This is the “Scariest” week of the year for parents - Daylight Saving Time- Falling Back! It’s like we spend so much energy and time instilling a healthy sleep foundation for our little ones and when you finally think you have figured it out, BAM!—a change occurs.

I remember in my 20’s, I LOVED this time. I mean who wouldn’t want to get an extra hour of sleep?

Now life is different. This time change not only guarantees that it will be dark when I head into the office and at times when I wake up in the morning, ( super depressing), but it also means that my kids will be getting up an hour earlier ( cue in the scary body shivers).

Even though, this week we are celebrating not only Halloween ( my fave holiday), but also Daylight Saving Time. Let’s prepare together for both events!

What is the 1 tip that will either help you successfully sleep train or completely fail?  In this episode, we’ll talk about a tiny little tweak in your language that has this intense power in teaching you how successful this sleep training process will be for you. When you hear what I'm going to say in today's episode, I'm sure at some point in your life you said it. 

Now is the time to be aware of it and change it. 

If you want to get more than just a wink of sleep without either you and your little one crying it out, let's connect.
