Complete Baby & Child Care - Tapa dura

This guide to baby and childcare aims to cover the complete experience of parenthood, and to equip parents with the necessary skill, information and confidence to raise healthy and happy children. Divided into five sections - "The Newborn Baby", "Everyday Care", "Play and Development", "Family Life" and "Medicine and Healthcare" - the book offers informative explanations and suggestions. Boy/girl panels highlight aspects of care and development where the sexes benefit from and need a different approach. Dr Stoppard has combined both traditional and up-to-date approaches to create a guide that is easy to use and ideal for quick-reference consultation.
