About Babyplatz
We offer courses (over 5 weeks) in baby massage, as well as weekend workshops and private sessions for parents and caregivers in Salzburg. Classes are completely baby-led, your baby can laugh, cry, sleep or feed during the session and we make time for refreshments and discussion with parents at the end of each class.
Benefits of baby massage
Baby massage is a longstanding parenting tradition in many cultures which offers numerous (proven) benefits for both baby and parent. Baby massage helps us to understand our babies, learn about their cues and to teach them the skills of trust, respect, empathy and love.
Promotes longer and deeper sleep
Enhances communication between parent and baby
Stimulates growth and development
​Promotes attachment and bonding
Relaxation for both baby and parent
Infant massage is not a fad, it is an ancient art that connects you deeply with the person who is your baby and it helps you to understand your baby’s particular nonverbal language and respond with love and respectful listening. It empowers you as a parent, for it gives you the means by which you become an expert on your own child and therefore can respond according to your baby’s unique needs." - Vimala McClure
