Infant Massage Instructor Certification Training is an internationally-recognized course to certify you to teach families to massage their babies. Professionals who work with families find that when a parent massages their baby, they develop a closer bond with their child, learn to read their baby’s complex language of cues and expressions, and provide their baby with nurturing touch that has been recognized in research studies to support better sleep patterns, improve immune function, accelerate maturation, and facilitate communication skills.
We traditionally teach all our trainings in-person in small groups where the participant can have hands-on experience watching and teaching families with their babies, and can personally experience the mentoring of a Certified International Trainer from the International Association of Infant Massage, headquartered in Sweden. During the pandemic we are offering a limited number of trainings online, and small socially-distanced trainings when possible.
Infant Massage USA’s trainings are recognized for CEUs by accrediting organizations for Nurses, OTs, PTs, Lactation Consultants, Social Workers, Massage Therapists, Doulas, Child Life Specialists, and more. Visit Infant Massage USA for the most current information on CEUs.
