About Me
Hello and welcome to Sevenoaks Baby Massage, my name is Lorraine and I am an IAIM infant massage instructor in Sevenoaks, Kent.
I have over 10 years experience of running baby massage classes in the local area and am trained as an International Association of Infant Massage Instructor, offering our accredited & internationally recognised course for you & your baby. Having a background in childcare and early years education, as well as holding a CPCAB Level 2 Certificate in Counselling Skills I can offer a safe and encouraging space for new parents in those early days, as part of my course I offer the opportunity for class discussions and time to connect with other new parents, which can be a valuable part of the time we spend together.
​
Being a mother of 3 children myself I know the value of nurturing touch and have seen the many benefits of baby massage for both parent and baby.
My classes offer you the opportunity to spend quality bonding time with your baby whilst learning how to massage safely over the 5 week course. I will guide you to learn the many benefits to massaging your baby and offer the opportunity for a chance to spend quality time with other parents whilst learning this valuable skill.
My weekly classes are run from the beautiful Sawmills Studios in Brasted near Sevenoaks and up to date course dates and times can be found on my socials.
Please feel free to contact me at any time on 07751950054 or email sevenoaksbabymassage@gmail.com
I look forward to welcoming you & your baby soon.
