Independent sleep isn’t inherently something young children can do, and yet it is one of the most common goals parents have for their baby or toddler. That tension between expectation and capability can lead to a lot of stress and frustration. In this episode I’m digging into what it means to work towards independent sleep.

I discuss how independent sleep goals can look different from family to family. I contextualize independent sleep within the developmental and biological norms and explain just how much variation there is in children’s capabilities. I hope this episode helps you to see the big picture when it comes to independent sleep and feel confident in your own child’s best path and timeline.
