Reading Material
If you are new to parenting, or even not so new to parenting, a prospective parent, a wannabe parent, we found and continue to find that continual education is fundamental. There is a lot that common sense and nature will tell you to do, but there are a lot of things which on the surface may seem innocent, or small, but which may be dangerous, alas even fatal.
For example, how to hold a newborn baby- the importance of supporting the head, and back, how to bath a baby, what to use and not use on a baby's skin. These may all seem so simple, but there is so much one needs to know. So we've put together a recommended reading list.
