Introduction to baby massage for maternity nannies in private households
In this three-hour evening seminar, you will learn the basics for a successful baby massage.
Studies show that babies who are massaged regularly cry less, sleep better, and gain weight. Massage helps babies become aware of their bodies and stimulates neurological development. In addition, the intensive time that parents consciously devote to their children during the massage strengthens the parent-child bond and helps them to get to know their babies better and to correctly assess their behavior. This in turn helps to make everyday family life more relaxed.
