Every cuddle is building something bigger.
A calm, supportive course designed to soothe your baby and give you space to pause, breathe, and feel connected.
The early months with your baby can feel like a whirlwind of feeds, naps and endless advice. Baby Massage & Relaxation offers you the chance to slow everything down.
We start importantly each week with Relaxation for you. You'll learn gentle massage techniques that can help soothe your baby, encourage better sleep and ease common discomforts, while giving you dedicated time to simply enjoy being together.
It's about creating a morning you will look forward to and special moments that you and your baby will share way beyond the course.

“Both Arlo and I absolutely loved every second of our Tuesday mornings spent in Katherine's blissful studio. I have learnt so much from her baby massage sessions - both practical massage techniques which Arlo loved but also emotional and well-being support for me as a first time mum. ”

Why Baby Massage & Relaxation is different
With over 30 years of NHS experience and 20 years supporting families through Baby Steps, I understand that becoming a parent isn't just about caring for your baby, it's about caring for you, too.
My classes are about helping you feel calmer, more confident and supported as you navigate early parenthood. I love being able to spoil you wellbeing treats an make you a cuppa. Every time I see parents shoulders drop as they arrive at calm of the Studio. and hear from other parents they aren't alone.
If your baby needs feeding, changing or simply a cuddle, that's all part of the experience.
My hope is that every family leaves feeling a little more relaxed, a little more reassured and looking forward to the week ahead.
