Our Vision
Life long benefits of infant massage
Our vision is that one day every child and infant will enjoy the life long benefits that come from having healthy and secure relationships in early life. Helping parents to listen to their baby and respond with love, care and respect, provides tools for creating these kind of relationships.
Helping us achieve the vision
You can help us achieve our vision. If you are a parent or carer start by learning to massage your baby - you will be developing a lifelong skill that helps to enhance your relationship with your child throughout his or her life. For details of IAIM instructors in your area click here.
If you are a health professional, massage therapist or simply full of enthusiasm for the benefits of nurturing touch then why not teach infant massage to others? As an instructor you can help parents use infant massage strokes as a vehicle for reading their baby's cues and responses.
Parents will learn to communicate in the language their baby knows best - touch.
