Product Description
Professional herbalist, Shonda Parker, teaches mothers what can be safely treated at home, how to treat with nutritional and botanical medicine, and when to seek professional help. Traditional medicine has given us shots, pills, and expensive treatments. Shonda provides moms with homegrown remedies that are easily available, inexpensive, and that work wonders! As a revival of interest in natural health care occurs, this book is designed to provide a continuing education class for mothers as family health practioners. Mothers observe, evaluate, and even medicate their children on a daily basis. By nature, mothers become family health practioners, but seek other opinions when appropriate. This book will equip any mother to address her family's day-to-day health needs with confidence and is critical for every mother who is focused on raising healthy kids.

 Excellent resource for novice prescribers with children January 3, 2002
12 out of 13 found this review helpful
As a mommy of two very young children (3 and 1) and aspiring to be the mommy of more to come I find this to be a wonderful resource for diagnosing and treating all common ailments for children as well as adults. Very easy to read and understand, organized in a user-friendly manner. Very concise index which helps you to quickly find the ailment or herb you are looking for. I would highly recommend this book to anyone with small children who prefers homeopathic medicine to conventional medicine.

Shonda Parker's book is the first I've read on this topic with a combination of excellent theology and a balanced view regarding herbs/nutrition. It is thoroughly Christian and reminds Mommies to trust in God's sovereignty while equipping them to make educated choices for excellent care of their little blessings.

I found this book extremely helpful in guiding me to be educated and organized with my interest in herbal health for my family. Shonda presents a balanced program for helping yourself and your family, and using conventional medical advice. Most of all she provides a professional approach to someone just beginning to investigate the idea of natural health, that makes it seem normal to take care of your family in this manner.
Anyone with children needs this book!! May 24, 2001

Another great book from Shonda! This is the one I turn to more than all my other books for dealing with childhood ailments. I have a friend whose baby had severe diaper rash caused by yeast. He had been on nystatin and it wasnt getting any better. My friend called me and I looked in this book. I gave my friend her recommendations and she called me back two hours later to say how amazing it worked. A bleeding diaper rash she had been fighting for two weeks using conventional methods was completely cleared within two days using the methods stated in this book!! You wont be disappointed!!
EXCELLENT!!! July 28, 2007

I have referenced this book on several occasions while dealing with my children's illnesses. This book has kept me from making some serious mistakes with my children, and it has also kept me from putting my children on an endless round of antibiotics for minor things. I have used her wisdom to treat my children on various occasions, and would recommend this book as a household reference for anyone desiring the best for your family.
