You can’t Google the words “baby sleep” without being inundated with a barrage of sleep training ads and methods, all claiming to do it gentlest, fastest, and best. But, what does the science and the research actually show about how effective and healthy sleep training is for our infants and young children?

I’m am thrilled to have neuroscientist, doula and the author of the book The Nurture Revolution: Grow Your Baby’s Brain and Transform Their Mental Health through the Art of Nurtured Parenting Dr. Greer Kirshenbaum back on the podcast to talk about the science of sleep!

We’re not going to tell you what you should or shouldn’t do, but instead our goal is to arm you with all the information you need so that you are able to make informed decisions about what is best for you and your unique family - with no shame, judgment, pressure, or fear!

There are many swaddle transition products on the market, but in honor of safe sleep month, I am discussing today the Baby Merlin Magic Sleep Suit and the main reasons we love it for infants from 3 - 9 months old to support healthy and safe sleep. 

How do you balance naps that are not in a crib or bed, but can still be restorative in nature? In this episode, we cover the right way to manage the realities and demands of being parents but still having a life out and about and a child who sleeps well. As a sleep consultants, we coach parents on achieving their sleep goals, based on their normal.

• Free Discovery Call with a Sleep Coach on my team.
• A blog where I further dive into this with 2 child sleep coaches, Chris & Lauren Nosal, the “sleep forward family” out of St. Louis, MO, who manage 4 kids under 6 as busy working parents! 

In 2018, Tara tried to find a weighted blanket her six-month-old son could safely wear to help extend his 1.5-hour sleep windows. Shocked there was nothing available for this age group, she decided to create her own and the idea for Dreamland Baby was born. From that night, she launched a successful Kickstarter, an e-commerce store, made a deal with Lori Greiner on Shark Tank, and can now be found in Bloomingdales, Target, and Nordstrom, among many other retail stores. She shares with us how she got this company going and how her blankets are making a difference!

Vered is a musician, music therapist, founder of Baby in Tune, and mom of 3. She teaches parents how to use music to speak their baby’s language, get more sleep, and have more fun. When she had her first baby eleven years ago, she struggled with nursing issues, felt overwhelmed and utterly exhausted all the time. In a moment of frustration she pushed herself to sing to her baby. Through the immediate soothing that she and her baby BOTH felt, and the connection that developed between them, Baby in Tune was born. Vered uses her natural ability to write songs that give words to the experience of parents and babies, combined with her passion for blending music therapy techniques with concepts from psychology, to help thousands of parents feel like they know what they’re doing. 

When she is not leading classes or training instructors, Vered can be found lecturing at conferences such as Zero to three, and doing staff trainings at companies such as Sanctuary for Families. Her three award winning albums for families can be found on Spotify/Amazon/itunes. She lives in Brooklyn with her husband and three kids, who brought her back to music through motherhood.
