No previous massage experience is needed. The sessions are streamed live, so you learn alongside other participants and can ask Mary Beattie questions as you go, without the cost of travel.

Your learning journey

Much of the training is practical. You will practise the strokes on a doll, learn to read a baby’s cues, and plan how to run a five-week class for parents. Mary Beattie will also cover the adaptations IAIM instructors use for premature babies, babies with additional needs and older, more active infants.

Becoming a certified instructor

Certification is completed in your own community: you teach a full series of classes to parents, document the experience and sit an open-book exam. When you pass, you become a Certified Infant Massage Instructor (CIMI) and join a worldwide network of instructors, supported locally by your national chapter in the UK.
