In this coaching call with Liz, we talk about what to do when kids have trouble falling and staying asleep.

Liz is the mom of a four year old boy and a one year old girl. She asked for some support because her four year old was having a lot of trouble staying asleep by himself.

We came up with some ideas to help her and the rest of her family get more sleep, as well as some strategies to help him with his fears around going to sleep.

We go into:

• [5:00] Why exhaustion and burnout is normal with little kids
• [8:30] Current bedtime routine since weaning off nursing
• [12:55] How Liz currently navigates her son waking up in the middle of the night
• [16:10] How to address the ‘worry brain’ with your kids
• [22:10] Strategies to help kids fall and stay asleep
• [31:40] Check in after a few months
