“Alex McCord and Simon van Kempen’s surprisingly down to earth account of their early days of parenting in NYC is as remarkable in its honesty as it is in its detail.”

Writing with unique and humorous insight into the challenges facing city parents today, Alex and Simon use their own hard-won experience as a springboard to discuss a host of parenting topics, including baby’s first six months, traveling with infants, hiring caregivers, disciplining, dealing with accidents, dining out, making the most of urban life, and scheduling time for non-urban escapes.
