Improving sleep- what it is and what it is not

It’s not about training, crying alone, rigid routines, making your child fit into your life, attempting to get your child to do something they are not ready for; night-weaning, giving up breastfeeding, dummies, room-sharing, or your parenting beliefs.

It is about learning to get to know your child in relationship to their sleep-understanding their signals, helping them to regulate their body clock with some predictable landmarks such as a regular feed, connection, light dark exposure, wake, nap and bedtimes and rituals-all based on their cues.

Supporting, guiding, accompanying them as they develop whatever sleep ability that may help them achieve and maintain their sleep more -at a rate and a pace that you all feel ready for; whilst trusting your instincts and what feels right.
