Touch creates bonds, aids stimulation & development, relief & relaxation.
Meet Me
Hi, I’m Jay, the founder and leader of BubbleBaby Massage!
I qualified as a children’s nurse in 2016 from London South Bank University, training at Evelina London. I then gained some experience in general paediatrics and high dependency, before specialising in neonatal intensive care nursing (NICU). It was during this time I learnt about the importance of touch for babies, encouraging bonds to be built and love to grow within the limited hospital environment.
I was lucky enough to experience 2 baby massage courses with my own children, and when my youngest was 8 months old, I qualified with Blossom & Berry as a Baby Massage Practitioner. I am fully DBS checked, First Aid Trained, and insured with Westminster Insurance for baby massage and sensory play.
As of April 2024, I am:
Studying Baby & Toddler Reflexology Instructor Certification with To Baby & Beyond
Completed a Cultural Awareness For Baby Massage Workshop with Urban Birth Plus
Qualified in Adapted Baby Massage and Yoga with Carly Budd Developmental Play Academy
Qualified in ‘Soothe, Settle, Sleep’ A Specialised program for Colic & Unsettled Babies with Blossom & Berry
Studying Developmental Baby Massage & Soft Yoga with teacher and author, Peter Walker, in September 2024.
BubbleBaby has been built with the vision of safe and calm spaces to bond and relax with your baby, surrounded by a soothing sensory experience. The aim is for you to leave feeling relaxed, connected and empowered.
Infant massage is an ancient and traditional art developed by many different cultures world wide. It combines nurturing touch, eye contact, talking to our babies, sounds, smell and most importantly, oxytocin. These all encourage neurodevelopment, relaxation, and tuning into your babies cues, ultimately building your bond together.
Touch is the most developed sense at birth for babies and babies use all of their felt senses to navigate their transition into the world from the ultimate love bubble, the womb, where we experience unconditional love. At BubbleBaby classes, I aim to embrace and welcome equality and diversity, inclusion, and culture. Everyone is welcome, as we create a warm, accepting atmosphere for all.
