The Baby Manual
Baby's First Years
This easily printable pocket guide is for parents. It isn’t about being perfect, but about sharing simple tips, small comforts, and honest reminders that every baby grows in their own way. Think of it as a note quietly passed from one caring hand to another, something to lean on during long nights or to share with a friend who needs encouragement.
