Please note: Baby Massage is safe to practice from birth. We recommend that babies are over 6 weeks old before beginning baby massage so that mum/baby have had their post-birth check up- however if you are feeling well/healthy we are happy for you to come along before this. Baby Massage is suitable for babies all the way up until they are on the move (crawling). What’s included/what to bring: • 4 weeks of face-to-face teaching • An email sent out before with advice on which oils to buy and how to prepare for the course. • A handy visual handout is provided with every massage move to support practicing at home. • No special equipment needed - BYOB: Bring Your Own Blanket, and perhaps your baby's favourite toy. T&C’s: Tickets are for 1 parent and baby to attend. If you would like someone to come along with you for a class, please pop us an email beforehand so we can ensure there is enough space. Refunds: In the rare occasion that a class needs to be cancelled (perhaps due to staff sickness etc) a part refund will be issued for that class. Cancellations: If you are unable to make a class for any reason, we are unable to offer a part refund or exchange for another class- however we are happy for you to give your space away to a friend for that week.
