Hello! I am an author, journalist and freelance writer. My book Sneaky Parenting – Smart Shortcuts to Happy Families (White Ladder Press) was published on March 31 2008. ISBN 978 1 905410 28 6.
Here is some information about the book, taken from the White Ladder Press website:
Are you a perfect parent? A yummy mummy or a delicious dad? Or are there days when you feel more like a stale, worn out shell, struggling to do the best for your child? Feed them 5-a-day, play games with them, keep their minds stimulated, bath them, read to them, wash their clothes, and still have a life of your own…
Luckily, it’s perfectly possible to be a brilliant parent without being a perfect one. You just need to know all the sneaky tips, tricks and strategies that Jo Wiltshire has collected from loads of real parents. Parents who care more whether the kids are happy than whether their clothes are clean. That way you’ll be able to give your child everything they need without draining yourself dry in the process.
You’ll find countless clever shortcuts and real life tricks in here to help look after your baby, toddler or pre-schooler:
- potty training
- mealtimes
- sibling rivalry
- holidays
- getting dressed
- socialising
- minor illnesses
- cleanliness
- manners
- messiness
- grandparents
- baby equipment
If you want a fast track to a happy family, this is it. The book that tells you how to deal with the real stuff – quickly, with humour, and in time for a cup of tea with EastEnders.
