Class Description

Infant Soothing and Nervous System Regulation Class Led by a Craniosacral Therapist and LMFT in San Francisco: Come and learn about how to soothe your baby and yourself from the inside out. This class will help you develop a map of both your baby's and your own nervous system and how the two co-regulate and dance together. Through simple somatic movement, self-inquiry, and observation, we weave information and intuition into a user-friendly map of what works for you and your baby to navigate the ups and downs of baby life.


Who this is for: Mama & Baby **Recommended 0-4 months postpartum


What's Included:

  • Learn about the different ways your baby's and your own nervous system communicate, and how co-regulation and attachment shape that connection.
  • Discover signs of overstimulation in your baby and yourself, and utilize simple ways to calm and down-regulate.
  • Learn to slow down and listen to your baby's communication and tap into your own intuition about what the two of you need. You and your baby have all the answers. The two of you are the manual. We will unlock this innate wisdom and strengthen your confidence for nervous system regulation, for now and many years to come.
  • Explore easy somatic exercises and practices, including rhythmic movements, proprioceptive touch, body mapping, tummy time, and more.
  • Build rituals to enhance your own felt-sense of safety and support, which directly supports your baby's nervous system too.
  • Experience simple ways to enhance heart resonance and secure attachment between you and your baby, strengthening your bond beyond doubt.
