Author Ruth Powell has written this book for all parents who already happily have their children in child care or are thinking about using a centre or programme.

It is so important to be part of your child day even when they attend part or full time care.  It is about staying connected even whilst they are not with you.  

Choosing Child Care is an enjoyable, easy read as it draws on many real life experiences and aims to leave the reader feeling more in touch with their child’s day. It's the ultimate guide - find out everything you need to know about finding and using a child care centre in Australia.

Parent's Embrace Behavioural Guidance

Parents Embrace refers to ‘Embracing Parenting’. Ruth is passionate about holistic parenting and behavioural guidance. Holistic parenting for Ruth refers to consciously parenting through recognising Children’s natural spirituality and the positive impact that the environment, limits, routines, parent child interactions and role modeling can have on children.  

Parents embrace is an affordable telephone and email consulting service that covers a wide range of everyday worries and ongoing behaviour problems that parents are often faced with.  Ruth offers parents clear effective strategies on how to handle challenging behaviour. 

Parents can often find that a behaviour just continues, one stategy may of worked for a while but then the behaviour escalates or it never really stops and the child is just constantly being reprimanded.   Ruth will help you move on from that behaviour - this is a relief for not only parents but the child as well.
