Description
Have a new baby and feel like you’re drowning?
Due a baby and wanting to get ahead of the game before your baby arrives?
This is a one-off guidance for parents to download.
In the past I offered a 60-minute call to expectant parents, or families with a new baby to run through all my tips and tricks for navigating life with a new-born from my knowledge and experience as a sleep coach, midwife and parent.
This 40-page survival guide download includes all that previous value I included in an hours new-born sleep education call, plus extra bonuses. You can read in your own time, in bite-sized bits of info as and when you are free.
To clarify, you CANNOT sleep train a newborn, and why would you want to? … but you can learn all about them, their sleep, feeds and day-to-day advice that can make this challenging time more manageable and enjoyable. It’s the guide I wish I’d had when I was fumbling my way through this transition.
My hope is you find it valuable and it positively impacts your parenting journey, just like this family:
“Thank you for sending that through! It is invaluable! Our baby is due in 5 weeks. We hope to set good habits before we contact you for sleep training in the future. We want this baby to sleep as well as ***** because we think it has really contributed to her development and lovely temperament.” Fiona
