With holiday season among us, I want to take a moment to step away from sleep focused topics and advocate for all children.

It's your child's decision IF they want to show affection and HOW they choose to show it.

Manipulating a child into situations they're uncomfortable with disrespects their right to bodily autonomy.

❌"Oh come on. Go sit on Santa's lap."
❌"Grandmas going to think you don't love her if she doesn't get a kiss."
❌"You won't get your presents if you don't hug your uncle."

Ask for their consent and respect their choice.

✔️"Would you like a hug?"
✔️"Are you interested in sitting with Santa?"
✔️"Do you want to high five grandpa?"

If they aren't interested, calmly move on. There should be no shame associated with deciding what's right for them.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Learning new skills is challenging. It can take time. There are ups and downs.

Keep your head up and stay positive along the way.

👏🏼 Maybe baby only woke once last night compared to last weeks 3-4 night wakings.

👏🏼 Maybe your little one fell asleep after 20 minutes instead of 40 minutes.

👏🏼 Maybe your toddler napped for the first time this week.

These are all amazing and huge steps toward mastering sleep. These accomplishments should be celebrated!
