Reviews & testimonials

This book is superb for understanding how your baby feels and what she thinks. It also gives invaluable clues to interpreting her signals to you. This incorporates everything from sleep to diet.

Baby Sense™ is a must read for parents of young babies, care-givers and therapists.

At last a book that has moved away from the traditional baby care books (still much needed) to a book that empowers the mother by teaching her to ‘read’ her baby and to respond accordingly.

[The] tips are not only useful and practical, but do not ever apportion guilt - which, from experience, will be liberating for the mothers involved. The step-by-step approach is helpful in compartmentalizing things and will enable the mothers who feel that they are drowning, to feel like they can do things - one step at a time.

At last parents have a resource book to help them understand their infant’s sensory world. This appealing and well-written book helps parents find ways to provide normalizing sensory experiences for their baby through the use of activities, management strategies, and environmental modifications. Baby Sense™ emphasizes reading the baby’s signals so that parents can provide sensitive and responsive caregiving in everyday routines and play.… Baby Sense™ is a must-read for parents of young babies!

This book helps readers tune into their babies and read their babies’ signals in order to provide appropriate stimulation at the right time… [It is] easy to read with short paragraphs and clear headings.

I would encourage all new parents to embrace the principles of this book; it can only enhance both your and your baby’s enjoyment of life and of each other.

An insightful book that will be of invaluable help to new mothers in becoming aware of their baby’s world and understanding how best to engage with it, Baby Sense™ teaches you how to interpret what your baby means by the signals he gives you and how to respond by regulating his sensory environment and stimulation.

At last! An exceptional book on baby development written for South African parents by South African experts

I am loving my Baby sense book I received at my baby shower

I am such a fan! I loved your book it was so helpful with my first baby. But I gave it to a girlfriend and need a new copy - and your wraps are the best baby gifts!

Thank you for the most amazing book.

As a first time mother, the arrival of our identical twin daughters (Brynn & Sydney) in August this year was a shock. Luckily I had bought a copy of your book and have been following it faithfully pre- and post-birth.

From a twin mother’s perspective, your book is fantastic! It offers practical tips that work as we have to stick to a fairly strict routine so as not to end up with two crying or fussing babies! My husband and I have been following your advice from day one and are able to brag that our girls go to bed with precision – which is a shock to some of our friends with just one unmanageable baby!

Since I only have two arms during the day, and two babies, your book has truly been a life saver.

Die vertrekpunt met die boek is babasorg gegrond op dit wat die baba in verskillende stadiums met sy sintuie waarneem. Dis n revolusionêre, dog eenvoudige benadering, en dit werk wonderlik. Glo maar n ma wat spyt is die boek was nie in haar tyd al beskikbaar nie.

As Afrikaans-sprekende persoon is dit n voorreg om n boek van die format te erken as baanbreker in the veld van Sensoriese Integrasie. Dit is werklik n merkwaardige prestasie om in n oorwegende Engelse veld n boek to kry wat uitstekend opweeg. Beide outeurs se jarelange ondervinding kom duidelik na vore in die praktiese manier waarop hulle spesifieke onderwerpe aanpak. Afrikaans-sprekende ouers kan nou in hul moedertong saam met die terapeut werk en sodoende op n meer gemaklike wyse betrokke raak.

Ek bevel beide boeke ten sterkste aan vir enige persoon, hetsy professioneel of nie, wat te doene kry met babas wat moontlik sensoriese modulasie disfunksie het.
