Our Mission

Our Impact

Infant Massage USA has reached 23,000+ families since 2005

In order for someone to become a Certified Educator of Infant Massage, they’re required to teach 5 families how to practice nurturing touch.

Based on that metric, we know that Infant Massage USA has reached over 23,000 families since 2005! And we estimate the real number is much higher since our educators continue their work after completing certification requirements.

We have CEIMs across the country!

Testimonials

“Infant massage has shown to be impactful on every area of child development. As a birth mandate state, incorporating infant massage into our early intervention programming allows us to make a greater impact at an earlier age, allowing us to narrow the gap between children with a delay and their typically developing peers.

Infant massage also gives us a new skillset, which allows us to directly intervene on the child/caregiver relationship at an age when bonding is the most critical. We are in the process of training all of our home visitors in the county.”
