SUMMARY:Northampton, MA, USA
DESCRIPTION: Language: English\nLed by IAIM Trainer Jody Wright, this in-person IAIM instructor training in Northampton, MA, USA takes place 28 September – 1 October 2027. The course is taught in English. Not sure what happens after the training? Our step-by-step guide to becoming a Certified Infant Massage Instructor ( https://iaim.net/become-an-instructor/ ) explains certification, and the training FAQs ( https://iaim.net/faqs-to-become-an-instructor/ ) cover prerequisites and online study. Can’t make these dates? IAIM also offers a live online IAIM instructor training (USA) starting 14 November 2026 ( https://iaim.net/events/usa-virtual-livestream-348/ ) and a live online IAIM instructor training (USA) starting 2 December 2026 ( https://iaim.net/events/usa-online-livestream-37/ ).\nWho should attend\nWhether you already support families in your work or are taking a first step into a new role, this course gives you an internationally recognised qualification and a clear, respectful method for teaching parents. It suits health and childcare professionals, therapists and parents alike. Training in person in Northampton gives you plenty of time to practise the strokes, ask questions and receive direct feedback from Jody Wright.\n\nFormat: In person in Northampton\nLocation: Northampton, MA, USA\nLanguage: English\nIAIM Trainer: Jody Wright\nQualification: Certified Infant Massage Educator (CEIM), after completing certification\n\nInside the training\nMuch of the training is practical.

Jody Wright will also cover the adaptations IAIM instructors use for premature babies, babies with additional needs and older, more active infants.\nCertification and beyond\nAfter the course you begin your certification: you teach a five-session series to families in your community, reflect on your experience and complete an open-book exam. Jody Wright supports you throughout, and once certified you become a Certified Infant Massage Educator (CEIM). As an IAIM member you can then rely on the IAIM chapter ( https://iaim.net/chapters/ ) in the USA for ongoing support.\nHow to book\nTo reserve your place, or to ask about fees and course materials, contact Jody Wright directly.
