Being sleep deprived isn't fun, is it! Let's face it, if your little is not sleeping then neither are you.

This will take a huge toll on you and your family, particularly when it is an ongoing issue. This week's guest, Kim Davis, knows all about being sleep deprived after being unable to get her son to sleep for more than 20 minutes at a time for naps or sleep overnight.

And Kim went through this for more than two and a half years and finally reached the point where she needed answers and to find a better way. This led Kim into her career as a pediatric sleep consultant.

Kim shares loads of tips and insights in this episode and I learnt lots from her. You'll hear Kim and I talk about topics including the following:-

• Why you need to be consistent and respond the same way every time to avoid confusing your little one.
• How to avoid overstimulation when it is approaching their bedtime so they know it's their calming time.
• Why an early bedtime is beneficial and doesn't mean your little one will wake up earlier!

And much more.
