Testimonials
Examples of workshops tailored to customers specific needs
1 hr workshop tailored for 2 yr old child with Global Development Delay:
May 2009: From A.M and son "R"; she had been taking her son to a physiotherapist who recommend learning some massage.
"R" had low muscle tone, referred to as 'hypotonic' so I modified the workshop to show R's mum massage strokes that would specifically help with her son's low muscle tone.
What did you like best about the workshop? The one on one instruction was informative and easy to understand. I was happy with the service Idibidi Kids provided; it exceeded my expectations. Learning to massage my son will help improve his wellbeing and help him and I to bond.
The 'COLIC RELIEF' MASSAGE workshop:
September 2009: From the Powell family; son Ryder @ 8 weeks old, specifically wanted to learn about the colic massage routine to help with colic and wind:
 Baby Ryder
The Powell's were given an Idibidi Kids GIFT CERTIFICATE for a 1hr workshop by a good friend at work.
What did you like best about the 'Colic Relief' Massage workshop? We loved the convenience of Natalie coming to our home at a pre-arranged time that suited both parties. We had plenty of time to get through everything and we felt relaxed and able to enjoy the session. Our baby was also quite settled being in his own environment. We followed the colic massage routine for the 2 weeks recommended and found it did ease colic symptoms. Our baby also enjoyed the massage; now that his colic seems to have subsided, we still massage him as part of play (we do it every night before bed which he loves and calms him down beautifully!). We feel it has helped with bonding as our baby enjoys it and smiles/laughs while being massaged. It is incredibly rewarding to be able to touch and play with our baby and know that he loves it! The service that Idibidi Kids provided was outstanding and we would thoroughly recommend I.K. to others who have had a baby.
Thank you Natalie for teaching us an invaluable skill that brings so much love to our little family! We appreciate all your help and contact.
