Synopsis

Seeing a child go through the early development stages is one of the most gratifying and enlightening experiences anyone could hope for. It is filled with surprises, a whole lot of love, and undoubtedly a number of concerns. Being that children do not come with an instructional manual, these concerns are very common, and a visit to the health care provider usually puts them at ease. But often some details go unanswered partly because you may not be aware of what to expect of your child, and this holds true especially in the area of development. As health care workers and parents themselves, the authors of “Your Child's Early Development Made Simple: An Essential Guide and Keepsake Book,” find a simple and instrumental way to fill in the blanks to those questions you may have as a parent, daycare provider, pediatrician or family practitioner. This book, designed as an easy-to-follow manual, is filled with valuable knowledge, tips, and facts about child development at all its stages up to three years of age. It should be in the home of every new parent and highly recommended by all health care professionals to anyone caring for a child. It simplifies things and keeps you focused on the fun part of parenting.
