This book is a much-needed resource for all parents! As a neuroscientist, I LOVE that they started off by explaining the brain. If parents can understand the link between their child’s emotions and behaviors and how our own emotions impact our child, then we can learn how to respond to our children rather than react. Tammy and Tania have covered it ALL in this book in such a digestible way. Well done!

From the very first page of 'The Parenting Handbook', I was utterly captivated. Tammy and Tania don't just talk about parenting; they take you on a transformative journey that illuminates the profound connections between our roles as caregivers and our own inner children. Reading this book, I found myself reflecting, understanding, and healing parts of my own past, all while gaining invaluable insights into raising the next generation.

The Parenting Handbook is an excellent resource. Sprinkled with personal and professional anecdotes and based on the latest research on attachment theory, neurobiology, the power of play, and so much more, the authors explore all the biggest parenting challenges and provide practical, actionable tools for raising well-balanced kids with a strong parent-child connection at its core. Parenting is one of the hardest jobs in the world and there is no “right way” but The Parenting Playbook lays out a road map for all parents from all different backgrounds to explore themselves first, and then set the relationship quality with their child as the most important compass heading for life-changing results. This book is a must-have for parents, educators, psychologists and anyone working with children. Highly recommended.

As a professional who has been working with children for over a decade and as a mom myself, I was so impressed with The Parenting Handbook. There is no doubt in my mind that this is an essential item for every caregiver's bookshelf. It was the perfect amalgamation of decades of research but all of the science and academic material was packaged in an approachable and understandable manner. I loved the actionable takeaways at the end of every chapter and the personal examples from the authors. It creates a beautiful resource for us caregivers to come back to when we feel overwhelmed or stuck. I will now consider this book my go to baby shower gift for new parents!
