Nuture: A Modern Guide to Pregnancy…
A book that takes you from the beginning of your pregnancy and prepared you to give birth and for your postpartum months. First step to a child that is emotionally balanced is the parent feeling emotionally balanced. This is not easy and can impact both parties from before birth and into the postpartum months. So that’s why I recommend this book to help moms prepare to feel the best. I Created a GUIDE for Expecting Mothers that summarizes the most helpful information I obtained from this book.

Hunt, Gather, Parent: What Ancient Cultures Can Teach Us About the Lost Art of Raising Happy, Helpful Little Humans
I love the concept of fitting your child into you world and incorporating them into the natural flow of living, (instead of, for example, buying them so many toys to distract them.) I think this sets them up in the future to be more capable adults.

Good profile to get ideas from on how to respond to a child when they might be having big emotions. Most of what she’s shared, I have done or tried and every kid is different but you’ll find what works best for your family.

Good Profile to help me make healthier/non-toxic choices for my child and family.
SuperNanny on Youtube
These episodes helped me to get ideas for dealing with some tougher behavior. Supernanny is compassionate but no-nonsense, she reminds the parents that THEY are in charge. I needed that reminder.
