Infant Massage Classes Offered by Parents as Teachers

Learn techniques for stimulating and bonding with your baby on Tuesday, Feb. 7, 6:30 – 7:30 p.m. at the James J. Eagan Center, Room A, #1 James J. Eagan Drive, Florissant. Bring a blanket for your infant to lie on.  Expectant mothers are welcome (bring a doll).  Susan Rockow, a certified Parent Educator and Infant Massage Expert, will present and answer questions.  The session is sponsored by the Ferguson-Florissant School District’s Parents as Teachers program.

Attachment is the special relationship that develops between a baby and the primary caregivers during the early years of life.  The quality of attachment impacts all areas of development.  Being touched, loved and stimulated is essential to a baby’s healthy brain development and quality of attachment.  The more secure the attachment the better the child does in school.
