You likely know the importance of a bedtime routine to help prepare your child's body for sleep, but did you know a nap routine is just as important? A pre-nap routine doesn't have to be elaborate. A few simple steps to cue to your child that sleep is coming is all it takes, and it can resemble what you're already doing at bedtime. For babies, I'd recommend: ⭐️ Diaper change ⭐️ Read one book ⭐️ Put baby in sleep sack ⭐️ Turn on white noise For toddlers, you can build out those steps a little mor

Here’s why I’m a big fan of pacifiers for newborns: ⭐️ Sucking on a pacifier can be soothing for newborns and can reduce crying ⭐️ Newborns have a non-nutritive sucking need that the pacifier can fulfill ⭐️ Studies have shown a reduction in SIDS risk in babies who use a pacifier for sleep, compared to babies who didn’t. ⭐️ There’s very little evidence to support nipple confusion when it comes to pacifier use.

7-7 That seems to be the gold standard for baby sleep
7-7 That seems to be the gold standard for baby sleep. But not every baby is going to sleep 12 hours every night. My baby didn’t. Some babies are fine with 11-11.5 hours of sleep, especially depending on how their naps go. I find some parents wanting a perfect 12-hour stretch when in reality, 11.5 hours is still a good stretch for many babies. I know as a new mom I felt like I was doing something wrong if my baby slept 11.5 hours. Now, as a Pediatric Sleep Consultant, I understand some babies ne
