I think your book is extremely appealing and relevant. It has a very intimate feel, and I think that any parents/caregivers will find lots of gems to help them in being more understanding and thoughtful in their relationship with their child. Plus, I think that the everyday examples you give will really stick in the minds of the parents/caregivers who read the book, and the memory of those examples will be jogged when they find themselves in a similar situation – like the child running away from the parent in a grocery store parking lot, or the child who breaks a treasured object, both of which happen to everyone! Your examples also contain much practical guidance. Giving the child’s perspective is so refreshing and is something that I think will also stick with readers and come to mind when they are presented with difficult situations with their children.
I could go on gushing, but I think your book is very moving and is pure gold!
xo,
Rosemary

“I love it! This book on brain development is a great parenting guide!
We are working with pregnant and postpartum mothers on brain development, attachment, serve and return, reading baby cues, etc. I love that you provide the cutting edge information/education to the mothers out there including our participants at Santa Maria Hostel.
For that I am so grateful.”

Unlike the typical guide for parents, this research based book gives valuable information from the perspective of the child as well as from the parent/caregiver. Through an easy to understand and attractive format, the parent/caregiver is shown how to be a coach, nurturer, model, and teacher for their young child (birth to 3 years). Parents/Caregivers receive tools to build their child’s brain, body, and behavior.”
“A must read for anyone who interacts with young children” Della Redfearn M.Ed. in Counseling

The information was simply superb. It would be very helpful to any mom with a young child.
I loved the research based tips that would help develop a great bond between the parent and the child and aid in healthy development of the child.

Thank you Mrs. Sarathy for this wonderful guide! The book not only provides researched information and tips for nurturing the developing brain, but also the relationship between child and parent as they progress through the child’s development. It is written for all and provides a unique insight into the child’s needs, wants, and cues.

Unlike most books, which tell parents about a child’s developmental stages, this book coaches parents how to meet their children where they are and engage them at each developmental stage. It is written innovatively, framed as a conversation between the parent and the child as they grow. While it is clearly informed by the science of brain development, this book is very accessible and provides tools for mindfulness and communication guided by love and curiosity for your child. It should be in every pediatrician’s office!
