The first four months
Absolutely nothing can prepare you for the newborn haze, caught between little sleep, late nights and early mornings, tending to your precious bundle’s every need. A new baby is an exciting and joyful time – but it can also be overwhelming and cause all kinds of stress and anxiety. Getting the right support and guidance is crucial to give you and your baby the best possible start in this journey together.
This fabulous guide to sleep in the first four months gently guides you so you know your baby even better and understand their cues to help you all feel more settled and ready for a peaceful rest.
What’s Included?
Using the skills I have learned as a Baby Sleep Consultant and as a Children’s Nurse and Early Childhood Professional for more than 18 years, this guide takes you through practical, proven techniques to help you normalise your baby’s sleep from day one. All the information provided is backed by research, providing calm, reassuring, guilt-free support to help empower your parenting journey.
Remember: every baby is different. Whether it’s your first or your fourth, you have to find out what works for them and how to meet their individual needs. I walk you through this process, holding your hand each step of the way.
