Juniper Family Wellbeing Sessions
Baby Massage
We believe that through sharing baby massage skills with families, we can help create a kinder, more compassionate and happier community. Sharing this beautiful and nurturing practice with your baby helps build strong foundations for their mental health, helps them feel safe and secure, and supports the production of oxytocin, the ‘love hormone’ which helps the bonding process.
Research has proven that nurturing touch is crucial to our development, and our sessions offer parents a chance to learn skills that can support their confidence, for example, by learning skills that can help relieve your baby when they are experiencing colic or constipation.
Baby Massage - 5 week course
Juniper Baby Massage courses offer a welcoming, inclusive, and supportive space for families in West Cumbria. We provide a nurturing environment where you can spend time building a beautiful bond with your baby, whilst learning baby massage techniques to help soothe your baby, connect with other families within the group and enjoy a well-deserved hot drink.
During the course you will learn the whole baby massage routine, learn wellbeing practices to promote your own health and wellbeing, and take part in an end of course celebration with certificates and a keepsake craft activity (and cake!)
The sessions are suitable for babies from around 6/8 weeks to active crawling and their parents or primary carers.
Sessions are baby-led, flexible and supportive, and you are free to respond to your babies needs at any time if they need feeding, a nappy change, a cuddle or just a change of scenery.
This course leads on to our Juniper Baby Yoga course
Baby Yoga
Baby Yoga is a wonderful progression from our Baby Massage courses, as we begin to introduce more movement, music and yoga-inspired poses to help your baby’s physical, emotional and sensory development. Both massage and yoga help your babies sensory development, including their sense of proprioception (body awareness) and vestibular system (balance). Baby yoga is great for supporting the development of the vestibular system through fun actions, dance, swings and dips.
Juniper Baby Yoga - 5 week courses
A lovely combination of baby yoga, lots of songs and nursery rhymes and advanced baby massage, with some gentle stretches for parents.
Suitable for babies from around 12 weeks to active crawling.
This course provides a lovely space where you can spend time building a beautiful bond with your baby, whilst learning fun baby yoga techniques to support your babies physical, emotional and sensory development. It also offers a chance to meet other families within the group and enjoy a well-deserved hot drink and snack.
We end the course with a celebration session, with certificates and a keepsake craft activity.
We will also share wellbeing resources and practices over the course.
Sessions are baby-led, flexible and supportive, and you are free to respond to your babies needs at any time if they need feeding, a nappy change, a cuddle or just a change of scenery.
Music & Movement Courses
These sessions will be introduced in spring 2024. Please get in touch for more information and to join the waiting list.
Special Occasion Baby Workshops
We provide beautiful, themed sessions throughout the year, including Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Summer, Halloween and Christmas workshop. We also run Daddy and Me workshops, as we know that Dads often miss out on baby groups or may not feel confident attending mixed baby groups. We have also held pamper and relaxation events, with a baby session followed by a mini treatment for parents.
