Pregnancy and parenthood can often feel like the steepest learning curve of one’s life.  As a psychotherapist who treats new moms and dads, my primary role is to ensure that parents feel emotionally supported, educated around the possible triggers and symptoms of postpartum depression, and empowered to ask for help as needed.  For some people, having a newborn can bring about conflicting feelings of isolation.  Raising Confident Parents is an invaluable resource which breaks down the must-knows of pregnancy and parenthood.  It is an easily digestible book supported by mountains of the latest research, along with humorous tales and advice from other parents who have “been there”.  I have personally worked with Pam Jones (author) and can say that there are few people more educated and genuinely passionate on the subject matter.

The title says it all.  Raising Confident Parents is the answered prayer for those who seek help in caring for their newborn.  It provides no-nonsense tips and strategies to help you get through each parenting step, in short, easy to read/understand information, and in a language that everyone can easily understand.

From pregnancy to staying in the hospital, going home with your baby, to sleep tips, everything you need to be a confident parent to your little one is now made possible with the help of this gem from Pat and Pam.  Raising Confident Parents is proof that there is a workaround for thriving in the earliest stages of parenthood.  It is a reminder that the rewards of being a parent is worth all the challenges.

It is a known fact that having a baby is not an easy-peasy walk in the park with bubbles and balloons all day long.  There are bubbles and balloons, but they’re not the main theme.  I cannot stress enough how much of a God-send this book is for families and caregivers.  The authors, Pat and Pam, have established a way to help manage, if not fully eliminate, the common hurdles of infant care.

There is so much conflicting data available today that only brings about more confusion and anxiety.  This book helps you solve the mysteries of parenthood while also answering the questions you may not even know how to ask.  Thank you for this awesome book, Patricia and Pamela!  Helping your baby to sleep through the night is not rocket science, but there is science behind understanding baby’s sleep cycles, learning you baby’s sleep cues, and teaching your baby healthy sleep habits.  Patricia and Pamela have been rescuing sleep-deprived families since 2009.

The title of this book alone caught my attention.  The secrets and testimonials shared by parents and nurses give the reader insight into what it really takes to get the best care before, during, and after pregnancy.  The authors went above and beyond to educate us on how to grow into caring, confident parents

   Tove Jensen  Speaker and Author of Grandparenting 2.0
When you pick up this book, you might automatically think ‘survival tips for new moms’, and as you flip the pages you realize that more than anything, it’s a complete manual from start to finish.  It is very empowering and liberating to have a guide to prepare us for a journey that we can only truly deduce once we’re there.  Pat and Pam have effective tips and advice even on something seemingly elementary like preparing and storing formula.  I highly recommend this book to all parents and caregivers.

   Meor Amer Reza  Speaker and Author of The Greatest Gift
Sleep is a must!  You wouldn’t think that’s possible once you have a baby, but with Pat and Pam, it is – and it is a must for both mom and baby.  They cover a whole range of topics in their book, but sleep training is something all parents can agree on that is a real head scratcher.  Well, not anymore...if you follow the useful resources in this book.

   Zoe Hoang  Life Strategist, Trainer, Coach, and
     Author of When Good Becomes Great
In raising Confident Parents, Pat and Pam selflessly share what they know about efficient, tried and tested principals, methods, and habits for the expecting mom, the new mom, or the mom who just brought home her third bundle of joy.  As a matter of fact, it’s also a great book for dads.  I especially love the ‘Parent Tips’ from happy parents who rave about the Sweet Dreams Infant Care experience.

As a parent myself, I know firsthand the struggles of pregnancy and surviving a baby’s infant years.  I always wished when I had my kids that I had an instruction book for those sleepless night, feeding dilemmas, constant discomforts, and everything in between.  Thanks to Pat and Pam for their dedication to finding solutions to these challenges.
