America's foremost baby and childcare experts, William Sears, MD, and Martha Sears, RN, explain the benefits - to both you and your child - of connecting with your baby early.
Might you and your baby both sleep better if you shared a bed? How old is too old for breastfeeding? What is a father's role in nurturing a newborn? How does early attachment foster a child's eventual independence? Dr. Bill and Martha Sears - the doctor-and-nurse, husband-and-wife team who coined the term "attachment parenting" - answer these and many more questions in this practical, inspiring guide. Attachment parenting is a style of parenting that encourages a strong early attachment and advocates parental responsiveness to babies' dependency needs.
The Attachment Parenting Book clearly explains the seven "Baby Bs" that form the basis of this popular parenting style
- Bonding
- Breastfeeding
- Babywearing
- Belief in the language value of baby's cry
- Bedding close to baby
- Balance
- Beware of baby trainers
Here's all the information you need to achieve your most important goals as a new parent to know your child, to help your child feel right, and to enjoy parenting.

"I was expecting this book to be more of a helpful guidebook full of advice and strategies for parents who already want to do attachment parenting. E.g. What do I do if my baby starts screaming in his carseat on the highway? What if my back hurts too much to continue babywearing? Etc. Not helpful. It's more of a defense of attachment parenting. Maybe the Baby Book from the Sear's library would be more helpful in this regard? Anyway, huge disappointment."

- I practice attachment parenting b/c that it the way feel most natural to me. I use many of the advices from Dr. Sear for all of my 3 kids. I have all girls 5,7,10. I don't want to brag about my kids here as I think the results of any parenting method can't really be measure until much later in life. Whether they will grow up as well ground adults with healthy life styes, successful career, happy individual, & a great contributor to human life....but for now, I can tell you that I'm very proud of my children at this ages & we are a very happy loving family. I don't "spoil" my kids as contrary to many incorrect perception about parenting. We try to provide a loving but structure environment for our children.
Dr. Sear offer many great advice in this book & I used it in those days that my kids were babies age. We co-sleep & I nurse my kids. My baby was nurse until she almost 3. They are all very independent now & have their own rooms, which they took care really well. I almost NEVER let my babies cry & always pick them up to comfort them, my kids are great sleepers now, all we do at night is tuck them in with good night kisses, they wake up to use the rest room by themselves. Every once in a while, we allow them to sleep in our beds & that is a special treat.
Except travelling for work, my husband & I NEVER take a vacation without the kids. We rather travel with other family friends so we have the adults companies & the kids have friends their ages to. We enjoy our kids companies & they love ours.
If you don't use all the advice in this book, you can still benefit from reading it & maybe apply some
My mom use the "tough love" method on me . I turn out fine but I always secretly wish she was more gentle with me.
So there is no right or wrong, just practice what you believe in your loving heart & hopefully we will raise the next generation of great human, loving & giving -) - I found this book to clearly and simply convey everything I would most want to transmit to new parents about what is most critical in enabling babies and toddlers to thrive for the long-term through optimal attachment to parents. I have studied the neuroscience of this, which is very impressive and convincing, but not particularly readable unless you are scientifically or psychologically oriented (if so, the work of Allan Shore, PhD is inspiring). Sears makes this invaluable model accessible for the day by day experience of a new, or new-to-attachment, parent, answering many questions that are likely to come up; and laying out practical details for implementing it. With his expertise as a pediatric physician and his hands-on experience, with his wife, of raising eight children, practicing attachment for many years, his advice feels grounded and trustworthy. Other reviewers have commented that it is repetitious but I would describe that as reinforcing and clarifying the most essential intentions and practices of this system. As a child therapist and parent, I cannot say enough about how important healthy attachment is for the deep well-being and development of a child. Sears' book is a great tool for bringing it to life in your own family.
- Another that saved my life and gave me such professional permission to be a MOM. Blessings on the ENTIRE Sears Family-who bucked the system on many occasions in support of the BABY..who is a BABY. Passing it on to the newest mom in my life...
- I bought this book after researching Attachment parenting and quite agreeing with many of the philosophies. I still agree with the general idea of the book; however, this book has a defensive tone as if they are trying to convince someone to try their parenting method who has previously criticized it. It was annoying to have to read over and over again phrases in which the author validated himself. I was also disappointed that it often referred to "many research studies" or "experience says" without actually citing any evidence or research studies. (Occasionally they did cite a study or two.) Honestly, their points were weak and unsupported. I don't necessarily disagree with the author, but he hardly told me anything I didn't already know. There is a whole chapter on breastfeeding, but the chapter focuses mostly on the benefits of breastfeeding instead of strategies to make it successful - this was pretty common throughout the book. I wish it talked more about how to implement their parenting strategy instead of just defending it and listing its benefits.
- If you own The Baby Book or really any of the other books from the Sears library don't bother buying this book, all of this information is repeated throughout their other books. Otherwise, it is a good introduction to attachment parenting, although most of the principals were very intuitive to me so I felt like it was a waste of money. But I'm very glad I bought The Baby Book, it has some basic information on a wide variety of subjects.
- Will teach you to trust yourself & your baby. Teaches you to go with what you believe. It was recommended to me by a developmental professor I had, while studying psychology. Best book recommendation I ever received, as it is helping me raise my little human.
- The authors are encouraging and reassuring. They encourage parents to listen to their guts and instinct, intuition;. I like that. It really is a common sense way of parenting that has been around as long as humans have. Science is now backing up what parents have always felt in their gut and this book encourages. Well worth the investment of time and money to read. Happy parents, happy baby.
- I was expecting this book to be more of a helpful guidebook full of advice and strategies for parents who already want to do attachment parenting. E.g. What do I do if my baby starts screaming in his carseat on the highway? What if my back hurts too much to continue babywearing? Etc. Not helpful. It's more of a defense of attachment parenting. Maybe the Baby Book from the Sear's library would be more helpful in this regard? Anyway, huge disappointment.
