Featured Guest Expert on the Parenting in the First Three Years podcast!
I am honored to announce I was a featured Guest Expert on the Parenting in the First Three Years podcast hosted by child development expert Ann McKitrick, MS.
This new podcast Parenting in the First 3 Years helps you understand what makes your child tick and how you can create an environment where optimum development occurs. The podcast addresses the unspoken “I should know this but I don’t” of new parenthood, giving you practical, actionable steps to take in each episode.
Sleep is a learned skill like crawling and walking. Parents must create the optimal environment for them to learn this skill just as they would every other developmental milestone. Ann and I had a great conversation and dove into all things sleep! Check out episode 10: Help Your Baby Sleep Better at Night to hear us address topics including:
What we worry about when a baby isn’t sleeping
How much sleep babies need
Typical nighttime sleep disruptions
Signs your child is going through a milestone
What’s normal when getting a newborn to fall asleep
The 3 skills a child needs to be an independent sleeper
Sleep training your baby
Can a child just “figure it out” on their own?
Practical tips you can use tonight
