'I’m a sleep expert and here's four steps to getting your kids to sleep through'
Dani's biggest piece of advice - work out your child's 'wake windows' and let them nap if they need it.
“When I had my newborn, I thought he could work with three hours. He was still getting loads of sleep, so why couldn’t he stay awake for three hours?“So at about six months, a baby’s wake window is anywhere between an hour and two hours.“If they have the appropriate wake time, they are so much more well-rested and capable for their next nap.
“So I’d love to tell you that it isn’t the Holy Grail, but it is and working with your little one on confidence and independence to put themselves to sleep at night is really the biggest change that most parents can make.”“I say this to parents all the time - you don’t want to not offer your child comfort.“So I always have a lovely bedtime routine…but when they go into their crib, you might just offer them a little bit of support in there, rather than doing it in your arms.
“You’ll have the confidence to unlatch or take the bottle away just before they’re dozing off because you know they’ve had most of their feed already.
