Infant Massage Classes for You & Your Baby
These classes offer more than just massage techniques - they’re a chance to slow down, connect with your baby, and feel supported in those early months of motherhood. Some of the benefits of infant massage include, relaxation, positive interaction, stimulation and relief from discomfort.
​
Over 5 gentle sessions, you’ll learn a full-body infant massage sequence grounded in nurturing touch. You’ll also gain insights into reading your baby’s cues, easing common discomforts (like gas/colic/growing pains), and building confidence in your parenting journey. We cover massage strokes and various topics such as the benefits of infant massage and the best conditions for massage.
​
Every class is baby-led. Unsettled babies are always welcome, and because the class is baby-led, you'll follow your baby’s cues.
​
For babies from birth-pre-crawling.
Class Options:
-
Group Classes - Held in Hobsonville, Auckland – Connect with other local parents in a warm, welcoming space.
​
-
1:1 Private Sessions - Personalised support and guidance for you and your baby with the option to hold sessions in the comfort of your own home.​
​
-
Private Group Sessions - Already have a lovely mum's group? I’d be happy to organise a private set of classes just for your group — a beautiful way to connect, learn, and bond together.

Coaching for Women & Mum's
Life as a woman can be full of transitions — becoming a mother, balancing work and home, returning to yourself after a major shift, or simply feeling overwhelmed by life’s pace. Coaching offers you a dedicated space to pause, reflect, and move forward with more confidence and calm.
​
Together, we’ll explore where you are now, where you'd like to be, and how to get there — in a way that feels aligned, manageable, and empowering.
Common areas we might explore in coaching sessions:
-
Managing stress, anxiety, or overwhelm
-
Building confidence and self-trust
-
Creating more balance and connection in daily life
-
Thriving through change (not just surviving it)
-
Navigating motherhood and identity shifts
-
Returning to work or adjusting career goals
Availability:
Sessions available online or in-person (Auckland-based). Flexible packages available depending on your needs.
“I found Ruth to be very informative in helping me find balance in my life. I thoroughly enjoyed doing the 3 month programme & learned a lot about myself in that time. I highly recommend Ruth for wellbeing coaching & would have no hesitation in recommending her"

My Role
As an Accredited Wellbeing Life Coach, I bring a compassionate, forward-focused approach that supports all aspects of your wellbeing. Whether you're managing stress, feeling overwhelmed, seeking balance, craving deeper connection, rebuilding confidence, planning a career shift, or learning to set healthy boundaries — I’m here to support your journey.
In our coaching sessions, I’ll ask powerful questions, help clarify your goals, provide motivation and accountability, challenge limiting beliefs, and co-create strategies to help you live with greater intention and joy. Together, we’ll explore how your lifestyle choices impact your overall wellbeing — and how you can create meaningful, lasting change.
​
I also wear another hat — as an Infant Massage Instructor. While the focus shifts to nurturing the bond between you and your baby, I continue to hold the same calm, supportive space. My classes are designed not only to promote your baby’s development but also to give you a moment to slow down, connect, and feel supported in early motherhood.
​
No matter which path brings you here — coaching, infant massage, or both — this is a space where your wellbeing matters.
"Working with Ruth helped me to clarify goals & make steady progress towards them. I can see real results in my life & happiness since being coached by her. Thank you, Ruth"
