Book Nook: Working Mom Blueprint

 In The Working Mom Blueprint: Winning at Parenting without Losing Yourself, Whitney Casares, MD, MPH, FAAP combines honest insights about her own challenges with professional expertise about children of working moms—they thrive!—to create a reassuring guide to navigating modern motherhood. 

I had a chance to review a copy of this book, Dr. Casares speaks with the experience of not only a practicing pediatrician but a mother herself. She writes about topics that aren't typically covered in a parenting book, and covers issues that are unique to working moms - fitting self-care into a routine, working as part of a parenting partnership and delegating duties, finding quality child care, and setting priorities.

The book is clear and easy to read, and really tackles a lot of issues that are important for moms who are juggling careers and motherhood. You can get a feel for Dr. Casaras and her style in the video below.
