The Blissful Baby Expert, Lisa Clegg, and parenting expert and tonies® ambassador, Sue Atkins join My Baba’s Editor Ellie Thompson to troubleshoot sleep issues in young children. Together, they explore everything from how to implement a healthy bedtime routine, to the importance of a bedtime story via a book or audio player like the Toniebox. They discuss the importance of consistency, as well as common issues surrounding naps and bedtime. They talk through problems of sleep regression, nightmares, stalling at bedtime, separation anxiety and waking too early. A must-listen!
