About the Book

In his debut book, Dr. Joel “Gator” Warsh, a practicing board-certified pediatrician and an expert in integrative medicine, encourages parents and caregivers to ask questions, while simultaneously reconciling the often-intimidating divide between traditional and alternative health and parenting philosophies. Parenting at Your Child’s Pace provides much-needed guidance for the first three years of life.

Amidst the ever-increasing divisive world in which we live, Dr. Warsh’s refreshing approach harmoniously bridges the gap between the “right way” and the way that is right for your unique, individual child—of course, within the confines of reasonable and safe. Using the wealth of resources available to modern caregivers, this book empowers them to trust their instincts, while making informed and confident choices affecting the health of their newborns and toddlers.
