Kangaroo Babies

Description

This work presents a completely natural method of caring for newborn babies, with the support of extensive scientific research into its benefits. It is already a major bestseller in Europe. It offers a technique that will appeal to the growing holistic birth market. It features: impeccable author credentials, and there is strong media and professional interest in this method already; and marketing with specialist groups. It features and reviews in the national press and baby magazines. "Kangaroo Mother Care" was created to help low-birth-weight-infants develop into healthy babies. Newborn babies remain with their mothers who supply the benefits of incubator care; and babies are bound to their mothers, or other carers, in skin-to-skin contact. The physical contact regulates the babies' body temperature, and provides essential stimulation, as well as initiating bonding. Providing a history and beautifully illustrated practical guide to kangaroo mothering, Nathalie Charpak provides an essential guide to an approach that will change the way mothers relate to newborn babies, and improve the way hospitals treat premature babies.
