Master the Fall Time Change and Sleep Training | Daylight Savings20 Oct 202600:06:52

I’m sorry to break it to you but it’s almost time for the fall time change - aka: Daylight Savings Time.

On Sunday November 1st, the clocks will “Fall Back” and it will start getting darker much earlier. This is the time change that all parents dread.

It can be tough for everyone, but especially for kids, because we basically get an extra hour shoved into our day. Kids can struggle to adjust.

Kids’ bodies are sensitive and absorbing that extra hour can throw off the schedule of even the best sleeper. 

Let me teach you a step-by-step method to survive the time change with everyone’s sleep intact.

When is Too Old to Sleep Train?13 Jan 202600:07:08

What age is too old for sleep training? If you’re wondering when to start sleep training, let’s start with this: your child’s need for sleep is more critical than ever.


Just because your toddler is out of the crib doesn’t mean their sleep habits should go out the window. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, 25% of kids under the age of 5 don’t get enough sleep. 😮


If the optimal time to start sleep training was yesterday, the next best time is today. Here are three reasons why sleep training older children is not only doable but mandatory.

I’ve heard stories about sneaky, room-invading kids for years.


Parents wake up surprised to find their kid sleeping in the bed next to them, or find their child sleeping on the floor. They wake up thinking - “when did little Tommy sneak in here? I didn’t hear anything!”


Okay, if you don’t want your child to end up in your room every night, you have the power to make it stop!


But first we gotta start with some tough love because YOU have as much responsibility in this situation as your child does.

7 ways to Manage PARENTAL PREFERENCE at Bedtime | Awesome Little Sleepers06 May 202500:06:06

Parental preference at bedtime is VERY common among toddlers and preschoolers. I hear from families on a daily basis when their toddler prefers one parent (at bedtime).


If you have a toddler, chances are you’ve experienced this before. 


Whether it’s getting dressed, getting dropped off at school, or just being pushed on the swing. Kids can be very persistent when it comes to their parental preference. 😑


Your child’s parental preference can show up with lots of activities, like going potty or holding hands to walk down the street, but BEDTIME tends to be one of the most difficult to navigate. 


Dealing with strong parental preference at bedtime can really put a real strain on families.


👉 Keep listening to get your time back + learn how to deal with the mommy (or daddy) obsession.

Early Wake Ups | How to PREVENT EARLY MORNING WAKING in 3 year olds25 Mar 202500:06:38

So, how can you prevent early morning waking in your 3 year old? 


You’re dead asleep and then you hear it - your bedroom door creaks open and you hear tiny footsteps coming straight for you. You open one eye and see that it’s 5:15am. Ugh. Why does this keep happening!!! 


Do you just have an early riser? Are you destined to wake up at 5am for the rest of your life?


I can confidently tell you NO! Waking at 5am is not cool for anyone - kids or adults. And there are things you can do to fix it. 


Kids should be able to naturally sleep until at least 6am in the morning. I know 6am may sound early to some but it’s biologically what our kids are set up to do. But for those of you with early risers who keep seeing the 5 o’clock hour every morning, sleeping until 6 might sound like a dream


Let's see how we can make that happen.

Afraid of the Dark? How to Help Kids Overcome Fear02 Jan 202500:07:33

Are your kids afraid of the dark?  Being scared of the dark is common.  Here’s how to help kids overcome fear and be confident, solo sleepers.

A fear of the dark can start as early as 2 or 3 years old when kids' imaginations start to go wild. But, at this age, our kids aren’t mature enough to distinguish between their imagination 😈 and reality 😀.

It’s our job as parents to help. But lots of times we get this wrong and we end up actually encouraging their fear.

So if your child won’t sleep and you think they MIGHT be scared of the dark, keep listening…
