an essential companion volume for the early years. Just like parents
and families, each baby is unique. Whether you are desperate to
solve your baby's crying puzzle, or whether you just want some
quick tips to soothe the inevitable tears that are an everyday
part of infancy, this book is a one-stop reference.
Its easy-to-use format makes it possible to skim over information,
and choose what is relevant to the immediate situation.
Sections are introduced with facts and the latest research, interspersed
with real stories from parents.
Above all, Pinky McKay inspires parents with confidence - you
can supply the appropriate care and attention your baby needs,
or know when further help may be required.
Pinky McKay, a former nurse, is a Melbourne writer and editor
specialising in health, education and family issues. She is also
the co-parent of four grown children plus a 'bonus baby'. Her
good humour, experience and positive outlook are reflected throughout
this book and in her earlier work Parenting by Heart.
Pinky lives in Wantirna, Victoria.
