Additional Breastfeeding information

 

 

 

 

A baby's needs are simple...(breast)milk and loving touch.

 

Too much of our time as mothers is spent attempting to fit our baby into a routine.  Allowing yourself to be guided by your baby will facilitate a greater understanding of your baby as a unique individual, promoting bonding and a greater enjoyment of early motherhood.

 

 

 

Sleep and Settling

Baby Massage helps to promote improved sleep and settling in your baby in a number of ways:

bullet

Infant relaxation and release of endorphins

bulletImproves sleep by increasing serotonin and regulating melatonin secretion rhythms  (Melatonin is secreted more at night to help induce sleep, and aids in the regulation of circadian rhythms)
bulletReduces stress hormone levels in children and their parents
bulletParent relaxation and release of endorphins
bulletReduces crying
bulletEnhances bonding and attachment

For Baby Massage classes or private consults please see the Baby Massage page for more information
