In-Person Infant Massage Series (Baby and Me)

Infant Massage Course 

What:

Infant massage is an accessible way to connect with your baby! Join us for a 3-week interactive class specifically designed for LGBTQ+ parents with infants. This series provides a unique opportunity to learn and practice the basics of respectful, connective touch, fostering a deeper bond with your little one.

This Group is facilitated by Gingi Allen, Licensed Midwife, Health Advocate, and Mother.

Benefits of Infant Massage:

• Enhances parent-baby bonding

• Supports healthy sleep habits

• Aids in digestion and eases colic

• Boosts immune function and circulation

• Promotes relaxation and reduces stress for both baby and parent

What to bring: To ensure a sanitary and comfortable environment conducive to the success of our sessions, we kindly ask that you bring the following items:

• Blanket or Towel: Please bring a blanket or towel for your baby to lay on during our sessions

• Massage Oil: If you already know which oils work best for you and your baby, please bring those along. If you haven't tried any oils yet, we recommend jojoba or coconut oil.

For your convenience, we will also have a supply of extra oils available in our office for those who may not have access to any. Your cooperation helps us maintain a clean and welcoming space for everyone.
