About the Book
As parents, we know how vital sleep is for your child's growth, development, and overall well-being. Yet, achieving consistent and restful sleep can often feel like an elusive goal. This book will equip you with the knowledge and tools you need to help your child develop healthy sleep habits that will benefit them for years to come.
I wrote this book as if I were talking to a new client, who hired me for sleep consulting. I cover babies and toddlers in this book, but the information is applicable to older children also. In this book, I go over everything I'd cover with a new family I'm working with, so think of it like a DIY sleep training guide!
What to Expect
We'll cover everything from understanding your child's sleep needs to implementing gentle sleep training techniques. We'll explore how to create a sleep-friendly environment, establish consistent sleep routines, and manage sleep transitions and regressions. You will be empowered to:
Identify the sleep requirements and developmental stages for babies and toddlers at different ages
Use a sleep diary to track and analyze your child's sleep patterns and identify specific sleep challenges
Set up a sleep environment that meets safety guidelines and optimizes conditions such as room temperature, lighting, and noise levels
Create and implement effective bedtime and naptime routines
Apply gentle sleep training methods to help your child learn to fall asleep independently
Navigate common sleep regressions and transitions, and adjust sleep routines accordingly
Monitor your child's sleep progress and make informed adjustments to their sleep plan
Our approach is grounded in understanding and compassion. We recognize that every child is unique, and what works for one may not work for another. That's why we focus on gentle, evidence-based methods that respect your child's individual needs and your family's dynamics.
