Every Baby Knows

This book is my heartfelt contribution to the next generation of families. After 25 years observing parenting through three-day live in visits, the path to lasting change became clear. Every baby knows how to teach their parents. Family happiness begins in the nursery with the simplest transition: putting your baby to bed. This gentle experience teaches the parent how to create space for self-regulation-a baby's first life lesson. An essential building block for emotional intelligence and general wellbeing. When families miss this foundation, they struggle with cycles of correction and intervention. But when mum, dad, and baby all get on board in the nursery-everyone learns how change truly works. It's all about relationships. This is the time to learn how humans work. Then something special happens. Dads support their wives in these early moments, the whole family transforms and stays connected for all of life's struggles. Learn the mechanics of change at the beginning of your parenting journey. Learn once, use forever. Perhaps the gift of less could be your answer to loving your child every day of their lives. Remember your baby is your best teacher.
