I had the loveliest two days of Baby Yoga Training with Susan @ Settled Petals. Susan provided a lot of insight into the research behind how baby yoga helps coordination and the parent/baby bond which I found so useful. I feel that I have the confidence and tools now to move forward and get started with offering these classes right away. Thank you :)
Highly recommend Settled Petals! I really enjoyed the in person training for baby massage, and can't wait to go back for my next course in baby yoga! Susan is so lovely and her knowledge and passion for supporting babies and families is amazing. Thanks to Susan I am now a certified baby massage instructor and I am over the moon!
I completed the baby massage course with Susan from settled Petals and it was fantastic. The course was perfectly balanced with practical and theoretical learning and I came away ready to start taking classes myself. I felt confident and competent. I couldn’t recommend settled petals enough and hope to complete another course in the future.
Fabulous and well planned baby massage instructor course. Susan was supportive throughout and provided great feedback where necessary. I now have the skills and knowledge to pursue my new found passion. Thank you Settled Petals Academy!
Fantastic baby massage instructor course. Susan is fantastic, a wealth of knowledge. The content is brilliant and I left the course feeling fully informed, engaged and ready to hold my own massage classes. Would highly recommend
An absolutely wonderful course. Thank you, highly recommended.
Have taken part in a few part webinars one night potty training and night waking. Found them so beneficial.
I also completed my baby massage instructor course with Susan it was very informative and easy to complete with plenty of detail and support throughout.
I've just received my certificate in Baby Massage after completing the online course with Settled Petals.
The course was easy to follow and included a great mix of theoretical materials/visuals. Susan is also so helpful and responds to emails with any questions/queries very promptly. The instructional materials in the course were very clear and effective.
Overall, the course is very enjoyable, and has allowed me to achieve the desired learning outcomes!
Really lovely Baby Massage course that explains everything so thoroughly. You'll come out of it with a fantastic new skill and a beautiful way for parents and their babies to connect and spend time together.
Great instruction, very informative and highly interesting. Susan has put a lot of effort into the course and it shows! I enjoyed it very much.
Susan has great knowledge and is enthusiastic about baby massage and baby yoga. She has carried out so much research around the benefits of both for parent and baby. Susan was a great facilitator and I feel I have learned a lot from her baby massage and baby yoga facilitator training. These are both programmes that I will be running within my job role and feel confident to do so after the training Susan gave.
Susan is a brilliant instructor, the the baby massage and yoga trainings were well paced, lots of useful information including session plans and her online resources are great
