Should you choose to use this book's support, you will feel so much better about yourself and your parenting."--Madelyn Swift, author and founder of Childright

"Through vivid vignettes and extensive theoretical grounding, Aubrey invites us to see toddlerhood with a fresh pair of eyes, to see young children in positive and compassionate ways. Aubrey's warm, kind, and down-to-earth personality shines through the pages of this book, as she so gently and wisely accompanies you in your parenting journey. Her guidance is honest, practical, and reliable. In this book, Aubrey does not prescribe a one-size-fits-all approach, rather she makes room for you to choose an approach that best works for you. The book is one of a kind, and a must-read for anyone who is looking for effective guidance to navigate through toddlerhood."--Sid Mohandas, Doctoral Researcher, Middlesex University, London

For every parent, grandparent, and teacher of a toddler, Toddler Discipline for Every Age and Stage is an invaluable toolkit!"--Kathryn Miller, Director, The Innovative School
