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. Crystal Miles will also cover the adaptations IAIM instructors use for premature babies, babies with additional needs and older, more active infants.
Becoming a certified instructor
Your learning continues after the final day. You will complete a practical certification with real families and a written assignment, with guidance from Crystal Miles, before qualifying as a Certified Infant Massage Instructor (CIMI). You can then teach in private, group, hospital and community settings across the UK, and keep developing through continuing education.
