Who should attend

Whether 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. Meeting in London means you learn hands-on in a small group, practising with dolls and observing a real parent-and-baby session under Crystal Miles’s guidance.

• Format: In person in London
• Location: London, England, UK
• Language: English
• IAIM Trainer: Crystal Miles

Inside the training

You will learn how to teach parents to massage their own babies in a way that respects the baby’s cues and invites them to take part. The sessions cover the complete IAIM massage sequence, relaxation and attachment, easing colic and wind, and how to plan and lead classes in your own setting, all rooted in the philosophy of Vimala McClure.

Becoming a certified instructor

After 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. Crystal Miles supports you throughout, and once certified you become a Certified Infant Massage Instructor (CIMI). As an IAIM member you can then rely on the IAIM chapter in the UK for ongoing support.
