Babies in Bloom

"My baby has been inconsistent in his afternoon napping. After enrolling in the class, Rachel has taught me methods of soothing. Thanks to the amazing techniques, we came home from class and he slept almost 2 1/2 hours! I couldn't believe how instant the results were!"

"Last night Tabitha was inconsolable and I was able to calm her through massage techniques that you taught me."

"I don't know who enjoys it more: me or him!"

"I am so happy I got to experience this class.  I have come away with many invaluable techniques for soothing and bonding with my baby! The most precious gift would be having massage become a part of our nightly ritual.  Not only is it soothing before bed, it's so wonderful feeling that bond and connection with my baby each day!"

"Ever since we started, Silas has started to sleep at night in his crib! Thank you Rachel!"
