I got to experience my first ever parenting talk/seminar courtesy of ParentinTV. The parenting talk was held yesterday, around 4 PM (not quite sure because I was a bit late) at The Podium. Topics included int he talk series were, baby hygiene, managing finance, disciplining the kids and some brain booster tips. There were four guest speakers who shared their expertise and knowledge on the fields mentioned.

In the coming days (every Mondays and Wednesdays) I will give an elaborate and long (but not boring) and detailed explanations (and some side comments) on the topics covered in the seminar. For now, I give you a teaser of what you can expect from here.

Dr. Mayla dela Crux, a pediatrician (and a member of Health Dynamics Group) and an advocate of respect for children talks about ways to clean a baby. She also taught us proper ways of holding the baby when taking a bath and a lot more about baby’s hygiene.

Prof. Bessie Rios, the author of the parenting book, Memo ni Mommy, talks about implementing proper discipline on our kids. You can catch her on DZAS and listen to her Memos (parenting advice) and also wait on January for the release of her second book.

Ambi Buloz of Iluvlearning.com shares with us valuable perspective about retirement and saving up. She shares her knowledge on finances and also invites everyone to attend on their finance management seminars (visit their site for more info).

Dr Felix Dimalanta of St. Luke’s discussed with us some points about brainy boosting activities for the babies. He mentioned the importance of communication and interaction with baby as early as a day old.

All in all, it was a fun filled and very informative activity. I never thought I could still learn a lot from them. I got to take home Memo ni Mommy by Bessie Rios and when I am done reading it, I will give you a head’s up about the book. Also got some freebies courtesy of Anion Baby products. I hope they would come up another activity and I hope more mommy bloggers will join me on it.
