BIRCH HOLISTICS & BABY BIRCH

I’m Katherine, a 5 star rated baby massage instructor and early years teacher. I create spaces where you and your baby feel calm, confident and cherished in order to experience that benefits of baby massage. I teach you ways that you can settle, soothe and support your baby’s growing body through gentle touch and movement.

I will guide you through a 6 week baby massage course; delivering beautiful massage strokes and sequences which with regular use will enable you to strengthen your special bond with your baby, reduce crying, and help you both to understand each other better. 

Over the six weeks, I will teach you a full body massage sequence that you can use at home to help soothe and support your baby's developing body. Each weekly baby massage class will focus on a different body part and will be brought together to form the full body sequence. Regular baby massage also supports you baby to develop good muscle tone and coordination, supporting those early physical milestones. Baby massage is known to support the circulatory and digestive systems which can really help during the bouts of colic, constipation and trapped wind that our little ones often suffer with. In addition it can help your littel one to sleep for longer, more restful bouts and can boost their immune system! 

In addition to learning a fully body massage to settle, soothe and support your baby, I have two specific short baby massage sequences to teach you, which directly targets the discomforting symptoms of colic and teething. 

Our baby massage classes are suitable from birth until baby becomes an active crawler. It is taught in welcoming and supportive groups of up to 10 and classes runs for about 45 minutes.
