What parents love
“Bree was easy to understand and explained how to do each type of massage simply to someone who has no massage background. My 8 month old was super wiggly and not too into getting the massage at times, but Bree never showed frustration and assured me that I was doing the right thing by letting my baby play when she wanted to. My baby is now more used to getting massages and the techniques I learned have helped my baby relax before bedtime instead of fight it. I would recommend this class to anyone!” —Kaci, First Time Mom [online class participant]
Frequently asked questions
How old does my baby have to be to use these massage techniques?
You can use these techniques from birth through toddlerhood and beyond. Many parents work massage into their bedtime routines and use it far beyond the first year.
How long are the course sessions?
The entire course is broken up into 7 sessions with each session being 2-13 minutes long. This allows you to simply work massage into your daily life and to easily find and focus on specific areas.
How is this course different than other infant massage classes?
This course is taught by a seasoned and licensed pediatric occupational therapist and mom who can answer both clinical and more personal questions. The course is focused on adding massage into your daily routines, focusing on the bonding and interaction throughout the day, instead of setting aside long periods of time each day to reserve for a full body massage. As with all things here at Sprout and Thrive, you will leave this course empowered and confident, with science-based strategies that fit into your already busy days.
What if my baby doesn’t cooperate?
That is totally fine! This is a course for babies; if baby wants to roll over, sit up, or play a little bit, let them! You can try to bring baby back to the massage after a few minutes to see if they are ready to continue. If not, come back later when baby is needing something new again! The most important part is that you follow your baby’s lead and remain flexible.
