It gave me so much more than I expected
Aimee created a lovely, safe atmosphere where there was no judgement, even when he had a cry or feed. It gave me a chance to build my confidence connect with my baby and make friends for life

Join us for beautiful baby massage and gentle postnatal wellbeing.
Baby Massage + Postnatal Wellbeing (Graft Pilates, Kings Heath, Wednesdays)
Baby massage suits the early weeks best, from around six weeks until your baby starts rolling. Over the course you'll learn comforting strokes a part of the body at a time, including the ones that ease trapped wind and help settle the unsettled stretch that often comes in the early evening. Babies this age aren't doing a great deal yet, so the pace stays slow and quiet, and you'll leave each week with something you can use at home.
For many mums this is the first class they've come to since the birth, so the postnatal side matters as much as the massage. Each session leaves time for you as well, to talk through the questions that feel pressing in the early weeks and to find the other mums are sitting with the same ones. You will make a treasured keepsake each week to take home.

A softer way to begin getting out with your baby.
Baby Massage is usually most suitable from around 6 weeks until babies become able to roll. In most cases, premature babies would attend in line with their adjusted age (dependent on their medical history)
Just whatever you’d normally bring for yourself and your baby. Mats, oils and class materials are provided.
Sessions include gentle baby massage, relaxed discussion, responsive settling, and space to slow down a little together. The atmosphere is calm and unhurried.
Something easy to remove and put back on comfortably. Babies are usually massaged in just their nappy so they can enjoy skin-to-skin contact and movement freely. something comfortable for you to sit in.
I know life with a baby can be unpredictable. If space allows, I’ll always try to offer either a catch-up session in a future block or a Baby Yoga space instead. Videos are sent following the sessions.
The first session is designed for one parent and baby, and we can discuss partners or family members attending if this is suitable amongst the group.
The environment is designed to feel warm, calm and responsive to babies’ needs. Feeding, changing, cuddling, moving around and taking breaks are all completely welcome.
There are car parks off the high street, pay to park, and 90 minutes free options at Aldi and Asda. There is also residential parking nearby.
The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, but there’s never any pressure to socialise at all. Conversation is facilitated or tends to happen naturally and is optional. Some mums choose to meet up after the classes.

All the while mums are able to wind down, reflect and connect with other mums. Would definitely recommend this baby class to new mums and take it up myself again if I had another.
