Helpline: Newborn sleep patterns, day naps, toilet training and more

When your baby isn’t sleeping or your toddler won’t get in the car seat, where do you turn for advice? Sometimes a friend or sibling may have the answer, and sometimes you need expert help. Jo Ryan is a sleep consultant who has helped thousands of families with sleepless nights and defiant toddlers. Jo is also an expert at The Parent School.

On this episode of Helpline Jo helped families with the following challenges:

• A newborn who will only sleep on their mum
• A fourteen-month-old struggling with day naps
• A twenty-two-month-old waking really early
• A thirteen-month-old waking up every three hours during the night
• Two-and-a-half-year-old and fourteen-month-old brothers who are constantly fighting
• A six-week-old who won’t sleep longer than one hour
• Toilet training a nineteen-month-old
