Important notice

The content is informational and educational. It is not a diagnosis, a prescription or a treatment, and it does not replace the advice of your paediatrician or another health professional.

If you suspect a medical problem — apnoea, reflux, growth, a cry that doesn’t seem right — speak to your paediatrician first. Then come back, if you want to.

The guidance is general and grounded in the sleep and attachment literature. I do not know your child: you decide what to apply and when to stop.

No extinction methods are taught, and nothing here involves leaving a baby to cry alone.

Sleep changes for a thousand reasons. Nothing here guarantees your child will sleep a certain way by a certain date, and anyone promising that is selling you something.
