It's International Baby Massage Day so share your photos of connecting with . It can be with your baby, a fur baby or someone special as we all need positive, nurturing touch.

Well said and a huge shout out to all the mums and dads out there who are feeling like they need a break. The days may be long but the years are very short. Take the time to live in the moment and treasure it!

So precious to see the Daddy-daughter bond.

Skin to skin. Our mana.
Blessed and proud to bring another strong girl into this world.
Tiana Gia Johnson came into this world like a force of nature and Mama Lauren Hashian Official labored and delivered like a true rockstar.
I was raised and surrounded by strong, loving women all my life, but after participating in baby Tia’s delivery, it’s hard to express the new level of love, respect and admiration I have for Lauren Hashian Official and all mamas and women out there.
Word to the wise gentlemen, it’s critical to be by your lady’s head when she’s delivering, being as supportive as you can.. holding hands, holding legs, whatever you can do. But, if you really want to understand the single most powerful and primal moment life will ever offer - watch your child being born. Its a life changer and the respect and admiration you have for a woman, will forever be boundless.
And to my third and youngest daughter, Tiana Gia - like I did when your two older sisters Simone Alexandra and Jasmine Lia were born, you have my word, I’ll love, protect, guide and make ya laugh for the rest of my life.
Your crazy dad has many responsibilities and wears many hats in this big ol’ world, but being your dad will always be the one I’m most proud to wear.
Oh and one more thing.. you’re gonna love rollin’ in daddy’s pick up truck.

Why massage your baby?

So you and your baby can fall in love with each other

Such a thought-provoking talk by Meg Faure of Babysense yesterday on the attributes we need to be equipping our children with for the jobs of the future and surprisingly the vast majority are soft skills - just one more reason to massage, massage and massage our children.

Touch is the first sense that your baby develops in utero and it is a wonderful way to start bonding with your baby.

From the moment you can start feeling your baby's movements you can use massage to communicate with each other and start interacting. My tummy flutters just remembering my own time 'touch-talking' to my beautiful babies!

It's official Holistic Baby has relocated to Plumstead Cape Town and will be offering courses in the Southern Suburbs.

First course to begin on Tuesday 13 February at 10am. New venue but the same trusted IAIM baby massage!

A great article encapsulating some of the benefits of baby massage! Worth the read

Nurturing Touch | News from Baby’s and Beyond Magazine Providing regular, nurturing touch to your baby is most certainly one of the biggest gifts you can give to your child. And it doesn’t even cost anything. All you need are your hands and some time. Imagine how different the world...

Couldn't have said it better. World premmie day!

Sometimes hope comes in the tiniest bodies ❤️ Thinking of all our mamas with premmie babies today. Praying you never loose hope and your little warriors go from strength to strength
