Hey, check out my fundamental principles
- The most effective sleep training method for both the family and child is a holistic approach.
- It is crucial to encourage a child's ability to self-soothe.
- Allowing a child to "cry it out" without parental intervention is not an effective sleep training method.
- A process that involves healthy parental presence and gradual exit is recommended.
- A healthy mind, positive motivation, and a healthy diet are essential.

Gimme Sleep-Just for Sleep
Sleep training requires commitment,
just like any other type of training You can't afford to waste time trying different methods in the middle of the night.
If you want to see results quickly, hiring a personal trainer is more effective than watching tutorials on YouTube.
Similarly, sleep training requires structure, accountability, and education to see immediate results.
With commitment and consistency, sleep training can be successful at any age. Let's work together to get sleep-fit!
