About this listen

The first three months of a newborn baby’s life offer new parents a unique opportunity to lay a solid and loving foundation that will last a lifetime. It is also when parents - whether first-time or not - need unfailing support to help them deal with the countless decisions they face every day.

You Simply Can’t Spoil a Newborn reveals my nurturing approach in calming the most unsettled baby and teaching them to self-settle and resettle. I also share advice on solving common feeding issues and managing time, relationships, and emotional demands in the weeks following birth.

You Simply Can’t Spoil a Newborn is written for fatigued, time-poor parents. The details are clear and succinct. It is structured by topic rather than developmental stages, acknowledging that babies grow at different rates.

Reassuring without being prescriptive, it takes into account modern lifestyles and recognises that every baby - and every parent - is different.

I thought the overall information was very valuable. The suggestions and tips were absolute gold and I have listened to it twice since we had two kids.

Some parts you have to skip as they are not relevant. Some parts are just listening to someone complain about their partner/support/situation rather than providing some useful questions or thoughts that a new parent needs to have before and after birth.

It was really difficult to listen to this book as the reader kept stumbling over her words and making errors. It really detracted from the content. Will try reading the physical book instead.

I’ve never listened to a book with so many mistakes make by the reader.
