Reflective Parenting: Raising Emotionally Healthy Children

Author(s) : Sheila Redfern

Reviews and Endorsements

Sheila Redfern’s Reflective Parenting is a masterful blend of clinical rigour and compassionate wisdom. Drawing on decades of practice, Redfern translates the best of developmental research into clear, practical guidance that invites adults to look inward as they nurture the children in their care. Every insight is grounded in evidence, yet delivered with a warmth that makes complex ideas accessible and immediately useful. Ten years on, this new updated book feels even more relevant: it empowers parents, carers, teachers and therapists alike to understand the emotional worlds of children—and their own—so they can respond with attuned, confident compassion. This anniversary edition is not just a reprint; it is a vital companion for anyone committed to fostering secure, healthy relationships across the generations.
