The Responsive Family Sleep Podcast

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting sleep information; frustrated by sleep advice that felt wrong; or searched for a truly gentle, responsive alternative to sleep training, then you are in the right place. In each episode I’ll be answering your most pressing baby and toddler sleep questions, dispelling common sleep myths, deepening your understanding of biologically normal sleep, and encouraging you to trust your intuition. And because sleep is rarely just about sleep, you may just find some responsive parenting, lactation, or self-care tips sprinkled in along the way.

I’m your host, Kim Hawley, MA, MPH, IBCLC Holistic Sleep Coach, Lactation Consultant, Peaceful Parenting Educator, and mom. My specialty is truly holistic, developmental, attachment focused sleep support – no hidden sleep training here!

I love floor beds! They are an under utilized tool in supporting sleep with littles.

In this episode, I’m sharing some basics on floor beds. I cover what is a floor bed; what safety factors do you need to consider; and when are floor beds most helpful. I hope this gives you another sleep set up option to consider on your sleep journey.
