NEW CLASSES are available for Parents with Babies from 2 weeks to 12 months old. Infant Massage and Bonding sessions help even the most nervous first-time parents feel confident about caring for a newborn in no time. Also, they meet other local parents and caregivers, get social support and exchange children's related information.

Massaging a newborn might help mom to improve lactation, overcome postpartum depression, and set up a sleep and feeding schedule. Infant massage helps babies with mental development, growth, and weight gain; also it reduces colic and constipation and normalizes muscle tone. Special massage time promotes early involvement for the father and other family members.

Please visit www.FirstBonding.com for more details, or email Kate@FirstBonding.com to Kate Grasell, Certified Infant Massage Educator.
