This early-autumn Bologna course offers a reflective pause after the summer months. Paola supports participants in revisiting their own attitudes to touch, crying and parental stress, creating a safe space for honest conversation. Alongside IAIM theory and practice, you look closely at how to build trust with families and work alongside other professionals. The group often includes a blend of health staff, psychologists and educators, which keeps discussions grounded and realistic. By the final session you will have a clearer sense of your professional role and a practical framework for running sensitive, parent-centred infant massage groups in your setting.

This option provides a second early-autumn window for the same online IAIM training with Paola. Content and structure mirror the other course, but the different dates may suit your work rota or personal commitments better. The mood is interactive and informal, with plenty of space for questions about working in hospitals, community settings or private practice. Participants frequently comment that the online groups feel surprisingly close-knit, thanks to frequent small-group tasks and shared reflection. If you want the flexibility of remote learning while still building strong professional links, this course offers a practical, human-centred way to deepen your skills.

The December online course with Francesca provides a cosy, end-of-year space to focus on attachment, touch and parental wellbeing from home. Sessions combine live teaching, small-group tasks and individual reflection, allowing you to absorb the IAIM material at a steady pace. Many participants appreciate the chance to finish the year with learning that feels meaningful and gentle, rather than rushed. The online format makes it easy to attend even when winter travel is difficult, and you still gain rich contact with colleagues from around Italy. It is a thoughtful way to close the year with renewed clarity and purpose.
