Baby and Child Care:

The Baby Booklet is the text of my new parents' brochure. It contains answers to some frequently asked questions and a guided tour of the newborn. It's most useful for parents of children under one year old.

The Parents' Letter

The Parents' Letter is a newsletter distributed by Email. Currently, this is quarterly, but I would consider making it bimonthly or monthly if there is enough interest. Selected excerpts from the Parents' Letter are available.

If you have subscribed to the Parents' Letter, but have not received a confirmation note, check your return address in your e-mail software, and try again.
