Welcome Thrivers, to the first episode of Thriving Parent-ing! I’m so glad you’re here!
Today I am talking about self-soothing, why I believe that having it as your baby’s ultimate sleep goal is actually your parenting nemesis, and what to focus on instead.
By reframing this focus point, you can shift your perspective and feel more secure and confident in your parenting.
I’ll be breaking down what self-soothing and self-regulation are, the ages at which these tend to develop (whilst remembering that all our babies are unique!) and I’ll be talking about the small steps and building blocks you can be shifting your focus to instead.
It's these 1-2% changes you can start implementing right now that will ultimately make the biggest difference, because they’ll help to foster trust, safety and confidence around sleep.
By taking the pressure off yourself and your parenting, you can sit in the more comfortable place of developing your confidence and skills, rather than focusing on that end goal. So if you’ve been feeling like you’re failing, or like your goal of getting your baby to self-soothe is out of reach, this is the episode for you.
