Navigating the Sea of Sleep Advice: Steering Clear of the Storms
We've all been there – lost in the vast sea of conflicting advice on how to navigate the turbulent waters of baby sleep. Moms' groups, while full of camaraderie, can sometimes become stormy grounds for well-meaning, but questionable sleep suggestions.
Cry it out method is NOT the only option for sleep training
Sleep Coaching CAN honor the nursing relationship
Sleep Coaching CAN strengthen the parent-child bond
Sleep Coaching CAN support family values and goals
The key is to find the right methodology for the temperament of the child and the family and to
coach properly through the steps and stages of your child learning their skills of sleep.
Like so many of my other clients, Stacy felt that…
“Sleep training sounded like putting her in her crib and letting her cry herself to sleep in a dark room alone, which was terrifying for me because I had some separation anxiety to begin with.”
After the recommendation of a friend, Stacy reached out to me at Blissful Baby Sleep Coaching and was pleased to find that Gentle Sleep Coaching is not what she expected. This family experienced a Total Family Sleep Transformation and are enjoying and experiencing the benefits of a peaceful nights including:
Baby is sleeping 11/11.5 hours a night uninterrupted
Baby taking 2.5-3 hour naps
Stronger nursing relationship
Confident parenting
Dad and baby bonding time
More patience
Date nights out
Happier overall with live and transition to being with a parent
Stacy wants to share her experience with Blissful Baby Sleep coaching with sleep deprived families. Here is what she had to say:
"Sleep Coaching with Blissful Baby Sleep Coaching was really a gentle approach. Our daughter was never “crying it out” alone and the whole process was just really gentle. We found Joanna through friends and working with her was the best decision of our lives”
