Resting Bubs- Paediatric Sleep Consultant

Co-regulation is not only about managing a child’s immediate anxiety; it's also about teaching them lifelong skills in emotional regulation. By practising these techniques, parents and caregivers can provide a supportive environment that helps young children navigate their anxieties, especially at bedtime, leading to more peaceful nights and a stronger emotional foundation.

✨️This is an example of how different a sleep schedule can look from baby to baby. When you work 1:1 with me, i create a personalised holistic sleep schedule, which takes into account
various factors that influence sleep.

It's important to remember that there is no one size fits all when it comes to a baby's sleep. Some babies can, in fact, sleep through the night by 4months where as some babies may still need a feed in the middle of the night at 8 months.

Every baby has different sleep needs , and even twins can have a different sleep schedule!

These are 5 simple ways to help your baby or toddler through sickness.🤍

Every child is different when they're sick ,some might require more comfort while others are content to play or be on their own. This comes down to temperament.

Later this week, I'll be talking more about how sleep is impacted by sickness, and what you can do to support your childs sleep needs.

Here are three tips to encourage more sleep around naps and bedtime when your child is sick:

✨️ Extend Nap Times:
When your child is unwell, their body needs extra rest to aid in the healing process. Encourage longer naps by creating a calm and comfortable sleep environment. Dim the lights, use white noise, and ensure the room temperature is conducive to sleep. If your child typically takes shorter naps, try gently extending their naptime by 15 minutes increments to allow for more restorative sleep.

✨️Maintain a consistent nap and bedtime routine:
During sickness, it's important to stick to a consistent routine to provide a sense of predictability and stability for your child. Consistency helps regulate their internal body clock and promotes better sleep. This routine can help them feel more secure and settle into sleep more easily.

✨️ Bring Bedtime Earlier:
Illness can leave children feeling more tired and in need of extra sleep. Adjusting their bedtime earlier allows them to get the rest they require to recover. Start the bedtime routine a bit earlier than usual, allowing for additional winding-down time and relaxation.

✨️Night wakings: These are bound to happen and you should respond with comfort and support. Pain,discomfort and genuine hunger can cause more frequent wakings at night.

Don't let sleepless nights become your new normal. Take a step towards reclaiming your sleep and enjoying a well-rested family life.

Understanding and implementing age appropriate awake windows is a game changer when it comes to baby and toddler sleep.

Keep an eye out for my next post as I will be sharing what the age appropriate awake windows are and how to find the right one for your child.

A consistent bedtime routine is the foundation for a great sleep.  The predictability of a bedtime routine gives your child a sense of security by knowing what step is next and what is expected of them. 

It is never too early to introduce a bedtime routine even though it looks completely different for a newborn compared to a toddler,  the fundamental idea is that a familiar pattern brings a sense of relief and comfort.
