You will learn the strokes & techniques for safe healthy touch on your baby. This is for the typically healthy full term baby both "pre-crawlers" and "pre-walkers"
When registering you will select one of the following 2 options for this parent/baby class series
Pre Crawlers Class
For Infants 6 weeks old through “not yet crawling”
Cruisers Class
For Crawlers through Toddlers (beginning walkers)
We will discuss more about the instant benefits along with the ongoing lifelong benefits and how you might adapt massage patterns as your child grows. Learn more about the benefits of this class and other classes offered Here.
The instructor will demonstrate on a doll as you massage your baby. You may bring one other adult to the class with you. This should be someone who also loves your child and is interested in their well being. If they would like they may practice right along with us, using a doll which we provide. Learn more about the Center for Touch & the Instructor Here.
Bring a blanket for your baby to lay on and your own personal baby items such as diapers & wipes as these are not provided.

You can find these forms to print out at the Registration page where there are instructions on the registration process. No one is admitted into this class without these forms. It is recommended that you wait until you have these forms signed before you pay and register .
*If your baby was born premature but is stable and thriving well and not under a providers care for any immediate specific diagnosis, than it is possible that you may attend this class, rather than the Gentle Touch class, after consulting with the instructor.
