NEW For Dads Infant Massage Class. Saturday's May 11-June 8, 2024. !0:30am-12:30pm.

This course will empower DADS to feel useful, competent, and skilled in the care of their newborn. Come learn the skills for nurturing touch, recognizing cues, attending to your baby’s needs, how to soothe, and bond with your baby.

Research shows that dads have a significant and meaningful role in their children’s development. When dads take an active role in their child’s life and growth, this care and support helps the child develop into a happy, healthy, academically successful, and emotionally intelligent young adult. Further, if dads model a positive and equal relationship with their partner, their children are more likely to cultivate similar relationships when they grow up.

The bond between father and child starts early. Dads who care for and bond with their baby between the ages of 0-18 months old, are more likely to stay involved, actively care for their child, and be instrumental throughout their children’s lives in their health and well-being.

Baby massage is a powerful bonding gateway for dads. The four essential elements of bonding—touch, eye contact, vocalization, and smell—are present every time a mom breastfeeds their child. When a dad massages their baby, these essential elements are also present! Massage offers dads the opportunity to bond, soothe, nurture, touch, care for, and know their baby. When dads massage their babies, this promotes attachment, helps their babies with sleep, digestion, crying, activating all the babies’ bodily systems, and much more.

Join me for this 5-week baby massage class for dads ONLY! In each class we will talk about infant development, learn strokes, and take time for “dads only” group discussion. Together with other dads and their babies you will gain confidence in your role as dad, and in caring for your baby, while becoming an equal partner in the care of and nurturing of your newborn.

My passion to support families during the postpartum time began...

After my youngest child moved away from home two years ago I found that I had the time to consider what my life’s next work would be. While traveling, I met a postpartum doula in a client’s yard playing and caring for an infant. She briefly described her work as a postpartum doula, and I became inspired. As I listened, I instantly knew that this was work I could do, and do well. I realized my 23 years of experience as a mother and parent, my keen interest in how children develop, my innate ability to nurture, and the desire to do work that helps others, would help me to become an excellent postpartum doula. This revelation inspired me to pursue the work of supporting families after the birth of their children.

As I delved into my training, studied, researched, talked with other doulas, and worked with mothers and families through the NAPS and DONA certification process, my motivation to be a postpartum doula grew and I began to see more clearly why I wanted to pursue this work. I am eager to honor and nurture women and families during the postpartum time. I want to give parents time and space to heal, learn about their newborn, discover their strengths, and adjust to the changes in their family. I endeavor to inspire them to create a “lovebubble”, a period in which time slows down, offering parents the opportunity to cherish and learn about their newborn, and to grow and evolve within themselves.

Warmly,

Gina Eiford, Certified Postpartum Doula NAPS
