Am I doing what's right for my baby?

Gaby Velazquez discusses parenting challenges and Montessori principles for early childhood development.

A few of the topics/questions covered: ~"I just don't have time — what do I do?" ~"Is my child behind language wise, and how do I aid him?" ~"Montessori at home — what's that like?" ~"How do I help my child become a great eater?" "Did Maria Montessori herself have anything to say about early eating, e.g. baby-led weening?"
