Keep Parenting Simple


When Steve was a new Dad, he was like so many other parents where the information that was out there was so dense, overwhelming  and not digestable enough for the modern parent. The Simplest Baby Book was born for quick and easy useful knowledge that not only educates but invites parents to share and support one another.

This book is illustrated with graphs, indexes or charts to help you understand all of these baby terms and situations! We love the chapter on co-sleeping and the section on understanding baby poop! Wow, learn all about cloth diapers and the must haves before you change your baby. There are so many things that you will not need but what are the diaper changing basics? This book has it all.

Simplest Baby is divided into four easily digestable sections. You start off understanding the big picture of the development phases of growth. Then you follow the schedules that Simplest Baby has for parents. These are how to keep things in control and also to help your little one achieve these milestones. Next its time to apply the simplest directions, from eating to sleeping to pooping to playing, the Simplest Baby has it covered. Lastly, learn the basics that you need to know. Care, support, health and staying sane throughout parenthood!
