Before you jump into sleep training, let’s make sure you’re set up for success. In this episode, I’m walking you through how to prepare for sleep training. Not just logistically, but mentally and emotionally too.

As a baby and toddler sleep consultant (and a mom of 3), I’ve seen how much smoother the process goes when you’ve got the right pieces in place before you start. From setting up the sleep space and creating a sleep log to getting on the same page with your partner, I’ll share the exact prep steps I walk my clients through.

Sleep training can feel big and nerve-racking, but having a plan (and knowing what to expect) makes all the difference.

If your toddler is dropping the nap or going on a full-blown nap strike, you’re not alone. In this episode, I’m walking you through the nap transition and how to build a quiet time routine that actually works.

As a certified parenting coach and sleep consultant, I’ve helped so many families navigate this stage, and I promise, quiet time can become something your child looks forward to (and that gives you a break, too).

For the kids, it’s a chance to reset without overstimulation. For me, it’s a chance to reset too—sometimes that means lunch in peace, other times it means a workout or a few quiet minutes by the pool.

When it comes to fire safety for kids, there’s a lot of information out there—but what do firefighters actually recommend? In this episode, I sit down with my friend, a firefighter, lieutenant, CPR instructor, paramedic, and dad of four, to get his expert take on common fire safety questions parents have.

We cover:
