Helen Thompson originally from a farming community in Perthshire, Scotland and since 2016 she has lived in North West Tasmania with her partner Jonathan. Most of her 30 plus years working life have been spent working with both babies and children. She started my career as a childcare educator, where she gained her NNEB qualification in child care.

She first discovered baby massage in 2010 when she was looking for new ways to help babies with the usual typical problems such as sleep, colic and constipation. Baby massage, although not well known in Australia, has been practiced in countries such as India for generations and is almost in their DNA!

There is no better start in life for a baby than a daily massage and there are so many ways in which baby massage can help you and your little ones. 

She has always been an advocate of a healthy lifestyle, encouraging good nutrition and habits and over the years have also trained in various complementary therapies including Brain Gym and Kinesiology.

She has incorporated some of these techniques to further enhance her baby massage classes.
