Welcome back to The Motherhood Kit, where Yamel is discussing the topic of toddler sleep challenges. Once the new-born phase is over, it can sometimes seem like you’re just starting to get into a good sleep rhythm, when issues with your toddler’s sleep then come out of nowhere!
Today Yamel is joined by Jayne Havens, a certified sleep consultant who runs her own practice, Snooze Fest. Jayne is a leader in the industry and trains, mentors and certifies others to do this work too.
In this episode, Yamel and Jayne discuss tips on transitioning your child from a crib to a toddler bed (and why you may want to delay this), how to regain control over the sleep situation in your home, gentle parenting and how this applies to sleep, how to create a calming bedtime routine, and the power of consistency when tackling toddler sleep issues.

In this episode, Yamel and Jayne discuss:
● What is happening for toddlers around this age and how these factors affect sleep, including the underlying fact that they may not have ever learnt how to sleep, and the role that other life events that often happen around this time can play, for example by increasing separation anxiety.
● Transitioning your child from a crib to a bed, and Jayne’s advice to keep children in their cribs for as long as possible! Plus, the importance of communicating to your child the rules and boundaries regarding transitioning to a bed when the time comes.
● The power struggles that can arise between parents and their children around sleep, and the importance of retaining control in this area, and dealing with it with confidence and consistency.
● Strategies to help create a calming bedtime routine for your toddlers, such as good communication, setting expectations, role-playing sleep time, and the importance of shifting your mindset with regard to your toddler's sleep.
