Before babies learn to speak, one of the key ways you can communicate with your child is through touch. Baby massage is one of the earliest, and easiest, things you can do for your baby, and it’s a great way to bond. Positive, loving touch, like that used in baby massage, has been proven to have a substantial physical, emotional, mental and social benefit to babies who are regularly massaged by their parents/caregivers. Bonding with your baby can take time and doesn't always happen easily. The bonding experience can be encouraged through touch, through spending quality time together and through eye-to-eye contact with your baby. Baby massage can play a vital role in this process, particularly if you've struggled due to postnatal depression, an early baby or medical problems. It's a great thing for dads to learn too, especially if mum is breastfeeding and he feels left out.
