"They’ll be Okay is an essential parents’ toolkit.  Positive and practical.  It is packed with good advice for parenting through all your child’s ages and stages.”

“I was immediately drawn in ... pitched so well in tone and content – readable but not dumbing down the subtlety or complexities of relating ... I am finding my thoughts extended and understanding deepened by reading it. It’s really WELL DONE!”

Psychologist & Parenting Author
