Book Description
For the first time, America's favorite nanny brings all her warmth, love, and experience to bear on that most crucial and worrisome time: a baby's first twelve months.

With her unique blend of humor and empathy, Jo Frost gives parents the practical information and emotional support they need to embrace the challenge of their baby's first year. She offers clear guidance to help moms and dads become the joyful, confident parents that make a family--and little ones--truly flourish.

Packed with tips, practical information, and incredibly reassuring advice, this book tells you how to:

  • Sort out the essential equipment you need to buy before the birth
  • Babyproof your home
  • Set up for routines, feeding, sleeping, and development
  • Deal with premature and multiple births, as well as adopted babies
  • Make confident choices about going back to work, day care, and nannies
  • Cope with breastfeeding and weaning

Covering the key issues of the first twelve months, including growth charts, vaccinations, and first aid, Confident Baby Care is the perfect book for any new parent!

4 out of 5 stars Straight to the point. No verbal garbage here.   September 6, 2008
I liked the way this book was organized, and found the illustrations useful. Joe Frost's no-nonsense approach to child care makes her a favorite in this family, and I gave her book to my daughter who is expecting her first child in December.


5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Book & Fast Service!   August 28, 2008
I gifted this book to my sister, Aimee' (first time mom), and not only did it arrive the next day when I only paid for regular shipping, but it made all of baby's sleeping problems go away. Aimee' can now sleep through the night EVERY night. Using techniques in this book is like taking a sleeping pill... definitely a good thing for any mom out there!


2 out of 5 stars Not good enough....   August 24, 2008
I'm having my first baby in two months so I've been reading quite a bit of books. Got this book and read it maybe half way there, nothing was interesting enough to keep reading it. It's not a bad book it's just not good. There are a ton of better books out there, skip this one if you can.


1 out of 5 stars Better books out there   August 6, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I was very disappointed in this book. For one there were several typos. Also her views on breastfeeding aren't very accurate. I think she is a great nanny but she hasn't been a Mom and that is very evident in this book.


2 out of 5 stars Nothing Special   August 4, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I read a lot of baby books. I am a Postpartum Doula and like to keep up on new literature. I really found nothing new or special that would set this book apart from others. There are a lot better written books for the new mom out there.
