ALL ABOUT CHERISH BABY MASSAGE
I am Kim, mum to Sophia aged four and James aged two. When Sophia was born she suffered from colic and I found it a really isolating experience. Rather than reach out for help we spent far too much time hiding away at home. I felt that I must be doing something wrong because I often wasn't able to calm her quickly. I wish then that I had known about the soothing effects of baby massage as I know it would have been a very different experience.
​
When James was born I was determined for history not to repeat itself so I signed up to various classes one of which was baby massage. I experienced first hand the calming, soothing effects of the massage strokes both for me and James (who lapped up the experience and often fell into a lovely relaxed sleep straight after class). I looked forward to the classes as it was my special time bonding with James and I met some other lovely mums.
​
Inspired by this positive experience of baby massage I went on to complete a qualification with the International Association for Infant Massage and set up Cherish Baby Massage. I look forward to sharing my passion with you and welcoming you to the group classes.
