Full and associate members will receive email

USA® and are encouraged to volunteer their time and
talents to help the organization.
Full membership is available only to Certified Educators
of Infant Massage (CEIMs) who have completed an Infant

membership dues, CEIMs also get:
*Discounted
membership at conferences
*Access to CEIM-only
materials in our warehouse
*A listing in our
CEIM
online directory. This directory helps market your
services and connect you with those in the community
looking for infant massage experts.
Affiliation
With a Professional Network
In addition, membership dues allow Infant Massage USA®
to advertise and promote the organization and CEIMs
through search engines, advertising, and press releases.
These dues allow us to promote the organization in order
to give infant massage, Infant Massage USA and our CEIMs
additional visibility and credibility within the
community. The membership dues also help offset costs
associated with attending national conferences to
promote infant massage, including Whole Child Expo,
Child Life Conference, Prevent Child Abuse, Zero to
Three, Parents as Teachers, and Baby Time Expo (Denver,
May 2008 and Washington, DC, October 2008).
Your support - in dues and volunteering your time - is
very important to the success of this organization.
Together, we can help spread the good news about the
benefits of infant massage and bring more parents to
classes to learn how to practice infant massage with
their children.
