Description

On today’s episode, I’m joined by professional infant and toddler sleep consultant, Erin Junker, founder of The Happy Sleep Company, to discuss strategies for improving sleep for both children and adults.


We go into depth on: 

  • The importance of establishing healthy sleep routines & environments

  • How developmental changes can impact sleep patterns & lead to sleep regressions

  • How to practically start improving sleep in children at any age quickly

  • Why consistency with habits, routines, and sleep coaching yields faster results

  • Why each child and adult has unique sleep needs


We’ve discussed on this podcast the importance of sleep to our overall well being as well as our ability to stay consistent with our fitness and nutrition goals. Many parents, especially with young children, struggle to get consistent quality sleep due to interruptions from their children. So, we brought in an expert to give us an understanding of how to improve that. Erin gives tangible, tactical, and immediate strategies for improving sleep at any age and helps us to determine what they next steps could be for each child.
