Patient Parent: Because they're only little once

'A very clear, easy to consume book that sets a strong foundation for good parenting.'
Andy Nelson

'I really enjoyed David's book - a peek into the challenges and opportunities ahead in parenting. It's very approachable and a fun read.'
Paul Millerd

Ten years ago, David Willans realised he needed to be a calmer, more patient parent. What he read and tried didn't work so David spent years working out what does.

The principles, tactics and guide to the ages and stages of child development have been used by parenting organisations worldwide. David has directly worked with thousands of parents helping them be more patient and present with their children.

The book is based on David's experience advising the UN and UK government on behavioural change, research from therapeutic parenting, child development, neuroscience and psychology, together with a lot of experimentation to uncover what works.

It's for parents with children aged 12 and under, because David knows just how much kids change.

'I'm helping to raise my two-year-old grand-daughter and as I turn to this book again and again, I know I'm doing a better job this time around, thanks to someone else having taking the trouble to give me a road map.'
