BABY YOGA & MASSAGE - MUSIC AND MOVEMENT - MASSAGE MUSIC & MOVEMENT - CHILDREN'S YOGA - TREE BABIES AND CALMER STORIES

My name is Nikkita McCutcheon, Dip. Infant Massage and I am a qualified Baby / Infant Massage and Yoga Instructor, Toddler and Children's Yoga Instructor, Tree Babies Guide and Calmer Stories Instructor with 12 years teaching experience. I am based in Midsomer Norton, Somerset and I have three beautiful children, Joscelin (16) Kane (12) and Phoebe (3 yrs) and a very supportive husband, Damien. I currently run a range of classes during term time on Monday's at Dinder Village Hall, Wells for parents/carers to bring their little ones to as well as visiting local nurseries/early years settings weekly to bring Music and Movement and Children's Yoga to them as part of their extra curricular activities and to support the EYFS. I am an independent business (just me!) and not part of any Franchise and have been teaching now for 12 years! I have shared Baby Massage/ Yoga, Music & Movement, Toddler Yoga and more recently Calmer Stories with my children and my youngest Phoebe has attended my classes regularly. She knows many of the actions to our songs in Massage, Music and Movement and can regularly be seen sat on her own by the side of me joining in and massaging herself! All three of my children suffered with terrible colic in the early weeks and as we developed our baby massage routine and incorporated daily tummy massage, I was able to relieve their pain and discomfort. I run lots of "SPECIAL events" throughout the year, including a very popular Christmas, Mothers Day and Festival Special and have a wonderful local photographer - Somerset Photographer join us and she captures some wonderful photos for you to treasure for ever. I also regularly have another local lady join us who creates wonderful keepsake pottery... all of my events are VERY popular so booking early is always advised. All of my children are regulars at my specials and always get stuck in with setting up/singing etc. Its a real family affair! Family is VERY important to me, so I love being able to take them along when I can. I am a true believer that children who are nurtured and receive positive loving touch feel more confident, have better relationships and feel supported and loved. BRINGING MUSIC & MOVEMENT, CHILDREN'S YOGA AND CALMER STORIES TO LOCAL NURSERIES/PRESCHOOLS & EARLY YEARS SETTINGS
​Are you a local nursery/early years setting and looking for extra curricular activities? When I am not teaching parents and their children, you can find me bringing weekly and monthly Music & Movement and Children's Yoga sessions to local nurseries around the area, including The Learning Tree in Chilcompton, First Steps Day Nursery in Shepton Mallet, East Harptree Day Nursery, Sunflowers Day Nursery in Westfield and Hidden Garden Nursery in Midsomer Norton. I absolutely love working with the staff and children in all these settings and seeing the children grow and develop week on week, becoming more confident joining in and moving their bodies in different ways. Sessions support the EYFS and are a great addition to any nursery setting offering extra curricular sessions or wanting to offer this.

It’s moments like these that mean so so much to me. Shannon Thomas and Jack have been attending my classes since he was only a few weeks old (and now their family has grown, I get to watch baby Amelia growing up too ❤️) They have become such a big part of my classes, but also my friends. From starting with Baby Yoga and Massage and progressing to massage music and movement and now preschool music and movement… In fact, they now call me Aunty Kita 🥰 How cute is that ❤️
Today they presented me with some beautiful flowers, chocolates and a homemade birthday card. I never expect anything from those who attend my sessions, after all, they pay me to teach them and their children, but it’s moments like these that make me feel so special and I’m so incredibly grateful that I get to be a tiny part of peoples lives and watch their little ones grow and develop. Thank you 🥰

What a beautiful morning of teaching… from massage music and movement, preschool music and movement followed by my Baby Yoga and Massage drop in! We shared smiles, giggles, lots of singing, bonding, stretching and oxytocin. I think these photos sum up the morning beautifully. Thanks for sharing everyone and for joining me. I think the new drums and leaves songs are the firm favourite this term already. Same time next week!

It’s been a great first week back teaching in local nurseries - The Learning Tree Chilcompton, Sunflowers Day Nursery and First Steps Day Nursery. We’ve had fun singing about autumn leaves, playing our new drums, going on bike rides and have enjoyed Children’s Yoga themed around “settling in and starting nursery”… I can’t wait to share it all with East Harptree Nursery next week and watch the children grow in confidence at each setting over the next term 🤩 🍂 🧘‍♀️ 🎵 Thanks for having me 🥰

01/09/2025

A massive thank you to all 27 families who made it to classes today at Dinder. It was lovely to welcome lots of new faces, returning families and my regulars back. We had a great turnout to my drop in Baby Massage and Yoga with everyone enjoying some lovely yoga, singing, and leg massage. In massage music and movement the babies enjoyed some dry clothes massage, lots of action songs, parachute play and instruments and in my Preschool Music and Movement class we enjoyed lots of songs about the autumn, played with our new drums and had fun with leaves! There are NO CLASSES next week as Phoebe starts school part time, but we will be back on Monday 15th September for more fun 🤩 and bonding.

Our Story

Welcome to Patta Cake Baby Massage and Yoga!

My name is Nikkita McCutcheon, Dip. Infant Massage and I am a qualified Baby / Infant Massage and Yoga Instructor. I am based in Midsomer Norton, Somerset and have two children, Kane and Joscelin and a very supportive husband, Damien. Both of my children have experienced baby massage from an early age and it has been very beneficial. Family is very important to me and I have always loved working with children and really enjoyed attending Baby Massage Classes with both of my children. I realised that this was an area I really wanted to become involved in, by teaching baby and infant massage to other parents and thus Patta Cake Baby Massage was born! I am a small independent business (just me!) and am not part of any big franchise.

I usually run Baby Massage, Baby Yoga and Massage, Music and Movement classes on a Monday morning in ​Shepton Mallet during term time.

However, I am currently offering Virtual/Live Online courses and workshops through Zoom during the Covid-19 Lockdown. If you would like to join me for any classes, do get in touch and check out my page for more information on course dates.
