It’s been about 25 years since I so much as changed a diaper. All the new sleep rules felt intimidating, but now I see how simple and easy it is.

I feel completely prepared to help my daughter with her new baby

I have 4 kids of my own, but this is my first grandbaby. I actually learned a lot more than I expected!

This is a crash course on what is ‘new’ in parenting these days, plus a refresher of the things I haven’t thought about in decades!

I would hate for anything to happen to my grandson on my watch, so I was especially grateful for the CPR and choking demos.

Easy to navigate, and loved how I could rewatch things
