'Smart Parenting' launches the yaya manual

-

MANILA, Philippines - As much as you want to be hands-on in rearing your children, this fast-paced world forces you to entrust your children to the care of others. While daycare centers may be the solution elsewhere in the world, here it is yaya that comes to the rescue. Smart Parenting has come up with the “Yaya Manual,” a basic guide to hiring, training, and managing your yaya.

Author Tisha C. Bautista says, “The Smart Parenting Yaya Manual was written particularly for first-time moms, working moms (who need to run their household via remote control), as well as moms who are lucky enough to have yayas in their employ.”

The book gives tips on hiring the right yaya for your child, precautionary steps to avoid yaya perils, assessment tools to evaluate your yaya’s potential and performance, and more. It also has pages written in Filipino especially for yaya to learn the proper way to carry, burp, bathe, and change the baby; games she can play with baby to boost development; and how to store and prepare breast milk. Easy-to-use forms, checklists, and charts also allow yaya to track baby’s schedules and needs.

While this primer on basic yaya training may give you a yaya who is both competent and caring in helping you raise your child, Bautista has some encouraging words for mothers: “Remember, no matter how good or well-trained your staff becomes, yaya will never be mama. Never doubt, mothers always know best — no matter how imperfect we are.”

Launched on March 14 at Fully Booked High Street, The Smart Parenting Yaya Manual is now available at newsstands, bookstores, and supermarkets nationwide at P195 per copy.

Summit Media is the largest magazine publishing company in the Philippines, with 20 titles under its belt to cater to individuals with different lifestyles, attitudes, and passions: Candy, Cosmopolitan, Disney’s Princess, Entrepreneur, FHM, Good Housekeeping, High School Musical, Martha Stewart Weddings, Men’s Health, K-Zone, OK!, Preview, Real Living, Smart Parenting, Top Gear, Total Girl, Town & Country, YES!, Yummy, and now, Women’s Health.
