Frequently Asked Questions
Do you ever suggest cry-it-out or variations of it?
No! I am fully committed to a holistic approach to baby sleep that builds attachment and remains responsive to your baby’s needs - always. I do not recommend timed checks or anything of the sort.
Will there be crying when changing your baby’s sleep habits? Possibly. but I will never ask you to leave them alone to cry. Crying is your baby’s only form of communication so they may protest when changes are made to how they’re settling to sleep or where they are sleeping. However, you’ll be there to respond, reassure, and support your baby through these changes.
I’m pregnant, what’s the best resource to start with?
The Newborn Sleep Guide is also perfect for expecting moms. If you’re unsure of what to expect when you bring your baby home and you don’t want to be blindsided by baby sleep, this guide is perfect for you.
Inside I’ll teach you:
✨What’s normal for newborn sleep
✨How to optimize your baby’s sleep
✨How to set strong foundations for your baby’s sleep
✨How to troubleshoot when challenges arise
If you’re feeling totally lost in baby prep and don’t have a big village to ask questions to, I also created The Baby Ready Playbook. It is designed for new moms who are constantly researching and overwhelmed by the baby world. It walks you through everything you need to do to get ready for your baby and prepare a peaceful postpartum season. It’s a text-based course, set up across 20 days with an action for each day, that will have you ready for your baby without any overwhelm.
