Description: There is finally an intelligent childhood health journal to help busy parents feel more confident managing their child's health and wellness. Your Child's Health & Wellness Record and the companion Document Organizer were created by a health professional who has three children who have had various health issues, one with a learning disability. Input was provided by many physicians, medical specialists, other health and wellness professionals, and parents, including those whose children have complex health issues. The result is a health journal for every child, from pregnancy on!

Jackie's Review: This amazing book and organizer is a must have for any parent. Upon receiving the organizer and record book today, my first impression was positive.  I was impressed with the high-quality materials used and of the simply breathtaking photographs. As I looked deeply into both books, I was soon equally impressed with the depth of content. There is a place for virtually everything a parent needs! The wellness record is full of useful information, tips and space to record important information from doctor's wellness visits to specialty appointments to hospitalizations. As every parent knows, you need to access certain information throughout your child's lifespan. Even at my children's ages (10, 12 and 13), I am constantly pulling out developmental information (milestones), immunization records, hospitalization information, physician and specialist contact information, and emergency contact information. Had there been such a wonderful resource as this during the early years of my children's lives, we would surely have saved a lot of valuable time that we used searching through unorganized files that have grown into boxes full of miscellaneous paper over the years. Karen Melnick has done an amazing job at capturing a parent's need for organization. Whether your child is typically developing or has special needs, these two items will be a welcome, time-saving addition to your home.
