Le massage pour bébés

En tant que parent de nouveau né, nous sommes souvent occupés à changer, nourrir, habiller, etc.
Les bébés ont besoin de se nourrir autant de mots et de caresses que de nourriture.

Encore trop petits pour jouer, le massage est une fantastique activité à faire avec les touts petits, ce contact peau à peau, yeux dans les yeux est tout aussi relaxant pour le bébé que pour la maman (ou le papa!) 

Je vous propose de découvrir le massage pour bébés en quelques séances, données à Ixelles dans un cadre chaleureux, huile et dessins détaillés des massages sont fournis, un moment est prévu après la séance autour d'une tisane et de petits gâteaux pour partager vos expériences de jeunes parents et poser des questions.

Testimonial from Irina and Ayité, Abigael's parents

We highly recomend Claire as a doula to accompany you for the birth of your child. We are a young international couple and we recently had our first baby. Claire has accompanied us throughout the pregnancy and was there for the whole labour (over 14 hours). She has come to our place before giving birth and helped us prepare for the big day, gave us numerous advices and supported us in preparying our own birth plan. She was on standby for the delivery and when we called her late one Saturday , she immediately came to the hospital (she was there even before we arrived!!!) She helped me and my husband in numerous ways during the labour, she was present for every detail that I needed - massage, bath, exercices and helped us communicate with the hospital midwives and staff. We are very satified with her services and convinced that we will again request her services for our second child. All in all I highly recomend her for any couple that wishes to have a non-medicalised support throughout this important day, we would not have made it soo well without her!!!

Testimonial from Tamia and Patrick, Lilou's parents

As our Doula, Claire was exceptional at the birth.  She exceeded our expectations in many ways.

She showed great professionalism and poise. Her presence and knowhow were not only comforting and reassuring; it made the whole experience one we will cherish for the rest of our life.  We frankly wonder how we would have made it without her.  She knew the right words to say, her massages were extremely helpful.  She knew when to stand off.  Not to mention the fact that we called her in the early morning hours when the first contractions started, and she was at our home within minutes.  Anyway, we could go on and on.  The bottom line is that she has been outstanding in all the ways we hoped her to be and more. 

After the birth,
she visited us, brought us some (delicious) homemade soup (among many other things) to help with the breastfeeding.  Again, she made her presence and her support be felt without being overwhelming.
