Your learning journey
The programme follows the internationally recognised IAIM curriculum: the massage strokes, the reasons behind them, and the communication skills you need to guide parents with confidence. You will explore how nurturing touch supports bonding and secure attachment, and look at the evidence behind the benefits of infant massage for babies and their families.
After the training
Once you have finished the training, you join IAIM as a member and work towards certification with Kate Pigeon-Owen’s support. Certified instructors teach parents in homes, clinics, hospitals and community centres, and many go on to give talks, run in-service sessions or, after years of experience, train as IAIM Trainers themselves.
