Baby Massage Class

Welcome,

Join our group baby massage class in Langley, designed for parents and caregivers of infants 2 weeks to 12 months. In this class you’ll learn safe, soothing techniques to help support your baby’s sleep, digestion, bonding, and emotional well-being — all taught by a licensed massage therapist with a specialized certification with the International Association of Infant Massage (IAIM).

The class includes hands-on instruction, time for questions, and take-home resources so you can confidently use what you learn at home. Your instructor will be demonstrating each stroke on a doll at the front of the class. You’ll follow along with your own baby, practicing at your own pace. We go slow, with plenty of time for feeding, soothing, or cuddling - because real life with babies is welcome here.

Here is what you can expect to learn:

Massage for the Legs and Feet + Gentle Movements

Massage for the Stomach and for the Relief of Colic / Gas

Massage for the Chest and Arms

Massage for the Face and Back

About Your Instructor

Your instructor, Victoria Falcicchio, is a BC Registered Massage Therapist who is also certified by the International Association of Infant Massage. Most importantly, she is a mother first and a healthcare provider second. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Physiology and Kinesiology from Simon Fraser University and her role will be to facilitate and support parents as they connect with their babies through the nurturing power of touch.

Cost and Location

The cost of this class is $45 - this includes handouts and take-home resources. The class is 90 minutes long which includes discussions, education around baby massage and hands-on practice time. Our location is Willoughby, Langley in a brand new yoga studio that has lots of natural light.

Would you enjoy round 2? Some people feel like a second class is helpful to further hone their massage skills. Any follow-up session is 30% off.

Hope to see you soon!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Baby massage has shown some incredible benefits but to name a few: it can reduce colic, helps babies sleep longer, reduces stress for both parents and babies, boosts relaxation hormones, aids parents in recovering from postnatal depression, and builds confidence in parenting skills.

  • Learning along with other parents from an Infant Massage Instructor is a hands-on, interactive and personal experience. Infant Massage instructors teach each of the strokes one-by-one so you will feel comfortable and confident that you are doing them correctly.

    Infant Massage Instructors also help you understand your baby’s responses and can help answer any questions you may have about touch, bonding/attachment and other topics.

  • Introducing touch can start soon after birth. Start with skin-to-skin care. This involves placing your baby on your chest to facilitate close contact between you and your baby (dads love this!). By following your baby’s cues, looking for signs of being quiet and alert, you can begin massage during the first few weeks after birth and then gradually develop a nurturing routine that will last a lifetime.

  • We actually encourage this so you can further work on your massage skills and make other connections with parents in the area.
