Drawing on principles developed by Dr Montessori, The Montessori Baby explores how to interact with your baby from birth to age one with love, respect, and insight. Co-written by Junnifa Uzodike and Simone Davies, author of The Montessori Toddler, it is filled with practical ideas for understanding what is happening with your baby through the first year, and how you can mindfully assist in their learning and development.
