Helpline: Dropping day naps, transitioning to a big bed, bed fear and more

When you’re raising babies and small humans you start to understand it’s the little things that count. Like day naps, and the hours between awake times through the night or whether a dummy will help or hinder your baby get more sleep.

When the little things start adding up it might be time to speak to an expert. That’s where Helpline is here to guide you through to a better, calmer and hopefully more sleep-filled night. Today our expert is Hannah Wallace, baby sleep consultant from The Parent School. 

On this episode of Helpline she helps with the following challenges:

• A two-and-a-half-year-old who will only sleep in the car since dropping bottles before bed
• A 10-month-old waking every hour through the night
• A four-month-old waking over five times a night
• A two-year-old-and-two-months child that is afraid of her bed
• A 13-month-old waking up through the night
• When to introduce an eight-week-old baby to a sleep routine
• A 15-month-old transitioning to one nap and waking super early
• A 10-month-old resisting day sleeps
