It’s an age old tradition among humans as well as instinctive behavior…nurturing, protecting, and providing for newborn babies. Science now has dazzling information to tell us what happens when we cuddle, what happens when we soothe, and what happens when we don’t. New parents are instinctive artists when it comes to loving their babies. They are scientists too, wanting the best and researching answers for the endless stream of questions that seem to start at conception.
With great support and great inner resources, you can handle the art and science of welcoming the new family member. In reality, there’s a lot of stress that goes with the new parenting 24/7 job. My CEIM colleagues and I are respectful guides to a world of communication, connection, and competence.
My aim is to have all new moms and dads ( in the US ) registering for infant massage class when their babies are 6 to 8 weeks of age. Infant Massage educators are multi talented health professionals. We have yet to strike the chord and stir the masses. That’s why I’m here to network with humanists who know how to reach through technology. I want to learn what will make us educators visible and what will enthuse parents to take advantage of our finely tuned and respectful guidance.
