The parenting handbook : your guide to raising resilient children / by Johnson, Tania,author.; Schamuhn, Tammy,author.;
Includes bibliographical references.Being a parent can feel overwhelming and exhausting. So much of the prevailing advice on raising children leaves parents feeling conflicted and confused rather than confident that what they're doing is best for their children. In 'The Parenting Handbook: Your Guide to Raising Resilient Children', Tammy Schamuhn and Tania Johnson-founders of the Institute of Child Psychology, child psychologists, and moms with an immense social media following-give parents the answers they so desperately need. Using the latest research in neuroscience and developmental psychology, and weaving in concrete strategies, Tammy and Tania have created an essential roadmap for parenting that truly works. Here you will find the secrets to raising children who are kind, empathic, self-regulated, emotionally intelligent, and who grow up to become gritty, resourceful, successful critical thinkers who can handle hard things. After reading this handbook, you will be well-equipped to: tackle tough parenting problems such as screen time and bedtime battles, implement effective discipline strategies, manage meltdowns and tantrums, foster optimal brain development in your children, create positive mental health outcomes, lose it less on your child and be the parent you always hoped you'd be.

The no-cry sleep solution : gentle ways to help your baby sleep through the night / by Pantley, Elizabeth,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.The classic, best-selling no-tears guide to making sure your baby--and you--get a full night's sleep has been updated - it is now easier to use and has been expanded to include more solutions plus critical new safety information. Nearly all babies fight sleep. Some people argue that parents should let their baby "cry it out" until the child falls asleep; others say parents should tough it out from dusk until dawn. Neither tactic fosters happiness in the family. The No-Cry Sleep Solution gives parents a third option: a proven method to pin-point the root of sleep problems and solve them in a way that is gentle to babies, effective for parents, and provides peace in the home. One of today's leading experts on children's sleep, Elizabeth Pantley delivers clear, step-by-step ideas for guiding your child to a good night's sleep--without any crying. This parenting classic shows how to decipher--and work with--your baby's biological sleep rhythms, create a customized plan for getting your child to sleep through the night, nap well during the day, and teach your baby to fall asleep peacefully, and stay asleep, without all-night breastfeeding, bottle-feeding, or requiring a parent's care all through the night. And now, this updated edition is even easier to follow. It provides important new guidelines on safety (bedsharing, pacifiers, swings, slings, swaddling and more), and an expanded chapter specifically about newborns. It covers every sleep issue that occurs in the first few years and answers parents' common questions about white noise, back-sleeping, SIDS, day care, naps, nightwaking, bedsharing, dealing with strong-willed babies, working with caregivers, troubleshooting sleep issues, and more!

Love the teen you have : a practical guide to transforming conflict into connection / by Lockhart, Ann-Louiseauthor.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."When it comes to parenting teens, the relationship you share is the foundation for all good things. Do you feel like your teen is pulling away, rolling their eyes at every request, or shutting you out? It's easy to feel like you've lost the child you once knew. Parenting teens can stir up frustration, self-doubt, and even memories of your own teenage struggles. But here's the truth: Raising a teen doesn't have to feel like a daily battle. Teens stumble because they're still developing the skills they need to become healthy, happy adults. Dr. Ann-Louise Lockhart, a pediatric psychologist and parent coach, has spent over twenty years helping families strengthen relationships and guide teens through this transformative stage. She knows it all comes down to relationship and connection-it's never too late to reconnect. Teens need a safe foundation to develop lifelong skills like flexibility, impulse control, and emotional regulation. And you're the best person to help them. In Love the Teen You Have, you'll learn how to discipline with love, build executive functioning skills for adulthood, and tackle challenges like ADHD, anxiety, and depression with clarity. You'll also discover how to reparent yourself, healing wounds you don't want to pass on. Dr. Lockhart combines relatable humor, stories, and actionable strategies to help you spark deeper connections and rewrite your parenting story. It's never too late to love the teen you have and enjoy these years together"-- Provided by publisher.
