Baby yoga & massage for babies aged 3 months+, Bishops Stortford, Essex

Please bring a mat, a pillow, a muslin and a blanket. I will provide organic oil to use on your baby. If you would rather bring your own please do.
Learning and engaging in baby massage and yoga routines can be a wonderful experience for your baby – but can also really help parents who might be struggling with a lack of connection to their baby. For anyone who has taken part in antenatal education classes, you’ll no doubt have been taught that loving touch creates oxytocin, the love hormone. The stimulation of oxytocin is often used to trigger childbirth, but it is also vital for physical and mental health and wellbeing in children and adults alike. Physical touch also increases levels of dopamine and serotonin in the body – two neurotransmitters that help regulate your mood and relieve stress and anxiety. So any class that majors on that parent-child connection of touch and being held will be an enormously beneficial experience for both parties.
