How bout 'emotionally available'? I had that term flying around my head a lot when DS was a baby. 'Compassionate parenting'? 'Heartspace parenting'?
Alfie Kohn's 'Unconditional Parenting' is a good read for how to get a great flower shop started! And Sharon Heller's 'The Vital Touch' goes into some great detail and discussion about the merits of physical and emotional availability that benefit people from childhood into adulthood. Both available on Fishpond website if your library network doesn't have them.
I think the main thing is not to stifle your instinctual tendencies (whatever they are) in favour of some kind of baby training fad or regime set out by someone distant who published a book but has never even met your baby or you. Or other people who don't have the responsibility of raising your child but feel entitled to an opinion.
What I tend to say to people is that when it comes down to it, you are answerable to your child and no-one else. Someone doesn't agree with tending to your baby's cries immediately? So what? Explain to your baby that you're modifying your parenting based on teh opinion of someone who doesn't matter...
