About this Podcast Episode

On this episode, Angela and Kristin dive into the foundations of sleep and bedtime struggles, not just listing out strategies you can search on the internet. They provide guidance on assessing the real problem parents are trying to solve, setting up an environment conducive to better sleep routines, and truly committing to making the changes that lead to fewer nighttime struggles. They remind parents that as the adults, we have incredible influence on the direction of our kids’ bedtime and sleep habits.
