BENEFITS OF MASSAGE TO BABY
Baby massage promotes a special bond between baby and parent,studies have shown routine touch and massage can lead to improved physiological,cognitive,emotional and social development of your child.
Health benefits include reduction in stress and anxiety,symptoms of colic and constipation can be relieved,blood and lymphatic circulation is increased providing the cells with oxygen and nutrients.

Great Baby Massage Course
Nicola’s baby massage course is such a great way to learn how to connect with your baby and form part of a lovely bedtime routine. Her class was easily digestible (which is ideal when you’re lacking in sleep!) and covers all of the components to help make sure your baby is as comfortable and relaxed as poss. The wind and colic technique has been invaluable to getting our little one out of the grumbles whilst her digestive system is maturing. Hugely recommend!

I attended the Group class of Baby Massage at the Godmanchester centre,I found the session really informative and friendly ,Nicola was very welcoming and it was great meeting other mums ,my little girl loved the sessions and with the easy step by step routine we practice everyday at home ,Gracie slept much better and for longer periods at night time ,giving me more rest and more much needed sleep.
I would recommend Nicolas class to anyone it was brilliant was quite sad actually when it came to an end..

I have had 3 xOne to One Home sessions with Nicola from littleolebabystepsmassage ,I was very nervous performing massage as it is something that I never have had myself or thought of giving to my son Jacob, but we both loved the experience ,nicola made me feel very relaxed and in control of the movements,I would say it has definitely increased my bond with my son as having slight post natal depression ,I did find it difficult to interact with him.
I would recommend her highly ,great 5*service.
