infant massage, 5 week series.
it’s more than massage, trust us.
infant massage has been studied and practiced for decades and has been shown to help stimulate babies to support them in their development and growth. this technique also assists in relaxing and soothing babies, especially those experiencing colic or other challenging temperaments. pssst… a massaged/stimulated baby is more likely to soothe faster, sleep more and gain faster.
adding a short and simple, proven massage technique into your daily routine has proven to greatly benefit babies development and temperament. learn to better bond and connect with your baby and your local village/community in 5 weeks of one hour sessions. IAIM’s technique is best learned when your little one is 12 months old or younger.
classes are lead by me, Courtney Jenkins, a local doula and certified trainer with the International Association of Infant Massage. Access community and peer support while bonding with your little one and finding an excuse to leave the house on those lonely, boring days.
all families who attend my classes will receive handouts to complete massage in their daily lives along with a custom massage oil.

comforts + supports in labour.
led by Courtney Jenkins, doula + childbirth educator.
birth bags are great (and I will teach you to pack one someday too), but I promise only a small amount of those thoughtfully chosen and packed items will be put to use in labour. equip yourself and your support people with simple tools and strategies to work with labour.
in this session you and your support person will learn…
to work with, not against your body in labour
hands on techniques that ease the sensation of labour
hands on techniques that offer your body assistance, making for more productive labour
positions to allow for more power and control in labuoring + pushing
ways to set a calming, safe environment to allow labour to progress, not stall

infant massage, 5 week series.
it’s more than massage, trust us.
infant massage has been studied and practiced for decades and has been shown to help stimulate babies to support them in their development and growth. this technique also assists in relaxing and soothing babies, especially those experiencing colic or other challenging temperaments. pssst… a massaged/stimulated baby is more likely to soothe faster, sleep more and gain faster.
adding a short and simple, proven massage technique into your daily routine has proven to greatly benefit babies development and temperament. learn to better bond and connect with your baby and your local village/community in 5 weeks of one hour sessions. IAIM’s technique is best learned when your little one is 12 months old or younger.
classes are lead by me, Courtney Jenkins, a local doula and certified trainer with the International Association of Infant Massage. Access community and peer support while bonding with your little one and finding an excuse to leave the house on those lonely, boring days.
all families who attend my classes will receive handouts to complete massage in their daily lives along with a custom massage oil.
