Babycare

by Frances Williams

Published 2 May 1996
Once a new baby arrives, parents need all the help they can get. They have to master a whole new set of skills in a very short amount of time, and this can be very daunting, especially for first-time parents. Now, help is at hand for all new mothers, fathers and others familiar with basic babycare. Babycare for Beginners tells you everything you need to know in order to hold, feed, carry, change, dress, bathe, soothe and comfort a newborn baby up to his or her first birthday. In addition, it contains lots of useful information on immunisation and first aid. Large, step-by-step photographs illustrate all the necessary stages of essential care routines, such as changing a nappy, dressing your child, using a baby carrier or preparing a bottle. Short, to-the-point captions make following easy - even when you have your hands full.
