Milan’s IAIM course has a particularly energetic feel, reflecting the city’s busy professional life. Francesca blends clear structure with warm encouragement, supporting even shy participants to practise presenting to parents. You will examine how infant massage fits within urban family life, neonatal services and private studios, and you will leave with concrete ideas for outreach and collaboration. Group work helps you sharpen communication skills and learn from colleagues in related fields. Many attendees use this training as a springboard for new projects, from hospital groups to partnerships with family centres, all centred on respectful touch and attuned listening.

The Turin November course offers a thoughtful space as the year begins to wind down. Francesca brings a calm, organised approach, helping you break the IAIM curriculum into manageable steps for parents. Through role-play and practice, you refine your language, posture and pacing so that parents feel competent rather than judged. Participants often comment that the course helps them reconnect with the reasons they chose to work with babies and families in the first place. It is a good choice if you want to finish the year with new skills, clearer plans and a renewed sense of professional purpose.

Held shortly after the Turin course, this Rome training offers another chance to work with Francesca in a central Italian setting. The group typically includes a rich mix of hospital staff, community workers and private practitioners, making discussions wide-ranging and practical. You will refine your skills in reading infant cues, supporting parents’ confidence and facilitating group conversations. Special attention is given to working with families carrying heavy stress loads, such as prematurity, migration or social isolation. Many participants leave Rome feeling better equipped to hold both joy and difficulty in their groups, while keeping babies’ wellbeing at the heart of their work.

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.
