The Motherhood Connection

Rachel did 1:1 antenatal sessions with me for a complex delivery. She was kind, patient and gave me some amazing techniques to keep calm during my section.I've also been to Nature Babies with my little boy and we had a great time. The session was relaxed and the cup of tea and cake was very much needed!

I attended the baby massage course with my 5 week old baby girl! The venue was in an old converted barn in the hills and was stunning, peaceful and a great place to relax. The course consisted of different topics each week including digestion, colic/wind, colds and play! I’ve learnt so much from Rachel and used many of the massages learnt at home. We also always ended the session with Rachel’s delicious homemade cakes! I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to book and baby massage course!

Attended a walk and talk which we thoroughly enjoyed and a great way to meet like minded parents and babies. Really relaxed and lovely vibe which Rachel facilitated and allowed this lovely interaction to happen. Highly recommend.

We have just completed a 5 week course of baby massage with Rachel and loved it! The venue is in a cute calm renovated old barn in Birtle, all equipment (mats etc) are provided. Each session had a different theme so each week there was something new to learn. Rachel is lovely, super welcoming and always happy to answer any questions you might have throughout the session. Thanks Rachel xx

Rachel is absolutely fabulous! I have just completed the 5 week baby massage course with my 15 week old son, and we have loved every minute! We want to thank Rachel for welcoming us with open arms and making each week lots of fun as well as being super informative and giving us lots to take away and try at home too! She really is an expert in her field, and such brilliant baker bringing delicious homemade treats along each week for us to enjoy along with a chat afterwards! We also loved meeting other mums and sharing the experience with them.

Rachel has been a fantastic leader of both the baby massage course and NCT group which we have recently attended. She’s very knowledgeable about all things birth, baby and beyond! Most importantly we found she was super supportive in the non judgmental way inwhich she shares information. We also really loved the warm and welcoming atmosphere which she creates in group sessions which supports new parents in meeting eachother. We’ve loved every moment spent with Rachel and would encourage others to book onto a course with her!

Rachel is an amazing instructor and I absolutely loved the baby massage course. Having just had a baby four weeks prior to starting the course, I was a bit nervous about taking a newborn out of the house and being around other mums but Rachel created the most calm, safe and welcoming environment and I felt so comfortable to learn and enjoy the baby massage.Prior to this, I had attended NCT classes with Rachel and she was so helpful in informing us and answering any questions we might have.I will definitely be booking onto future courses and would highly recommend Rachel to any other person interested in her services.

The baby massage course was informative and full of useful tips. It consisted of both massage and reflexology which i found helpful with issues such as tummy ache and blocked nose. The end of each session we were provided with a sheet of what we had done that week so we could continue at home. The classes take place in a beautiful setting and I would recommend this course for both mums and babies.

I attended the baby massage course with my daughter when she was around 4 weeks old. The venue is absolutely lovely at a farm up on the hills in bury in a lovely converted barn which is kept nice and warm for the babies with calming soft music. Rachel is full of knowledge on massage and babies in general and is always happy to give advice where she can. It's a great place to learn techniques on relaxation, digestion and even just ideas for play. My daughter definitely enjoyed it more as the weeks went on and we have used many of the tips Rachel gave us, especially around the digestion part of the course. Really enjoyed it and great way to meet new mums too.
