Sleep like a baby?

Kids & Family #209, Parenting #81

Baby + toddler sleep consultant, mum and founder of Little Nest Sleep, Hannah is on a mission to debunk the myths and mistruths that are fed to exhausted parents who just want to get some decent rest.

Using a gentle, holistic approach to night-time parenting, the Sleep Like A Baby? podcast helps mums and dads navigate the nonsense of baby sleep without cry-it-out, or strict rules and routines.

Speaking to experts from the worlds of psychology, paediatric healthcare, midwifery, mental health and neuroscience, as well as normal parents, this podcast is all about empowering families with evidence for what works and why.

The best.

I always feel better about myself and my parenting choices after listening to this podcast. Hannah’s like the best friend we all want and need in our life. Down to earth, supportive, bright, knowledgeable, funny, loving, best accent ever. I send all my new mom friends her way.

Absolutely Amazing

Truthful, science-based, and so reassuring for new parents trying to raise their babies with intuition and love. Debunks sleep myths, talks about normal biological sleep for little ones, and provides strategies for parents. Hannah is brilliant and has so much incredible knowledge to share.

Interesting and reassuring!

It’s so nice to hear an honest account of baby and child sleep. Hannah makes me feel less alone for not wanting to let my baby cry it out. Lots of facts and reassurance for new mothers and interesting, thoughtful and thought provoking interviews!
