There are a few moments every parent dreads in the first few years of life - and a 2 year old jumping out of the crib has got to be top 3. So....what do you do?! Today I'm sharing my tips - how to prevent it from happening, what to do if it happens once or twice to stop it from happening again, and how to make the transition successfully to a bed if all else fails.

The Con of the "4 Month Sleep Regression"
I know, I know. Stay with me here. I'm NOT saying there is no chance your baby won't have any sleep struggles at 4 months. But I AM absolutely saying that there is a very, very good chance they won't....and if they do struggle, A) it might not happen when they're 4 months old and B) there are many things you can do proactively to make it as painless as possible (including sleep training them before you even get to 4 months). In today's episode, I'll explain exactly why!Below are the two previous episodes I mentioned today, check them out!The Truth About "Gentle Sleep Training" and "Cry It Out"Sleep Mythbusting: Feeding On Demand & Night WeaningLoved this episode?

You Can't MAKE Your Baby or Toddler Sleep (Here's What You Can Do Instead)
"She woke up for 15 minutes during her nap...WHY? How can I make her sleep?" "He played for 20 minutes with his trucks after bedtime, how can I make him sleep instead?" These are total normal questions I get from clients, and here is what I tell them, and I want you to know: You can't. You cannot control your child's eyelids closing and falling asleep. Moreso, I don't want you to, and I don't care at all if either of the above scenarios occur. These are totally normal things!In today's episode, I want to help you release the urge to try and make your baby or toddler the perfect sleeper. No one is. Instead? My goal through the process for any client (and anyone listening to this!) is that your child is given the gift of knowing how to put themselves to sleep (and back to sleep when they wake!) and you, as the parent, have the gift of being able to release. Release the urge to feel that you should or even can control their exact sleep stats (leave me alone, Nanit!) and instead have the confidence that you A) are offering your child sleep at times that are appropriate B) trusting your child has the skills and will do with that time what they want and C) you have the tools to know when to make a change or seek help if something changes that is really abnormal.

Melatonin + Kids: When (And When Not) To Use It, And What To Do Instead
Guilty of having tried melatonin to get a restless kid to sleep? You're very much not alone. Today I'm going to do a bit of a deep dive into melatonin use in kids - what melatonin really is, what data supports using it for children, when NOT to use it for children (spoiler - in the vast majority of kids, we don't want to), and why we want to avoid it. Most of all, I'll share some tactical things you can think about to help your child sleep without using any medications, and what to do if none of them seem to work!Loved this episode?
