Becky provides such a lovely class! All techniques taught clearly and lots of time for practice, with handy reminders provided. The atmosphere that Becky quickly creates is warm, friendly and comfortable which is a real skill. I have really appreciated the time Becky sets aside for coffee and chatting, and she ensures that everyone feels comfortable no matter how their babies may be that day! We’ve loved incorporating massage into our bedtime routine - thank you. Looking forward to attending Becky’s other classes soon!

Myself and my son loved our baby massage course, we enjoyed the social and enticingly support as well as the physical benefits to. Becky was so relatable and we felt calm and comfortable at all points which really helps with the massage. I would recommend to anybody looking for a course, I use the skills almost daily.

I honestly have nothing but positive things to say about Embrace baby classes with Becky. Feeling nervous as it was my first class that I had attended with my little boy, were feelings that instantly vanished as soon as I entered the room and was greeted by Becky. The 6 week baby massage course was one that myself and my little boy really have taken a lot from - our bond feels closer and also, my confidence as a mum actually has improved too -- you really can do anything that you set your mind to! I definitely will be booking onto another class in the future - thank you so much Becky for a really lovely experience.
P.s. The coffee and teas alongside your gorgeous homemade cakes/biscuits definitely was an added bonus - this just shows what a warm and inviting person you are!

Becky is an excellent teacher and the classes have a really relaxed atmosphere - even with the babies doing what they like and not necessarily being massaged! Even if you need to feed or your baby is sleepy Becky makes sure you can learn the techniques and will always go over anything you might have missed. My little girl particularly likes the leg massages we learnt in class - thanks Becky!

I started this class when my baby was 2 weeks old and it is suitable for this age. Becky is a fantastic class teacher and very patient and informative. The classes enable really lovely bonding time with your baby while learning some fantastic wellbeing massage. After learning the gas and colic routine, my now 8 week old has regular movements and I am sure this massage routine has contributed to this. Becky is kind and engaging. I really enjoyed her class and am sad its over.

My little girl is 3 months old and LOVES her baby beats classes. The massage section at the end is her favourite and I love having a chance to stretch and get stronger whilst keeping her entertained. Its a lovely group of mums too. Highly recommend 🙂

I found Becky online and signed up for her baby massage course because my daughter was quite colicky and I wanted to learn massage so that I could help soothe her discomfort. The course was well planned and thought out. Delivered professionally by Becky who made the environment warm and welcoming. The atmosphere was very relaxed which made me feel comfortable about feeding my baby during the session if needed (I haven’t felt comfortable feeding in front of others before). Saffy and I really enjoyed attending the session and she always came home relaxed and sleepy. I continued the baby massage at home and have found the colic routine to be beneficial. In addition to this I find it’s just a lovely thing to do with my baby. Thank you Becky
