Baby Massage & Yoga - Pre-Mobile Babies
If you've completed baby massage or you think your baby is too active/inquisitive for it then this is the class for you. Working as a rolling weekly class, each session is different and you are welcome to attend until your baby starts crawling/actively moving.
This class includes dry massage (over clothes) and builds upon the basic head to toe massage routine by adding new strokes and techniques through song, story massage and body awareness. We then explore a range of sensory moment introducing elements of baby yoga, movement, and sensory stimulation through swings, dips, rotation and inverts; all of which support your baby's physical, social and psychological development.
Each term will include a story massage week where we learn to massage along to a popular children's book, and a themed week which will include themed massage and movement as well as a craft/decorative activity for you to take home.
The parents are just as important as the babies in this class, starting each week with a check-in and stretch, some very gentle core strengthening and a focus on relaxation techniques to complete the class.
You will also have the opportunity to discuss topics around parenting in our
judgement free environment, while enjoying a warm cuppa and treat.
The classes are a perfect way to share a special time with your baby, meet
other new parents, and relax whilst developing your baby massage and yoga
skills and it's many benefits.
Suitable from 12 weeks to pre-mobile.
Baby Yoga & Parent Wellbeing - Mobile Babies
Created for our babies that started crawling but wanted to keep coming to class, Move & Stretch has more focus on letting the babies explore through movement.
With more songs, social interaction and bigger swings, inversions and dips this class really works on babies physical and emotional development. And if your baby wanders off, then its actively encouraged! The
smaller space and intimate group environment nurtures their confidence around
others, in a safe an supportive way.
With babies spending a bit more time doing their own thing, it means that the
parents/carers can do too. Every week will include gentle stretching to help
realign posture, a wellness activity and some relaxation time to close, as well
as the usual warm cuppa and time to connect with other parents.
Suitable for mobile babies.
Bath Babies Spa - Pre-Mobile Babies
Bath Babies Spa is a beautiful concept, which combines baby swimming and nurturing touch and we are excited to be bringing this class to Little Diamonds. This unique class provides parents/caregivers more support and less rush to the big pool for your baby. The focus of the class is on wellbeing, nurture and connection.
Julie is not only a baby massage and yoga instructor, but a baby swimming teacher too, so this class will provide you access to her expertise of both areas.
During the class your baby has their own little warm bath, for sensory discoveries and for you to connect together and feel the calm. After the bath you will have an opportunity for loving touch, including guidance through some baby massage and tips to make the transition out of the bath a calm one.
Babies love Bath Babies; it is so much better to bring your baby to an early water class where they have their own individual water time. Each week carries a theme, so you build on your knowledge from the previous week, tuning in and learning all about what your baby enjoys in the water.
The course will contain elements such as:
💧 Warm welcome mindful routine
💧 Beautiful bath time session
💧 How to handle your baby in the water
💧 Sensory development
💧 Communication and cues
💧 Calming relaxation with nurturing touch
💧 Routines and rituals
💧 Early water holds and moves for you baby
💧 Time to chat to other parents to feel supportive and not rushed
💧 A wellbeing group, with water
