Brand New Little People Dr Fallon Cook & Dr Laura Conway (PhD's, Sleep Practitioners)

All humans wake multiple times overnight, and we usually don’t remember – we do a quick ‘systems check’ and then return to sleep in just a few seconds. Some babies & toddlers feel very confident and secure in their cots and upon waking at night will happily fall straight back to sleep – but others wake up very upset or startled, and can’t resettle themselves without parent support.  Night waking in older babies and toddlers, tends to become problematic when night wakes are prolonged, require intense support, and parents are becoming increasingly exhausted.

Tune in to hear Dr Fallon and Dr Laura (PhDs) discuss normal night waking, problematic night waking, and the many variables that can make night waking difficult for parents to manage.

Parent questions are also answered, including:


Should I follow my baby’s lead, or start to work towards some predictability each day?
How do I manage my little one’s sleep during illness?
I tried to drop my toddler to just one nap but it didn’t work out, what now?
Can sleep requirements increase?
Can my 3 month old sleep in her own bedroom?
