This hugely successful online training program is a worlds first in the way it teaches hands on treatment for babies. It is taught by the renowned osteopath Dr. Jonathan Evans who has created this course using 'live' footage of treatment shot over a 18 month period at his Well Clinic Clinic
Dr. Jonathan Evans has been teaching Osteopathy and CST for the last 15 years and those years of teaching experience and thousands and thousands of treatments on babies has lead to the creation of this comprehensive program.
Dr. Bronwyn McHugh, Osteopath, Cooma, Australia
It focuses on the practical aspects of handling, examining and treating babies, and it uses videos of babies being treated in clinic in order to show you exactly what to do and when.
It's a very comprehensive course that you will come back to time and time again and will form the solid foundational core of your paediatric training.
It is structured so you can easily work through it from start to finish in your own pace as fast as slow as you like in the comfort of your own home or clinic.
It is segmented into many splinter videos so that you easily find and access a topic if you need to quickly review prior to treating.
It's suitable for a wide range of practitioners as it includes a wide range of techniques, and none of these techniques require specific pre course knowledge.If you are used to working 'hands on' with the body then you wll quickly pick up these techniques and examination protocols.
The techniques used are clear and easy to follow but allow for adaptation.
Treating a human being is part art and part science. As a result these technique videos are designed to allow you to follow exactly if you are a beginner practitioner but also designed to allow more experienced practitioners the opportunity to watch, practice, adapt and make these techniques their own.
Prior to being an osteopath Jonathan was one of the first wave of computer geeks in the 1980's. Although intellectually stimulating and financially rewarding it wasn't his "calling" and after a decade working for the big Merchant Banks in London he changed course completely and started his journey into the field of health.
Then after qualifiying as on Osteopath at the British College of Osteopathic Medicine, he moved to new Zealand where he started treating babies and children.
Fast forward many years to an evening whilst chatting with his wife over dinner ...
.... the conversation turned to how to get this work with babies out to many more practitioners.
Jonathan had already being shooting footage of babies in clinic to use as teaching tools just for the osteopaths in his clinic, but this was the light bulb moment.
"I am good with computers, I love teaching, and I certainly not getting any younger, we need to get these skills out and available worldwide and we need to do it now !"
And that's when he formally started filming in clinic with the intention of building this library of footage into a comprehensive paediatric program.
However, the development of this course had not been without it's obstacles as some members of the osteopathic establishment intensely dislike the the 'online' teaching of technique and hands on skills believing this should only be taught in person.
Of course In person one on one mentorship is the gold standard for learning technique. The difficulty of course is that not everybody has the opportunity to learn this way, due to time, financial and geographic constraints.
This is especially so with treating babies babies as the technique practice on in person paediatric courses is shown & practiced on adults or on dolls!
And that's why we developed this course - we must spread this work as there are simply not enough practitioners working in this field. And its not because they don't want to it's because they can't access the training that they need.
We launched this online teaching venture in May 2016 and in the 10 months since then 387 students from 15 different countries have already purchased and completed our on-line programs.
With 216 of these students completing a babies program.
And with their feedback we have refined, polished, added to, and editied this program and it is constantly evolving.
Currently we are developing the Kindred Academy Certification in Pediatric Manual Medicine which this online program will form a part of.
All that you need is internet access and a device of your choosing and you’re all set. The state of the art platform that we use at Kindred Academy works like netflix - it streams in real time so there is no need to download it.
One of the wonderful things about this course is that it is a self-paced home study program. You get to listen to each module at the time that works best for you. Plus you have unlimited, lifetime access to all the content!
We have been asked by lots of our previous students for a certificate of completion and now we will provide you with one at the completion of the program. Because we can track how you're going with the course material we can see when you have completed the program. So your certificate will have actual real value as you won't be able to get a certificate just by purchasing the course you get it by completing the course which is very important as the requirement for reputable quality qualifications grows.
There have been many practitioners from a variety of countries claim this course for CPD. Of course different countries do have differing requirements but so far no practitioner has had a problem with claiming this course for CPD.
"Thanks for the great course you put on and sharing your wisdom. I have to say it really tied a lot of things together for me, and has already made a massive difference on my treatments of babies and children (and adults too). One key way has been in terms of how I interact with the babies/kids, being mindful of their responses, and keeping them settled by picking them up, shifting them around, or giving them a toy and even just talking to them and communicating with them what we are going to do, I really do think they get the intent behind the words and this settles them a bit more."
Even though we have a 30 day money back guarantee it's still important to know whether this course is for you, here's a 10 minute video that will help you decide
We have created this course from our hearts, it draws on years of experience in practice as well as in teaching and mentoring students and that's why we believe you will love it, but if having purchased this course you feel that it wasn't right for you then simply email us at [email protected] within 30 days of purchase and we will simply refund your money.

"''This is an amazing course! It is such a comprehensive approach to pediatric history taking, assessment, treatment and management. I love the mind maps, the real life examples from real patients and the downloadable templates. This course has given me the framework to feel more confident and equipped to treat babies and children. I am very grateful to Jonathan for sharing his wisdom and experience in such clear, organised, easy to understand way.'' "
""I just wanted to say thank you for your work, for this resource that you are creating. I treated an infant today for the first time, and I could not have done it without you and everything you have shared. Thank you for saying that my hands would know and the rest would catch up. It was a beautiful, still moment, and I am very grateful fo"
""The How to treat babies series was fantastic. It was so reassuring to see someone treating in the same style that I've intuitively developed but also to give some great tips and new perspective on things. Your delivery and dialogue are so encouraging and thoughtful.""
""I wanted to say thank you for collaborating such a wonderful course on infants. As a osteopath with a passion for newborns I absolutely loved the course and found it a great tool""
""Just completed your online paeds course which was amazing. Thank-you so much -Can't wait for the next course!""
""I hope you are well. I'm treating as many kids as I can get my hands on at the moment! Thanks again for a wonderful course.""

""I am thoroughly enjoying this course. I have often felt that treating babies would be daunting, but I have been given a new confidence as this course has taught me achievable steps to treat babies in a safe but effective way. The mind maps have been a great tool to refer to when going through the motions. Also being able to learn these skills from home or in clinic has been great, with a young family travelling to courses just isn't an option for me, both time wise but also the cost of travel and being away from clinic""
"Dr Kimberley Coad Osteopath This course is great. It's perfectly done in bite size pieces so you can spend as little or as much time as you want on it. Very relevant and enjoyable. Thanks."
"“I have to thank you so much for developing this course - I was hitting a point of frustration in my practice where things just felt stagnant and same same, this has changed everything. I already treated babies but this just takes it the next level. Its great to watch it, practice it, then watch it again, get the "aha" moment then practice again. Already can feel so much more! Thanks""
""This course is brilliant. It is the most accessible, the most complete and the most usable course that I have ever done. It was incredibly rewarding to undertake because it not only taught me to examine and treat babies successfully but facilitated an entire upgrade in the interaction of my thought processes, my treatment approach, and my delivery for patients of any age. Best of all it improved the experience I have of myself as a practitioner because it enabled me to transform the vast clinical knowledge into actual organic practice. And it did this with ease! In a world where clinical integrity and competence is of utmost importance, so much of our education and its inevitable linear approach strips our patients and ourselves of the ‘holistic’ philosophy and relevant healing experiences that I believe we are all essentially looking for. Jonathan has managed to create a learning tool whereby this gap has been bridged. The course is an incredible gift. There is nothing you could want out of professional development that is not here"."
"thank you so much for the" treating babies" online course (the big one) . its absolutely perfect!!!"
