Optimizing Children's Sleep and Celebrations

Dr Billy Garvey is back! We had Billy on KICBUMP earlier in the year to talk about all things sleep and this week he is back to answer all your questions. Like: I have a toddler and I’m pregnant with my second. Will I ever sleep again? What does sugar and screen time do to a kids’ sleep? What if my kid only ever catnaps? How do I transition from a crib to a toddler bed? Using melatonin to sleep + lots more.

In case you’ve missed our previous episodes with Billy, he is a developmental paediatrician and senior specialist at one of Australia’s largest tertiary paediatric hospitals with over 20 years experience working with families and children, and is the father of a three-year-old and one-year-old.
