Dear Parent: Caring for Infants with Respect
Second edition
-
Infant specialist Magda Gerber shares the wisdom of her life's work.
Magda's many years of thoughtful observation and experience help you to see a baby's capabilities and needs and to develop a way of relating sensitively to the infant you are caring for. Short chapters make it easy to find helpful and reassuring information about life with newborns and in later developmental stages of infancy. In this second edition, two new chapters show how RIE's respectful method of "Educaring" within a one-on-one authentic trusting relationship can be applied not only at home but also in a center-based care and in a family child care setting.
