Is this course right for you?

IAIM 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. Because the course is taught live online, you can take part from home, as long as you can join every session in real time with your camera switched on.

• Format: Live online (taught via live stream)
• Language: English
• IAIM Trainer: Juliana Dellinger
• Qualification: Certified Infant Massage Educator (CEIM), after completing certification

Your learning journey

Over the course you will work through the IAIM 15-point core curriculum created by our founder, Vimala McClure. 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.

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 Educator (CEIM) and join a worldwide network of instructors, supported locally by your national chapter in the USA.
