During my discussions with parents, I often hear t

During my discussions with parents, I often hear them say their little one is a “high-needs (HN)” baby. They've been told or read that the sleep and routine challanges they are experiencing are simply due to the "high needs" temperament of their baby and there's not a lot they can do to change that.

Interestingly, I was told by our paediatrician that our middle boy, Harry, was a "high-needs" baby at the ripe old age of 12 weeks.

He was (and is not) a "high-needs" baby... he was simply exhausted.

Having a toddler who is scared of the dark and monsters is a really common scenario that I chat to parents about.

Watch this reel to find out the BEST way to approach a scared toddler.

If night-time for you and your older baby, toddler

If night-time for you and your older baby, toddler, child, tween or teen looks like being up and playing, cuddling, watching TV, moving around, and having snacks or even meals, your bodies aren’t getting the chance to work in the healthy way they were designed to, and your child needs your help to resolve this.

When your little one is waking frequently at night-time and unable to go back to sleep, there’s always a reason.

Sometimes it’s related to their basic needs, like if they’re hungry because they haven’t had enough calories during the day, or if they’re exhausted and in “overdrive” because they haven’t been getting enough total sleep recently.

And sometimes it’s related to HOW they fall asleep each time they go to bed, and whether or not those conditions are still the same when they rouse naturally during the night.

TIPS TO HELP WHEN INTRODUCING NEWBORN TO TODDLER

TIPS TO HELP WHEN INTRODUCING NEWBORN TO TODDLER

Having another baby can be such an special time for the whole family, but you might be worried about how your toddler is going to cope with having to share YOU with their newborn baby brother or sister.

There is a lot you can do to make this adjustment period straightforward and as smoothe possible.

Here are my TOP TIPS and make sure you like, save and share these with your mama and dad friends who may need it -

1) PREPARATION - In the lead up to baby number 2 arriving, involve your toddler as much as possible so they feel part of the journey. Talk to them, draw pictures and age appropriate read books about bringing home their sibbling, let them help set up the nursery and buy them their own dolly and set up dolly's nursery too. Doing all these things may help them understand the changes that are coming.

2) STICK TO ROUTINE - Before and after baby arrives, keep your toddlers daily routine going as normal. Toddlers love consistency and predictability. They will feel comfort in knowing that although there's a new baby taking up your time, their day (and night) is the same. If you need to enlist help from friends and family to make this happen, do it!

3) SLEEP SLEEP SLEEP - A well rested toddler WILL cope with the changes that come with bringing home their new sibling, an exhausted and overtired one WON'T. Keep bedtime and morning wake up the same and make sure they have their nap/s if they still need sleep during the day.

4) BE PATIENT - There may be some challanging behaviour and playing up as your toddler beings to realise their new baby brother or sister is here to stay. Try not to panic as it's very normal and all part of the process.

It's a common question I get asked all the time, especially throughout winter - "Steph - is it OK to let my little one sleep more when they are sick"?

ABSOLUTELY YES - it is more than OK, in fact, it's very important that your little one gets as much sleep as they can during and after they've been unwell.

Sleep helps the body fight illness and the more sleep we get after illness, the quicker we recover.

Find out more by watching this reel and share with those who might need it.
