We all just survived the time change of Daylight Saving and now it’s spring break. It’s time for a fun family trip and often that means different time zones, messing with naps, or staying up late. Nothing lights up my soul more than travel, so I do everything I can to make sure sleep stays intact during our family trip.

If your adorable little “alarm clock” is waking you up every morning super early, the upcoming time change can work in your favor. When I talk about early, I mean the early riser that wakes at 4:30 or 5 AM. It’s painful. “Spring forward” can get you to a wake-up that’s 6 AM or later. Nobody should be waking before 6 AM, right?

Self-care has always been hugely important to me and is the reason I started my sleep training business. How can you take care of everyone around you if you aren’t taking care of yourself? It’s the best thing you can do for yourself, your family and your work life. Believe me, your kids will be grateful for the extra patience and connection they get when YOUR bucket is filled up.

When I have a discovery call with tired parents to discuss their baby’s sleep, short naps are the most common struggles they mention.  They tell me they spend 30 minutes trying to get their baby to fall asleep only to have them wake up 30 minutes later. If you have a baby that naps 4 times a day, putting them down could take up  hours of your day. Rough!

Toddlers and preschoolers (and big kids) are master negotiators and have the best stalling tactics. They need an extra trip to the potty, another hug from big brother, a snack, or a sip of water, they are scared.  This list goes on and on. They can turn a 30-minute bedtime routine into an hour and a half easily. How do they do it?
