Baby / Infant Massage leaflets

[Jason Bernasconi]

Hi
I am just about to qualify in baby massage as an instructor and just wondered if anyone knew of any good websites to get good quality leaflets with maybe a baby picture on. I am sick of Vistaprint and receiving emails daily from them with their offers and now find them quite expensive. Any suggestions would be very welcome.
Thanks

Hi TJG

I use Print Mania near me in Barnet - I am sure they have a website but not sure if they do delivery but you can ask.

I got 5000 for £200 and they have quoted me similar prices for some different ones this time round as well.

I did the design myself, emailed it to them and they got it printed once they messed around with the layout to make it fit on the leaflet.

My first ones were A5 back to back

this time i have done three fold on word and sent it across to them.

As for baby pictures, why not take your own photos? Thats what i have done on my leaflet - you can ask the baby's mum if they are happy to use the child - of course make sure the private parts are not shown or just use the face (I have not used the face on mine but it shows a baby being massaged).

Hope that helps

TJG, for photo and clip art images try Microsoft Clips Online.

Open Word or PowerPoint and select Insert - Picture - Clip Art and then select Clips Online. This takes you to Microsoft’s online clip art library - which has a huge number of images on a huge range of subjects. Best of all they are free.

From there search for Baby or Massage or whatever. Then you can filter this on clip art, photos etc. Select the images you want and download them to your PC and insert them in the leaflets and away you go.

Take care to read the Terms and Conditions on the Microsoft website - but for leaflets etc you should be fine on copyright etc. Do not be tempted just to download any old picture from the web - these items are copyright unless specified otherwise - though sometimes a mail to the webmaster is enough to secure permission.

Also if you take store and use pictures of children and minors to be very careful about obtaining (and keeping a copy) permission from the parent or guardian as Rakhee suggests. If you think this through I am sure you will see the reason and the sensitivity of the issue! Sadly that is the kind of society we live in and it is just as well to cover yourself even if your motives are entirely honourable.

Hope that helps

Hi
Thanks for replying. I had the assessment today and we all passed. I got an A - so I am a girlie swot!!

I did take photos of the babies but did not show their faces and they also wore nappies and got signatures of parents and got them to sign photos and consent forms but as far as images on a leaflet go I have found some on a royalty free website and no faces are used.

Thanks
