Product reviews for Growing Minds

In an age of misinformation related to parenting advice and support, Growing Minds is just the ticket for an evidence-informed approach to parenting. 

When it comes to raising and educating children, we too often wait downstream, managing the fall when things go wrong. Instead, we should be moving upstream to fix the bridge. What I love about this book is that it equips the reader with a proactive approach to parenting. Katy masterfully moves through some of the biggest pressure points of our time for young people and their families. She unpacks the evidence linked to nutrition, neuroscience, habit-breaking and formation, and more – and rather than presenting this research data in a raw, overwhelming format, Katy helpfully bridges the gap between the key findings and daily family life. 

Parenting is a full-time job. It’s about time we had a proper induction process, an objective resource base, and an evidence-informed approach to getting things right. This book is a timely contribution to this mission.
