‘The best book on parenting’ - Guardian

‘Naomi Stadlen’s What Mothers Do makes you feel like a million dollars’ - Zoe Williams

Have you spent all day taking care of your baby or toddler and ended up feeling like you ‘did nothing all day’? Do you sometimes struggle to feel satisfied with what you’ve achieved and tell yourself that you should have accomplished more with your time? Perhaps it's because you can't see how much you're already striving.

In this unique and insightful look at motherhood, Naomi Stadlen draws from many years of working with hundreds of other mothers from various ages and backgrounds. She explores mothers' experiences to reveal what they do - and you do - when it may seem, to everyone else, that they’re doing nothing.

If you are a mother and have ever felt: that no one understands what you do all day; overwhelmed by your feelings about the baby; tired all the time; that nothing prepared you for motherhood; uncertain about what your baby seems to want; snappy with your partner - you will find this book the most reassuring read you’ve ever had.
