Does anyone know of a reputable school to become certified as a prenatal massage therapists? Preferrably in Canada.

Not a particular school, but there is a teacher that I have heard of *i believe* was carol osborne-sheets.
My girlfriend took her course and enjoyed it, I have picked up some of her techniques as well.

ETA: the course my friend took was by Claire Marie Miller called Nurturing the Mother.

Well, next month I'm going to attend a 21-hour course that is supposed to certify me for pregnancy massage. It's offered by a lady, not a "school", and she's in Texas, though. Not sure if she ever travels as far as Canada. Surely there's someone reasonably close to you.

Where do you plan to practice? If in Canada, you first need to meet the licensure standards for RMTs. If you have already done so, you then want to make sure your pregnancy massage training meets Canadian CE requirements.

I had a great experience with Kate Jordan's "Bodywork for the Childbearing Year" course and certification process, and highly recommend it. But since you are asking about Canada, you may want to connect with a Canadian that is already specializing in pregnancy massage. Here's one such provider that may be able to provide you with appropriate guidance:
Healthy Beginnings Massage Therapy (Canada)

Hope that helps!
