About Serene Baby Infant Massage
Welcome to Serene Baby Infant Massage.
I would like to give you a little bit of an introduction about myself and how Serene Baby came about. I am a qualified Registered Nurse and Midwife and have been working in the profession for the last 7 years. I am extremely passionate about infant mental health and development, so after some thorough research into infant massage and how it aids development, bonding & attachment I decided to further my training to become an IAIM Infant Massage Instructor.
I completed my Infant Massage Instructor training through the International Association of Infant Massage (IAIM) earlier this year and absolutely love seeing the benefits of massage in my classes, not only for infants but also for parents. The first sense to be developed from an early gestation (approx 8 weeks) is that of touch, thus highlighting the importance of skin to skin after birth and beyond. Massage has been used in society for many years and has been shown to aid infant mental health and development which is why I feel it is an essential tool for parents to have.
I am currently running Baby Massage classes in Danesfort Community Centre each Saturday for 5 consecutive weeks. The classes are all about being relaxed and bonding with your babies whilst learning about the art of baby massage. The most important point to note is that all classes are baby-led which means attending to baby’s needs as required. Chats and discussions are incorporated into all classes each week and will finish with tea/coffee and treats for parents. The classes are a great social outlet for parents to meet other parents, to discuss parenting experiences and just to relax and escape from the stresses of everyday life.
