— Infant Massage Class for Parents
Wednesdays, 10 – 11 a.m. @ Easter Seals Central Texas

Through this course, you will learn the sequence of strokes that can help your baby sleep better, improve their digestion, and develop a strong bond with you!

This free 5-week class is for parents and children ages birth to 12 months and for children with special needs up to 7 years old. Snacks and childcare for siblings will be provided.
