Free Infant Massage Course
I have just completed an intensive four day infant massage instructors course. In order to become an IAIM (International Association of Infant Massage) certified instructor, I now need to complete some assignment work and teach a five week course. I am inviting parents with babies from 1 - 12 months old to register for this FREE five week course in Westshore, starting on Tuesday
10th April, 9.30 am. Each class lasts 60 - 90 min including morning tea and a discussion topic. For further information phone Irene on 0273464857.
This is a research based programme. The benefits of nurturing touch are extensive for both baby and parent, including promoting bonding and attachment, stimulation of the immune system, relief of gas and colic, and relaxation leading to improved sleep patterns.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
