Description
The new baby & child care handbook has been extensively updated and greatly expanded providing clear and medically sound explanations and answers. Besides the basic child care needs of feeding, sleeping, toilet training, stimulating intellectual development and discipline; many new behavioural, emotional, social and psychiatric issues including anxiety, autism, ADHD and AIDS are also covered. The comprehensive index of childhood illnesses, infections and conditions is complete with treatment options; while case histories provide real life parenting lessons and insights. This is a guide for both parents and professionals. The new baby & child care handbook (2011) is a prescribed text in the Early Childhood Faculty of Education at the University of the Free State; and it is manual for nurses in training and in hospitals.
