This book is a wise and supportive companion for anyone wanting to feel more resourced and understood on their parenting journey.' Dr Caroline Boyd, Parenting Clinical Psychologist and Author 'Coping with Early Parenting: The Magic and Mess of the First Few Years is a beautifully written blend of science, lived experience, and deep compassion.

A book I wish I’d had when I first became a parent. This book reminds us that good parenting isn’t about perfection, but about connection, curiosity, and repair.
