2 day Loving Touch® Certified Infant Massage Instructor Training CIMI®
Join Lynn Barts, who is the Midwest Licensed CIMI® Trainer for the International Loving Touch Foundation for this 2 day hands on, inspiring & intensive certification training.
Babies and parents alike benefit from this ancient tradition that has been practiced around the world for centuries and is now being rediscovered here in the United States. Research shows that infants who are massaged daily sleep better, have less colic and gain weight faster. Their parents have decreased stress and anxiety and develop more confidence in their parenting skills. Benefits for mothers & non- carrying partners learning infant massage while they are pregnant include decreased stress & anxiety, increased bonding with their fetus, enhanced birth plans, & partner bonding. For babies with developmental delays and disabilities the research demonstrated multiple benefits which will be discussed in the certification training. An adaptation framework will be provided & multiple opportunities for observation & reflection of parents with their babies in massage.
Each instructor training includes LIVE DEMONSTRATION CLASSES WITH LOCAL FAMILIES!

Join me virtually! The Ages and Stages Questionnaire Social Emotional- Second Edition (ASQ:SE-2) is a validated, standardized developmental screening tool that can provide rich information about a child’s social and emotional development including self regulation, adapting to situations, and interaction with people. The ASQ:SE-2 can be used in a variety of settings to support a family’s understanding of their child’s development and provide evidence for further assessment and developmental support.
In this session, participants will become familiar with the social- emotional developmental continuum and the 7 behavioral areas as defined in the ASQ:SE-2. Participants will consider next steps , including referrals & identifying additional resources within the community for children and families based on the ASQ:SE-2 results. This workshop is appropriate for I/ECMHC who plans on supporting the ASQ:SE-2, including early intervention, early childhood, and other healthcare providers. Understanding Social Emotional Development can assist in preventing expulsion/suspension by providing appropriate support for both child & caregiver.
Join me online!
Screening in early childhood developmental settings can enhance partnerships with families and provide information about each child’s development and their approaches to learning. Our time will include opportunities for discussing the questions & ways to incorporate family completion of an ASQ-3 Questionnaire to enhance your screening results. Objectives also include opportunities to weave in continued learning opportunities within daily routines & schedules. We will create an action plan & consider next steps for continued practice. Appropriate for EVERYONE who is on the journey of providing developmental screenings.
