Dr. Harvey Karp is famous for his brilliant insights into centuries-old parenting problems and for discovering breakthrough solutions that are simple ...practical ...and fast working. In "The Happiest Baby Guide to Great Sleep", he works his magic once again on the numbered 1 complaint of new parents. The bone-deep fatigue that parents experience when their children sleep poorly is not just a nuisance-it is very serious. Sleep deprivation can provoke depression, illness, marital conflict, and even obesity. A flood of sleep misinformation and contradictory messages have left parents more confused than ever: Hold your baby-but don't spoil her! Swaddle your baby-but don't let him get dependent on it! Based on Dr. Karp's thirty years as a pediatrician and child developmentalist, "The Happiest Baby Guide to Great Sleep" reveals groundbreaking new ideas to prevent or cure most sleep problems in children under five years old, including: how to adjust a baby's schedule to reduce day sleep and boost night sleep within the very first weeks of life; how to use sleep cues like swaddling and a special type of womb sound to help any infant sleep an extra one to two hours at night within just days; and how to defuse bedtime struggles and help your toddler fall asleep faster using a novel sleep training approach called twinkle interruptus. Plus, "The Happiest Baby Guide to Great Sleep" reveals many more foolproof tips used by Dr. Karp with thousands of families to quickly turn nighttime shrieks into nightlong slumber.

R324 Discovery Miles 3 240 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

What do we, as parents, need to give our children to ensure they grow up to be happy, well-balanced and resilient people? Parenting tutor and mother of two Christiane Kutik tells us that, above all, children need their parents to give them strong values to help them find their way in life. Many of us consider values to be an old-fashioned concept but Kutik suggests that by fostering twelve vital values, parents can provide their children with all the tools they need to flourish, to discover the worth of non-material rewards and to have an emotionally enriching life. Parenting with Values encourages parents to reflect on which values they want to pass on to their children. In twelve short, easy-to-digest chapters, Kutik discusses the essential qualities that children need, and explains how each one is learned and passed on from parent to child. The twelve essential values Kutik identifies are: -- Self-esteem -- Compassion -- Honesty -- Respect -- Sensibility -- Humour -- Security -- Capacity to manage conflict -- Independence -- Interest in e world -- Soulfulness -- Connection the natural world This engaging and readable book is filled with practical everyday examples of values in action. It will provide inspiration for parents who wish to proactively encourage positive development in their children.

The touching, honest and laugh-out-loud account of what it's like to become a first-time mum after 40 Whatever your age, becoming a mum for the first time brings excitement, anxiety and numerous challenges. But how do you cope when, to top it all off, you discover you are almost old enough to be the mother of everyone else in your birth prep group? As one in five babies is born to a mum over 35, and the number of women over 40 giving birth has doubled, The Secret Diary of a New Mum (Aged 43 1/4) is Cari Rosen's timely and hilarious account of becoming a first-time mother in her 40s. Whether it's deftly side-stepping questions about your age and baby number two, weeping as younger counterparts ping back into their size ten jeans within thirty seconds of giving birth, or your doctor suddenly referring to you as geriatric, Cari approaches the shared experiences of an ever-increasing number of mothers with insight, humour and honesty. ***Praise for The Secret Diary of a New Mum*** 'Hilariously candid.' Daily Mail 'Brilliantly observed... funny, embarrassing and yet cruelly honest. It feels good to laugh about it, now the stitches are out.' Fay Ripley 'Warm, witty and very, very wise the perfect antidote to all those po-faced pregnancy books. As a fellow ''Geriatric Mother'' I found myself constantly laughing and nodding along in agreement.' Imogen Edwards-Jones

Can your child run rings around you, and always have the last word? Is your child strong-willed and very independent for his or her age? Do they refuse to take 'no' for an answer? If the answer to these questions is 'yes', then it is likely that you have a bright and challenging child. Whilst there are many positives to parenting such children, it can also be very demanding. IT'S NOT FAIR! is designed specifically for the parents of young children who are independent, risk-taking and hard to rein in. It will help you to: * Set and reinforce boundaries - and explain why you should * Identify the issues and risks that your child may face - and help them to prepare for them * Discuss sensitive issues together - such as sex and drugs * Help your child to be more aware of the needs of others

Heidi Murkoff's What to Expect has delivered again. Announcing the arrival of a brand-new member of the What to Expect family: "What to Expect the Second Year." The essential sequel to "What to Expect the First Year, " with 9.7 million copies in print, "What to Expect the Second Year" picks up the action at baby's first birthday, and takes parents through what can only be called "the wonder year"--12 jam-packed (and jam-smeared) months of memorable milestones (from first steps to first words, first scribbles to first friends), lightning-speed learning, endless explorations driven by insatiable curiosity. Not to mention a year of challenges, both for toddlers and the parents who love them, but don't always love their behaviors (picky eating, negativity, separation anxiety, bedtime battles, biting, and tantrums).Comprehensive, reassuring, empathetic, realistic, and practical, "What to Expect the Second Year" is filled with solutions, strategies, and plenty of parental pep talks. It helps parents decode the fascinating, complicated, sometimes maddening, always adorable little person last year's baby has become. From the first birthday to the second, this must-have book covers everything parents need to know in an easy-to-access, topic-by-topic format, with chapters on growth, feeding, sleeping, behaviors of every conceivable kind, discipline (including teaching right from wrong), and keeping a toddler healthy and safe as he or she takes on the world. There's a developmental time line of the second year plus special "milestone" boxes throughout that help parents keep track of their toddler's development. Thinking of traveling with tot in tow? There's a chapter for that, too.

When Children Don't Sleep Well: Therapist Guide - Interventions for pediatric sleep disorders (Paperback): V.Mark Durand When Children Don't Sleep Well: Therapist Guide - Interventions for pediatric sleep disorders (Paperback)
V.Mark Durand
R1,637 Discovery Miles 16 370 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Many children experience sleep problems and their parents often seek help for what can be a nightly disruption to the entire family. Difficulty getting a good night's sleep can also impact a child's functioning during the day. In addition, sleep problems often accompany and can contribute to other disorders. Despite common belief, children do not simply 'grow out of' most sleep problems. While medications are often prescribed, they may have serious side-effects and have not been proven effective in children. However, there is more than twenty years of psychological research supporting non-pharmacological interventions for children's sleep problems.
This comprehensive guide provides intervention options for a wide variety of sleep problems, including bedtime disturbances, night waking, sleep terrors, and nightmares. It also addresses sleep hygiene, bedwetting, and other sleep-related issues. It uses a modular format, starting with a thorough assessment of the child's sleep problems and the family's ability to intervene. Each intervention module outlines how to instruct families in selecting an intervention and carrying it out successfully. A companion workbook for parents includes detailed steps for intervention, as well as recording forms for sleep and behavior.
Used as a stand-alone management program for pediatric sleep problems or as part of treatment for other childhood disorders, this guide is an essential resource for clinicians.
