Healthy sleep habits to help the whole family thrive | Catalina Lau - Moonlight Baby Sleep Mamas on a Mission
-
- Kids & Family
Remember when you were pregnant and getting ready for the baby? You probably read a lot books about birth, right? We all did. And then one of the many nights you're up trying to settle a screaming baby, you start to wonder "why the heck didn't anyone teach me about sleep?" That would have been useful, right? Well, it's not too late to get the lowdown on the science of sleep.
Now, I want to say if you're going through the torment of sleep deprivation or exhaustion from a baby (or kid) that just won't rest, I'm so very sorry. I've been there and it's bloody hard. And I'm sure you've thought "maybe tonight will be the night, they'll sleep longer" or "it'll all be over soon. It's just a phase. A really looong one." But what I do know is that when you're in the depth of sleep deprivation, it's hard to see that there's help and even harder to ask for it.
That's why I've invited Catalina Lau, a baby sleep consultant from Moonlight Baby Sleep to help you. As a Mum of two, she can empathise with you because it was her own sleep deprivation that led her to wanting all of her questions about sleep answered.She knows that when the baby isn't sleeping, the whole family suffers. And you really don't have to.
In the episode, Catalina explains the process of working with a sleep consultant and when's the right time to work with one. Catalina shares lots of great info about the effects of babies and kids being over-tired and how this is one of the most common reasons for sleep challenges. We also chat about how Catalina creates sleep plans with parents that ensures their not house-bound due to day naps. And lastly, I can't help but ask Catalina about what to do when facing the ultimate parenting dilemma - you pull up at home and the kids have fallen asleep. What should we do? You'll have to listen to find out.
Now Catalina also has an online store that sells sleep-aid products that she recommends to families. She is kindly giving all listeners a generous 20% off products and services at Moonlight Baby Sleep until the end of March 2020. Just use the code mamasonamission when you visit moonlightbabysleep.com.au.
