Kyle Pruett
As one of the most well respected experts on child and family development, Dr. Kyle Pruett is considered a parenting visionary who takes parents deep into the hearts and minds of their children. He puts the emotional wellbeing of children right where it belongs: at the center of child development.
A pioneer in defining the role of men as fathers, Dr. Pruett focuses on fathers as one of the great, often untapped, resources in their children’s lives. “There’s a stronger sense today, among the public and among social scientists, that fathers are valuable,” he says.
Dr. Pruett makes the case for the merits of fathers in his award-winning books The Nurturing Father and Fatherneed. Coupling fatherhood with parenting, he has hosted the television series, Your Child Six to Twelve with Dr. Kyle Pruett. A frequent contributor to The New York Times, Good Housekeeping, and Child, he serves as consultant for CBS Morning News and has appeared on Good Morning America, Oprah, CBS This Morning, and NPR.
Dr. Pruett provides parents, especially fathers, the tools for understanding, nurturing, and enjoying a child’s early development. Offering a thoughtful approach based on decades of groundbreaking research, he demonstrates the skills parents need to steer their children on to a healthy and happy course in life.
