Baby Ecology: Using Science and Intuition to Create the Best Feeding, Sleep, and Play Environment for Your Unique Baby

" I felt seen and cared for while reading this book, empowered by scientifically sound, accurate information presented in a clear, kind way. THIS IS IT. THIS IS THE BOOK "

Do you feel overloaded with baby care advice?

Are you finding that parenting techniques contradict each other, while all claiming to be “best” and “right”?

As a scientist and a mom of three, Anya Dunham knew there couldn’t be only one right way, and that raising a baby requires more than just techniques. She examined hundreds of studies on infant development, sleep, and feeding through the lens of her research field, ecology, and made a key discovery:

There is a biologically optimal nurturing environment for all babies – and within it, a variety of healthy options to meet different babies’ unique needs.

In Baby Ecology , you will find: Scientific findings most relevant to everyday baby care A shift from techniques (reactively solving problems) to a holistic approach (proactively creating the environment for success) Ten biology-based, interconnected building blocks of the environment that nurtures every baby’s unfolding abilities A guide to creating these building blocks in your home in a way that works best for your unique baby and your circumstances
Unlike other parenting books, Baby Ecology offers both scientific findings and helpful advice. Use it to create a strong foundation for your baby, while bringing less stress and more joy to your parenting journey.
