The Infant Massage Information Service has been offering baby massage training to individuals and organisations worldwide for the past 24 years. The inspiration for developing this course initially came from parents eager to learn how to massage their infants. After witnessing the tangible benefits firsthand, they felt compelled to empower other parents with the knowledge of baby massage.

This comprehensive course was meticulously crafted by one of Australia's most seasoned Infant Massage Instructors. The Information Service has collaborated with a diverse array of highly qualified trainers over the years to continually enhance the course content. These contributors include midwives, paediatric nurses, massage therapists, a Doctor of Adult Education, a business consultant and a leading lecturer in early childhood education.

"This has been one of the most amazing training courses I have ever done. Professional and lovely staff. Thank you for your ongoing support. Highly recommend."

"Trainers were very friendly and approachable. The course was up to date, easy to follow, very concise, accurate and evidence based."

"Our trainer was great. The manual provided is invaluable and when coupled with training, brings everything into perspective. The course is very helpful with lots of hints about business aspects and it was good to hear about different things that have happened during baby massage classes. 

Paula was fabulous; very friendly, fun and relaxed. She explained things in a manner that was easy to understand and made us feel completely at ease and comfortable with each other. No question was silly. 

IMIS has been really helpful right from the first point of contact and the course is great. Everything is made easy for those who don't have any prior formal qualifications."
