Parent-Baby Massage Class is a weekly class for 5 weeks and repeats every 5 weeks. It's baby-led with a progressive sequence to learn a complete routine.

I feel we are in clearer communication with our baby now, she is sleeping better and her digestion is improved after her massage. Wonderful, essential class for parents.

Learn to communicate with confidence, understand baby's cues, sleep more, enjoy less crying and improve baby's health, digestion, and all bodily functions. Loving massage can increase muscle tone, improve baby's motor skills, IQ, teach respect and trust. Soothe, repair, and improve security and relaxation for baby and you!

Parent-Baby Massage Class is a weekly class for 5 weeks and repeats every 5 weeks. It's baby-led with a progressive sequence to learn a complete routine. We welcome babies in any mood and respect their needs. The classroom will be extra warm for the babies so parents may be more comfortable to wear casual clothes in layers. Please use baby's favorite blanket during class.

I can’t say enough how much taking Dakota’s infant massage class helped my husband and I to connect and soothe our baby. It’s calming for us as much as for baby and something we plan to continue doing for years to come!
— Susan and Josh Herman
I feel we are in clearer communication with our baby now, she is sleeping better and her digestion is improved after her massage. Wonderful, essential class for parents.
