Helicopter parenting. The Ferber method. Prenatal hot-housing. All these confusing terms and methods are enough to make you want to hurl all your conflicting parenting advice books away, stat.
Coming to the rescue is this jargon-free, easy-to-understand, emotional-health guide to parenthood – Best Start, by clever clinical psychologist Lynn Jenkins.
This nifty little read looks at how your baby’s early experiences and interactions provide them with the beginnings of their self-beliefs, thoughts and feelings; their self-esteem and self-value; how they operate in relationships; how they behave socially, and their sense of emotional security. Most importantly, it outlines what your baby needs in order to develop a positive idea of themselves, and what you can do to meet those needs.
Chapters include:
1. What do we mean by ‘best start’?
2. How the brain takes shape
3. Say “Yes” to consistency!
4. Developing your child’s sense of self
5. Emotional regulation and the importance of self-awareness
6. Self-awareness and our parenting values.
RRP $19.99, 132 pages, available from exislepublishing.com.au
