Summary: The obesity epidemic has found us unprepared to help clients take on the challenge of lifestyle change. This book offers practitioners an approach that will help them successfully engage with parents and carers, and encourage them to give their babies and toddlers an optimal start to life. It explores the essentials for working in the key lifestyle areas of parenting, eating behaviour, nutrition, physical activity and emotional well-being. Each chapter opens with a clear explanation of the evidence to date, and guides the reader through the Henry approach with ideas on how to work in a sensitive area. The book concludes with a chapter for those working with families where obesity is already a problem.
