Book Summary
Raise self-confident, self-reliant children using
the RIE (Resources for Infant Educarers)
Approach.
Your baby knows more than you
think. That's the heart of the principles and teachings of
Magda Gerber, founder of RIE (Resources for Infant
Educarers), and Educaring. BABY KNOWS BEST is based on
Gerber's belief in babies' natural abilities to develop at
their own pace, without coaxing from helicoptering or
hovering parents. The Educaring Approach helps parents see
their infants as competent people with a growing ability to
communicate, problem-solve, and self-soothe.
BABY
KNOWS BEST is a comprehensive resource that shows
parents how to respond to their babies' cues and signals;
how to develop healthy sleep habits; why babies need
uninterrupted playtime; and how to set clear, consistent
limits. The result? More relaxed parents and more confident,
self-reliant children.
