SUMMARY:Ennis, Co Clare, Ireland
DESCRIPTION: Language: English\nTrain as an infant massage instructor in Ennis, Co Clare, with midwife and IAIM Trainer Kirsty Hawthorn. This in-person course runs over four days, from 7 to 10 September 2027, and welcomes midwives, public health nurses, childminders, doulas and parents from Clare, Galway, Limerick and the wider West of Ireland. Read how to become a Certified Infant Massage Instructor ( https://iaim.net/become-an-instructor/ ) and check the training FAQs ( https://iaim.net/faqs-to-become-an-instructor/ ) before you book. Can’t make these dates? Kirsty also runs an IAIM instructor training in Mitchelstown starting 8 March 2027 ( https://iaim.net/events/mitchelstown-co-cork-ireland-2027/ ) and an IAIM instructor training in Portlaoise starting 24 May 2027 ( https://iaim.net/events/portlaoise-co-laois-ireland-2027/ ).\nWho can take part\nIAIM instructors come from many walks of life. On this course you are likely to meet midwives and nurses, psychologists, social workers, baby-group leaders, yoga teachers and parents, all sharing an interest in supporting early bonding through loving touch. Meeting in Ennis means you learn hands-on in a small group, practising with dolls and observing a real parent-and-baby session under Kirsty Hawthorn’s guidance.\n\nFormat: In person in Ennis\nLocation: Ennis, Co. Clare, Ireland\nLanguage: English\nIAIM Trainer: Kirsty Hawthorn\nQualification: Certified Infant Massage Instructor (CIMI), after completing certification\n\nWhat the course covers\nOver the course you will work through the IAIM 15-point core curriculum created by our founder, Vimala McClure ( https://iaim.net/our-founder/ ). You will learn the full infant massage routine, how to teach it to parents rather than massaging babies yourself, and how to adapt each stroke as a baby grows from birth to one year. Time is also given to babies born prematurely and babies with additional needs.\nWhat happens next\nYour learning continues after the final day. You will complete a practical certification with real families and a written assignment, with guidance from Kirsty Hawthorn, before qualifying as a Certified Infant Massage Instructor (CIMI). You can then teach in private, group, hospital and community settings across Ireland, and keep developing through continuing education ( https://iaim.net/instructors-continuing-education/ ).\nQuestions and bookings\nHave a question before you book?
