About this listen

A practical survival guide to help parents deal with common toddler issues from TV's most sympathetic and non-judgemental Nanny, Laura Amies.

Hilarious real-life stories and practical tips from TV’s Nanny Amies–who has seen it all before! Is your toddler eating strange foods, refusing to sleep, throwing tantrums and addicted to their screen? You’re not alone, and Nanny Amies is here to help.

Laura Amies–the expert toddler tamer from the TV show Toddlers Behaving (Very) Badly–shares her essential toolkit of tried-and-tested techniques for dealing with the most common sticky situations she’s encountered over her 25-year career.

In her warm and funny yet no-nonsense style, Nanny Amies covers all the things keeping you awake at night, plus the effects that different parenting styles can have. Listen to discover the dummy fairy, six methods for potty training, tips for managing emotions (yours too!) and what to do in an emergency.

Perfect for tired parents in need of a laugh who are looking for supportive, practical advice from a private nanny–for a fraction of the cost.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I absolutely love Nanny Amies, she is so knowledgeable and passionate about the early years. I wish I'd known about you when I'd had my first as I feel like a better parent with my second with all the guidance. I love the additional PDFs so I can can go back to reference parts under certain chapters.
I recommend this to all parents navigating toddlers!
