Private Baby massage sessions
In your own comfort, at your best time
With baby massage, you can:
Help baby feel calm
Before babies are able to understand language, we often communicate and comfort them through touch. If baby cries, for example, parents will hold, cuddle or stroke them. Baby massage is part of this natural impulse.
Connect with baby
Your baby will feel nurtured and loved, strengthening the bond between the two of you. Massage is a great way for you and your partner to bond with your baby, and you may find it relaxing, too!
Ease baby
Massage can soothe your baby and help her to sleep. Massage has many added benefits for your baby, including improving weight gain, aiding digestion, improving circulation, and easing teething pain.
What People Are Saying:
“I started going to Deepa during prenatal pregnancy where the yoga classes developed such calmness to me and my baby at the time. I decided to try the baby massage classes after my baby was born.
Deepa ensured that my baby was relaxed and thought me and my husband massage techniques which we were able to use as part of our baby's bedtime routine. Not only did we benefit from the class our baby was so chilled out afterwards.
Deepa also showed us techniques which would help with the gassiness and discomfort our baby would get. She is very calm, informative and welcoming and would definitely recommend!”
Dipisha
“I went to Deepa for her pregnancy yoga sessions and they were absolutely lovely. I don’t have any yoga background so I was a little worried but it was very relaxing and I looked forward to it each week.
I found it very useful and my husband and I took a private hypno-birthing session with her. Overall, I highly recommend Deepa as her sessions are always great and she is always very accommodating.
After my baby was born, I also requested for a private baby massage session from Deepa. What’s great was that she did a house call for this so if you are worried about leaving the comfort of your home after just delivering your baby, worry not.
She shows you ways on how to massage your baby so that they are relaxed and it is always nice to have someone show you how it is done especially for a first time mum like me!”

FAQs
When should you start massaging your baby?
“The best time to start infant massage is within the first three months, as babies begin to develop important physical and intellectual abilities, including motor skills,” Bosco says. “The infant massage techniques will be very light and gentle.” The goal is to get baby comfortable and familiar with your touch.
What should I use for baby massage?
Using a natural oil is best, such as coconut or almond oil. Always test a small area of the skin first.
Do you massage baby before or after a bath?
After baby's bath is an ideal time for a massage. They are already naked, and the skin is still moist -- the perfect time to apply oil or lotion. Put oil or lotion in your palm and rub hands together, which warms up the lotion and your hands -- and makes for a more comfy, enjoyable massage. Choose a time when your baby is content and alert, not tired or hungry, and interested in what’s going on around them. This makes it more likely that they’ll be ready to interact with you.
