“I truly couldn’t have survived (…) without the help of Dr Golly and the information in his book.”

Tayla Broad

There are a lot of baby books out there that aren’t worth your money or time. But trust me, this one is!

Nikolina Koevska Kharoufeh

Dr Golly is every new mama’s best friend. In those early days of being a new mama he gave me the confidence I needed.

Melissa Ambrosini

Dr Golly is a wealth of knowledge and this resource is full of gems for parents in those daunting early weeks of parenthood.

Jerri Jones

Wow! How I wish this book was available with my first child! This book covers absolutely EVERYTHING you could need to know in your first 4 months of baby raising and is the perfect asset to compliment your transition out of hospital to your own home.

Isabella Messina

Insightful and extremely helpful for new parents! Easy to read and understand and even enjoyable unlike so many baby books!

Dena Kaplan

It’s perfect for dads, it’s simple and pictures make it an easy read. Highly recommend the book to first time parents.

Tahan Lew Fat

I am absolutely not surprised that this book debuted at #1. Such an amazing book for first time parents and parents to be! Super practical, easy to read and with zero judgement.

Jessica Frank

It’s everything I needed and more. Your Baby Doesn’t Come With A Book is genuinely your one stop shop for information about bub, that you would normally frantically search for on the internet as a new parent. You can absolutely trust the information in the book because it comes straight from a trusted source being Dr Golly.

Sarah Bragias

I’ve absolutely loved the book so far, it’s everything I was missing when I was becoming a first-time mum. I love how simple and easy it is to read and how accessible the index is for when I’m needing an answer to a problem right away.

Kayla Gane

Dr Golly has absolutely nailed this book! The information is so easily digestible, and full of great tips.

Shonee Bowtell

I wish I had this book when I had my babies. The advice is realistic and reassuring and the illustrations make the advice so much easier to absorb.

Brittany Darling

Take a look inside

An illustrated, easy to digest baby book that is broken down into bite-sized chunks and easy to find chapters.

First Time Parents

Best read in the third trimester – you’ll feel empowered going into birth and beyond.

Mums and Dads

This isn’t just a book for mums – Dr Golly encourages ALL parents & carers to learn from this book.

Baby Showers!

You’ll be the toast of the party if you arrive with a copy of this book; the most practical gift.
