Dad's Baby Massage Livestream Workshop Part 1 focuses on legs, feet and tummy . Part 2 focuses on chest, arms, face and back. Each part is standalone and booked separately, you can do either one without having done the other, or both in any order you choose.

 

Get to know your baby better through massage. These 1.5 hour workshops will give dads the tools and confidence they need to massage their babies to support their comfort and development.

​

Over the course of the workshop we’ll discuss the benefits of touch in general and massage in particular, and offer tips on establishing a regular routine at home.

 

You will learn more about your baby’s cues and developmental stages, and how different massage techniques can offer them relief from congestion, teething and other growing pains.

​

You’ll learn massage techniques for the mentioned areas of the body, observing along the way what they like, dislike and how to understand and respond to their needs. In the company of other fathers you will share experiences and advice on navigating this journey of parenthood.

​

WHAT YOU'LL NEED: 👶, something to sit on (a cushion or yoga block), a small towel, a baby blanket to put over the towel and any oil that you'd like to use for the massage. We recommend you use a cold pressed vegetable oil (grapeseed is good), or coconut/almond oil if that's not available.

​

Massage works best when you do it regularly! If you have already attended one of our workshops then feel free to come along, to learn how to massage different parts of the body and catch up with other dads you might have met before.
