Are you interested in joining a baby massage class near you? Here at Club Hub we have hundreds of baby massage classes on our directory for you to find so we thought we would create a blog article of the very best in the UK.
A Basking Babies baby massage class are the perfect first class to enjoy with your baby, suitable from birth until active crawling. Not only do we nurture babies in our classes, but parents are taken care of too with a hot drink, refreshments, and the chance to chat to each other about the highs and lows of those early weeks and months.
Basking Babies is a national franchise business offering sharing and support circles, pregnancy relaxation, baby massage, baby reflexology and baby yoga classes. Our current team of 12 passionate, expert instructors offer in-person and live online award-winning classes to support parents from pregnancy to pre-school.
Before babies can communicate through language, they respond to touch for comfort and to understand the world around them. We naturally cuddle and stroke our babies and Basking Babies baby massage classes build upon this.
Despite only being introduced formally in the US in the 1970s, baby massage has been used for hundreds of years around the world. It involves rhythmic and gentle strokes of your baby’s body as well as gentle manipulation of the joints to support growth, enhance bonds, and relieve stress.

“Before babies are able to speak or even respond to sounds and sights, they communicate with the world around them through touch” Sarah, BellyTots.
Sarah teaches Baby Massage Classes for BellyTots, working closely with Liz (Founder of BellyTots). Sarah is an NCT trained and affiliated Baby Massage Instructor. She has also trained in Developmental Baby Massage with the prestigious Peter Walker.
Sarah supports a Mum or Dad’s connection with their baby while they learn to use the beautiful practice of Baby Massage to soothe and settle, as well as support development. She supports parents to lay the foundations of a strong association between love and positive touch for babies.
Parents are often keen to learn about techniques for helping with wind and reflux and Sarah prioritises these massage strokes. Sarah is a Breastfeeding Counsellor too, so is always more than happy to discuss feeding issues as well.
Classes are gentle, relaxed and full of laughter. We know that babies are not always in the mood to be massaged and encourage parents to respond to their baby’s needs – feed, change, rock – whatever they need. Sarah always repeats previously learned massage strokes in each class before adding new ones, in case you’ve missed something while you were attending to your baby. She also sends out a short reminder video after every class to assist your practice at home. At the end of the course, each person receives a video of the whole Baby Massage routine set to music.
BellyTots loves babies while also caring for Mums & Dads. All BellyTots classes include complimentary drinks, biscuits and time to chat with the facilitator and other parents.
And, of course, we hope you’ll move on from Baby Massage class to enjoy Baby Yoga, Mum & Baby Strengthen & Stretch, Reflexology and more!
My Baby Massage courses will aid relaxation and digestion, help relieve colic and help your baby to sleep. Over a six-week course of classes you will learn to massage your baby from head to toe. The course includes detailed hand-outs to support the massage. I also set aside some special time for ‘MamaChat’ discussions and articles on a variety of parenting topics. My focus is as much on you as your baby.
Baby Yoga
An ideal companion to Baby Massage and great for mums and babies, my Baby Yoga courses will help strengthen your baby’s bones and muscle tone and develop co-ordination and sensory-motor skills. Plus there are gentle stretches to help you get back in shape. Over a six-week course of classes you will learn a series of structured baby yoga moves to help foster your baby’s development. Sessions begin with gentle ‘MamaStretch’ postnatal exercises and end with a beautiful ‘MamaChill’ relaxation and mindfulness session to give you the self-care and nurturing that you deserve.

Our award-winning sessions are magical, engaging and fun, allowing you to learn a new skill and spend quality time with your little one. It has been proven time and time again that physical contact, love and connection are essential aspects of a baby’s development.
I started Rubba–Bubba in 2013, the same year I had my first baby. I am now a mama to two adorable (ish) children and have been a children’s nurse for 12 years. After a long career on the ward, I have now retrained as a Health Visitor and still practise today.

Songs, rhymes, stories and sensory play complement our classes to make the sessions exciting, safe and easy to follow.
Don’t worry if your baby needs changing or feeding, the class is baby-led and your baby’s needs always come first. We massage a different body part each week and recap from the week before in case you can’t make it.
