You are the only one who massages your baby. The instructor will use a doll for demonstration. The massage strokes are reviewed each week. Please bring a towel and changing mat long with your changing bag. It is ideal for you to wear loose, comfortable clothing so that you can sit comfortably on the floor.

Most importantly - we welcome babies to be babies, so please do not be concerned about class times coinciding with their sleep or feed times. There will be bottle warming facilities available, Massage strokes will be repeated each week so if you are feeding, or your baby's sleeping, you won't miss out.
