Wondering how the holidays will work with a baby or toddler? Whether you are a first-time mom or have been doing this for a while, I want to share with you from personal experience 5 tips to a peaceful holiday.

Babies are funny little creatures and keep us on our toes. You might think that if they don’t sleep during the day, they will sleep longer at night, but that isn’t true. Follow these awake windows and adhere to the amount of daytime sleep to ensure optimal nighttime sleep.

The 4-month sleep regression is on the top 5 list of the most talked-about subjects in my profession. So many frustrated parents come to me because their sweet little newborn who was just on a regular schedule is completely thrown off! So, what the heck? What happened? Why is there a sleep regression at 4 months?

Not everyone needs to hire a sleep consultant, but when you know, you know! If your little one is struggling with short naps, early wake-ups, waking throughout the night, and you are just so tired yourself, it is time!

There are usually 5 signs that it is time to drop a nap. I tell parents that just because any of these signs happen once or twice, they shouldn’t automatically think it’s time to move on to the next nap stage. However, if they consistently do these things over a period of 1-2 weeks, it’s time to drop that nap.
