Raising A Self starter Over 100 Tips For Parents And Teachers
Does your child frequently holler “Mommmm!” or “Daaaaaad!” at top volume whenever he or she needs help for the most minor of problems? If so, consider your blood pressure lowered: Raising a Self-Starter is bound to come in enormously handy, whether you’re maneuvering through the terrible twos or trying to inspire a high-school student to emerge from a senior slump. Ok, so your kid may not grow up to be a doctor (as we are led to believe the stethoscope-wearing girl on the cover apparently will be), but at least you can arm yourself with these tools and tactics for parents who want to help children help themselves.
Author Elizabeth Hartley-Brewer’s advice is thankfully based on common sense and is refreshingly free of the jargon so often found in parenting books these days. She includes a personality quiz so parents can determine what kind of child they’re dealing with, and encouragement and discipline can then be effectively tailored to maximize the child’s self-motivation. For parents looking for a succinct, practical reference for all ages, Raising a Self-Starter promises to make parenting just a little bit easier.

5 Stars A book that all parents and teachers will find useful
This book is very well written. It is meant for parents and teachers and is done in an easy to read and succinct manner. It touches on every aspect of sensory integration. You will find information here on smell, taste, touch, vision, the effect of the environment in general, and more. It wone me over with the sentence All children need discipline. It has been my experience that many parents whose children receive a diagnosis of anything that affects behavior, simply throw up their hands in resignation and say “There is nothing I can do, he/she has

Nanny to the Rescue Straight Talk and Super Tips for Parenting in the Early Years
America’s nanny offers a large dose of healthy parenting advice with secrets for raising happy, secure, and well-balanced babies and toddlers.
Babies don’t come with instructions. And since today’s parents are so overwhelmed with schedules and demands, they have little time to bone up on their parenting skills. Often removed from grandparents and relatives who in times past lived next door or just down the street, they have no one to guide them through the disorienting world of raising children. Enter Nanny to the Rescue! Michelle LaRowe, 2004 International Nanny Association “Nanny of the Year,” gives her tried and true solutions to childcare. Her expertise with chapters titled “Who’s the boss?” and “Discipline is not a four letter word” gives confidence to parents who need specific ideas for real day-to-day problems. A proud member of Christian Nannies, Michelle offers foundational truths sure to help encourge moms and dads.

2 Stars Would prefer a “secular” version
Most of the information in this book is really not earth shattering and is basic common sense. Also, this book is NOT for non-Christians and should really mention the fact that it is very Christian-based in its title or description– I was completely taken aback by it and frankly, put off.
5 Stars GREAT BOOK!
I could not put this book down! Michelle LaRowe did an awesome job!
5 Stars Great book
Being a new mom, I needed a book to guide me in toddler parenting w/o compromising discipline and love- this was the book I needed. It was a great plus to know that the author is a Christian (my faith also), thus she explains parenting from Christ’s perspective.
5 Stars Must read
Informative and useful. A great book with practical advice you can use right away that actually works.
5 Stars Essential!
I’m a nanny with over 5 years of experience with multiples. You wrote the book I’ve always wanted to! Way to go! I plan on getting one for my employers when I leave this job and will also be purchasing one to keep for myself at home.
