Catherine teaches parents the art of communicating and connecting with their baby through nurturing touch. For baby, massage and nurturing touch is a key form of bonding with parents. This vital bond forms the foundation for future interpersonal relationships. An awareness of baby’s cues is essential to tapping into the extensive list of documented benefits infant massage has to offer growing babies and their parents. In gaining a greater understanding of communication cues, it helps the parent to determine if baby is ready to receive massage, and also when they have had enough. This is the clear advantage of a relationship based infant massage course, as opposed to merely learning a sequence of massage strokes, which can be easily found in magazines, books and online videos.
During an infant massage course, parents will learn how to identify baby’s cues, how to maximise the connection with their baby using all the elements of bonding, tips for accommodating various growth and developmental stages and a series of massage strokes including techniques to assist with colic and wind.
For more information about this gold standard in infant massage courses, please contact Catherine on 0466 464 772 or info@catherinedore.com.au. Next group course starts in March at Gordon Park.
