Infant Massage is a great way to connect to your baby. Studies have shown infant massage can help babies sleep better, gain weight, reduce fussiness, improve health and relax. Parents who massage their babies often experience increased closeness to and understanding of their infants, reduced stress and post-natal depression, and simply enjoy a wonderful experience with their child.

Come for just one day or for all three days to learn the full massage. Bring your baby and your partner, if available. This is a great class for fathers! Pack a towel or baby blanket you do not mind getting oil on, and a change of diapers and clothes. You will be the only one massaging your baby.

This parent-baby class is part of an Infant Massage Parent Educator Training, run by Jody Wright CEIM CLC, trainer for Infant Massage USA (infantmassageusa.org <http://infantmassageusa.org/> ). Jody Wright is a founder of the International Association of Infant Massage, with its international offices in Sweden (iaim.net <http://iaim.net/> ). She is a lactation counselor, served as the president of the Motherwear catalog for 20 years, and is a mother of five who lives in Northampton, Massachusetts.
