As its title implies, Joanna Parga-Belinkie’s new book – The Baby Bonding Book: Connecting With Your Newborn – is centered on the connection between the infant and the primary caregiver. The book is thoughtful, smart, practical, and a pleasure to read. It is no wonder that the American Academy of Pediatrics selected Joanna as an official spokesperson and the co-host of its flagship podcast, Pediatrics On Call. Joanna and I discuss her book and tips for parents of newborns next. More information about Tanya and links to resources are below.
