See and hear Dr. Diane Sacks, paediatrician and former CPS President, talk about the book.
Dr. Diane Sacks and the CPS have compiled the most current information relating to child health and development into a guide full of easy-to-apply advice that will make this a “go to” resource for generations to come.
Written using clear language, it guides parental decision-making based on three distinct recommendations: “mention at the next doctor’s appointment,” “make an appointment to see the doctor,” or “proceed directly to a clinic or emergency room.”
The book, which is based on CPS recommendations, provides the most-up-to-date information about preparing for baby’s arrival, promoting child health, understanding growth and development milestones, and how to navigate the health care system. It also discusses how to foster good mental health while being able to spot emotional problems and developmental warning signs.
It is a reliable resource for parents of young children that will help them make informed decisions about their child’s well being.
The Canadian Paediatric Society Guide to Caring for Your Child from Birth to Age Five is now available at all major retail book stores.
