“The first 1001 days are critical in giving parents and babies the best start in life. During this period we can help to support parents and babies with education on infant and maternal mental health, the importance of relaxation and forming close connected relationships. The courses in this diploma are designed to help you provide continuity of nurturing care throughout the first 1001 days.”
-Gayle Berry, Founder of Blossom & Berry
This diploma is a first of its kind in the UK and unique to Blossom & Berry.
It is designed to enable you to learn the complete range of skills to establish a full practice offering massage, yoga and holistic services from pregnancy and throughout the early years of parenting and childhood particularly in the first 1001 days. The courses all link together to give you a holistic approach to care and to offer a full integrated practice of classes and services.
There is much research to show that the first 1001 days are critical and Blossom & Berry supports the cross party campaign to invest into early childhood development. To find out more about the importance of the first 1001 days, you can visit the website here.
Blossom & Berry are very excited to be able to offer this qualification as we feel it offers students the opportunity to develop an in-depth and deep understanding of issues around the emotional/physical development of infants, responsive baby care, parenting skills, attachment theory and the science of relaxation. Each area of the course builds knowledge in all these areas and helps to create a greater and comprehensive understanding of the long term significance of positive touch and responsive parenting for individuals.

“I loved studying the course with Blossom & Berry. It has enabled me to add new services to my practice and expand my knowledge of the benefits of touch and movements for infants. The teaching materials helped me feel confident in holding my own classes and the detailed lesson plans helped me to establish a fun and simple structure for the classes. Thank you so much for your support and professional approach”
