• Episode 81: Toddler Sleep During Big Life Changes

  In this episode of Brand New Little People, Dr Fallon & Dr Laura (PhDs, Sleep Practitioners) discuss how you can help your toddler adjust to big life changes, with a specific focus on protecting their sleep. Do toddlers who sleep through the night have interrupted sleep after a new baby arrives? What about moving house with a toddler – how do I avoid hiccups with their sleep during such a big change? My toddler has never fallen asleep without me there to settle them and now they’re starting childcare – how can I prepare them for this? These are just some of the topics we’ve been asked to address on the podcast. And they all speak to a common theme – toddlers. We LOVE toddlers – they’re curious little scientists, trying to work out how the world works and when their world suddenly shifts, they can find it really tough. ☕️ Love our work?

• Episode 80: The Perfect Nap

  In our sleep clinic it’s common to hear parents say they’re worried about their baby or toddler’s naps. And we completely understand why. Everyone has a different opinion on how long naps should be and it gets tangled up in a lot of emotion. The reality is, the perfect nap for your child might be entirely different from the perfect nap for another, and it might even change day to day. The best nap is the one that leaves your baby or toddler refreshed and ready to go – whether it’s a 10 minute powernap or a 3 hour mega nap. In this episode Dr Fallon & Dr Laura (PhDs, Sleep Practitioners) unpick what science says about naps, removing the guilt and empowering you to feel confident in your baby or toddlers daily rhythm. ☕️ Love our work?

• Episode 79: Sleep & Attachment

  Some parents believe bed sharing and holding their child for their naps, will create more secure attachment than if their child sleeps in a cot or bed. But actually, where your child sleeps has very little bearing on their attachment style. Secure attachment is built through warm and responsive interactions when your child is awake, not during their sleep. Sharing your bed with your child might work well for you, but if you prefer your child sleeps in their cot or bed then you can feel confident that this won’t negatively impact attachment. In this episode Dr Fallon & Dr Laura (PhDs, Sleep Practitioners) unpack the truth about sleep & attachment, so you can ditch the guilt and make decisions that work for you and your family. ☕️ Love our work?
