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.
