Low sleep needs with Paula Morales McDowell

Sleep like a baby?

Is your baby sleeping less than their peers? Are they cat-nappers with late bedtimes but... actually thriving? You might be surprised to learn that this is actually A Thing! The idea that all babies need long naps and 12hrs overnight is totally outdated and not backed by science. But if you have a low sleep needs kid, you might be struggling to find more information about this.I spoke to fellow sleep consultant Paula Morales McDowell about how she discovered her own son had low sleep needs and how they made this work for their family.

• Are babies harmed by having less sleep? Will they develop poorly?
• How can you handle judgement from others who think babies and toddlers should have more sleep?
• What are the benefits of parenting a low sleep needs child?
