    You Can't MAKE Your Baby or Toddler Sleep (Here's What You Can Do Instead)

    You Can't MAKE Your Baby or Toddler Sleep (Here's What You Can Do Instead)

    "She woke up for 15 minutes during her nap...WHY? How can I make her sleep?" "He played for 20 minutes with his trucks after bedtime, how can I make him sleep instead?" These are total normal questions I get from clients, and here is what I tell them, and I want you to know: You can't. You cannot control your child's eyelids closing and falling asleep. Moreso, I don't want you to, and I don't care at all if either of the above scenarios occur. These are totally normal things!
    In today's episode, I want to help you release the urge to try and make your baby or toddler the perfect sleeper. No one is. Instead? My goal through the process for any client (and anyone listening to this!) is that your child is given the gift of knowing how to put themselves to sleep (and back to sleep when they wake!) and you, as the parent, have the gift of being able to release. Release the urge to feel that you should or even can control their exact sleep stats (leave me alone, Nanit!) and instead have the confidence that you A) are offering your child sleep at times that are appropriate B) trusting your child has the skills and will do with that time what they want and C) you have the tools to know when to make a change or seek help if something changes that is really abnormal. Bliss!

    Melatonin + Kids: When (And When Not) To Use It, And What To Do Instead

    Melatonin + Kids: When (And When Not) To Use It, And What To Do Instead

    Guilty of having tried melatonin to get a restless kid to sleep? You're very much not alone. Today I'm going to do a bit of a deep dive into melatonin use in kids - what melatonin really is, what data supports using it for children, when NOT to use it for children (spoiler - in the vast majority of kids, we don't want to), and why we want to avoid it. Most of all, I'll share some tactical things you can think about to help your child sleep without using any medications, and what to do if none of them seem to work!

    ENCORE: Why You Need To Take A Solo Trip With Your Kids

    ENCORE: Why You Need To Take A Solo Trip With Your Kids

    Last night I got home after a *magical* 30ish hours at a hotel with my oldest son, Teddy, who is now 7 years old. Today, I'm re-sharing why I do these trips with each of my kids - I hope it inspires you to do one!
    Some of my favorite memories of my entire LIFE? The solo one night trips I take with each of my three kids. Today I'm sharing with you guys when I started doing these trips, what purpose they serve, and how it's helped me deepen my bond with each child. If you have the time and means to do it, a solo one night trip with your child (especially if you have more than one) can be an incredible, unforgettable experience.

    How To Stand Up To Bedtime Stall Tactics

    How To Stand Up To Bedtime Stall Tactics

    The drama! The tears! The begging! Bedtime stall tactics can be a brutal way to end an otherwise happy day with your toddler. In today's episode, I'm going to share both some concrete steps you can take to curb them, but also a way to reframe the message that allowing stall tactics is sending your child - to make it easier for you to stand up to them even when it feels hard - for their sake and yours!

More Brittany Sheehan Sleep Please!

If you want exclusive sleep support, the options on the website are the way to go AND if you love Brittany-style insight on other topics, this is your chance to branch out! Funny! Fascinating!

MauraThies ,

Love!

So helpful, affirming, data-backed, and humorous. Brittney seems to have covered every relevant sleep/ parenting/ etc topic…but still manages to come up with new, equally relevant episodes. I so appreciate the information she shares, and in such an easily digestible manner.

Franklin0307 ,

A must listen!

I started following Brittany on IG a couple years ago and was thrilled when she came out with a podcast. I now listen to her episodes every week. I appreciate her sense of humor, knowledge, and objectivity. I just had my second baby 10 weeks ago and have found myself going back and listening to her episodes a second time. Her episode on dropping the swaddle inspired me to start transitioning my baby out of the swaddle earlier than I did with my first (I was very nervous!) and it’s been so much smoother than expected. I highly recommend listening to all of her episodes - they’re gold!
