Sleep Guide
for Babies and Toddlers is an easy-to-read guide which offers parents a practical, no-nonsense approach to establishing good sleep habits and solving their baby’s sleep problems. It discusses various sleep strategies to suit different parenting styles and infant temperaments. The approach is parent- and baby-friendly, and shows parents how to help their baby sleep well without leaving her to “cry it out.” Even a parent whose baby does not have a sleep problem, will find this book informative and helpful in establishing good habits from an early age, and preventing problems later on. The 80-page guide is in an A5-format and has a glossy full colour cover. It is available in English and Afrikaans. Individual consultations are also offered via email. |
