massage journey has come to an end. It’s been such a joy to watch your little ones grow and blossom, and to witness the special bonds forming between babies—and parents too!

Our Sun and Moon photo shoot was the perfect way to celebrate. The babies looked absolutely gorgeous, floating up in the clouds amongst the golden sun and glowing moon 🌤️✨—a dreamy nod to the key strokes we use in baby massage.

These gentle techniques not only help soothe and calm, but also build a deeper connection through nurturing touch. I hope you’re all continuing to enjoy those special moments at home this summer—and that the friendships made during our time together last a lifetime 💛

Thank you for sharing your beautiful babies with us. Until next time… 🌞🌙

✨ Final day of baby massage! 🎓💛

Today was extra special as we wrapped up our course with a graduation party. On our last day, we learnt the gentle movement strokes designed to help little ones with coordination, flexibility and overall wellbeing. 🌿✨

We celebrated with music, bubbles, and the most beautiful cakes and biscuits lovingly made by Jasmine – including a gorgeous strawberry cake inspired by Wimbledon! 🍓🎾 Thank you so much, Jasmine, for the delicious treats! 🍰🫧

It’s been wonderful to see the bonds blossom between mums and babies each week, and we hope this class has helped you build friendships that will last a lifetime. ❤️

We also had a magical photo shoot with our babies ‘in the sky’, surrounded by the sun and moon – symbols that feature so beautifully in baby massage. ☀️🌙

Everyone graduated with flying colours – you all did brilliantly! 🎉👏

Thank you for joining us on this journey – wishing you and your little ones lots of love and calm moments ahead. 🌸

Another lovely baby massage session with our wonderful Royal Navy families 💙👶

This week, we focused on colic relief, revisiting strokes for the stomach, arms, and chest to support digestion and calm discomfort. We also had a great discussion around crying, understanding the signs of colic, and simple, effective ways to help manage it at home.

It’s always so special to share these nurturing techniques and see the confidence and connection grow between parents and babies each week 💫

Next week is all about tummy time! We’ll explore strokes for the back and face – perfect for relieving teething pain and sinus congestion, while also supporting your baby’s strength and development.

Looking forward to seeing you all then! 🧸💆‍♀️

Moments like these make my heart melt! 💕 Watching this little one with their mum, surrounded by all the sweet babies I get to teach baby massage to, making the cutest cooing sounds, is pure joy. 🍼👶 Each coo, giggle, and smile reminds me how powerful touch and connection can be for both mums and their little ones.

We had such a wonderful baby massage class today, where we learned the strokes for the face and back, and even had some time for tummy time! The little ones did amazingly well for their first session, and I’ve captured some adorable moments to share with you all. 🥰

We also had a special guest this week—welcome, Baby Oscar, to our week four class! 🎉 It was great to see all the babies enjoying their time together.

In class, we also explored infant cues—understanding when babies are engaged or showing disengaged signals. It’s so important to know how to read these cues, and I loved sharing these insights with all the parents.

Check out the cutest photos from today’s class!
