Sleep and the City: Baby & Toddler Sleep Consulting

Modern pediatric sleep training and consulting, focusing on children ages 0-5 years. 10+ years in the game, over 5,000+ families helped worldwide.

Assisting families with their sleep challenges. Specializing in children ages 0-5 years old. Most children are able to sleep through the night by 6 months- if they are taught the necessary skills to put themselves back to sleep- yes, you can once again stay in your bed all night as well! The infant consultation tackles everything from poor napping to frequent night wakings, early rising before 6am

, night weaning to unwanted co-sleeping, even soothing your child without being rocked/walked to sleep. We also cover crib/room transitions, age-appropriate schedules & night time routines, those dreaded sleep regressions, Wonder Weeks, nightmares/night terrors, bedtime battles, and getting your baby to stay in their room (and crib!) all night. We believe that positive reinforcement, logical consequences and various sleep coaching methods and techniques will help your infant learn to love their environment AND sleep! Sleep and the City was founded by Lauren after completing her Infant & Child Sleep Consulting course and helping numerous family members and friends with their baby, infant and toddler's sleep issues. She is trained in numerous child sleep training methods (Sears Attachment, Ferber, No-Cry, Ferber, Extinction, Happiest Baby, etc), cognitive behavioral sleep therapy for adults and views every client as an individual case.

WHEN DO BABY NIGHT WAKINGS STOP: Most doctors will agree that babies over 6-months are able to connect their own sleep cycles, and even drop the majority (if not all!) of their night feeds. However, many babies continue to wake up frequently during the night.

❓Aren’t night wakings normal? One thing to understand is that humans by nature, no matter what age, wake briefly several times throughout the night. The issue isn’t the actual waking, but rather with a baby that is unable to put themselves (or self-soothe) back to sleep. Babies that aren’t able to do this will alert their parents by crying out, needing something from their parent in order to fall back asleep. In short: These babes likely have developed sleep crutch(es) over the past few weeks/months, thus aren’t able to self-soothe.

❓What’s a sleep crutch? Most common examples are feeding to sleep, rocking to sleep, or lying next to/on a parent in order to fall asleep, and stay asleep.

👉🏼But there is plenty you can do to help your baby:

✨Begin Eat-Play-Sleep routines, and have a schedule
✨Establish a consistent bedtime routine
✨Put your baby down still awake, in his/her own area
✨Talk w/your doctor about how many feeds baby does or doesn’t need at night after 6 months and adjust
✨Choose a gradual, supportive and flexible method to sleep training (the Wink-a-Sleep does this!)

👉🏼👉🏼Find my Wink-a-Sleep method inside the baby sleep DIY guide, see it in my stories today or bio 🔗 !

Where are all my 9-15 month old babies?! SAVE this post now for later!

👉🏼Here’s a glance at your napping goals for this age:

💘Two naps per day, with at least one lasting at 90 minutes
💘3-3.5 hour wake windows; babies will sometimes be able to go a bit longer if already sleeping through the night
💘Naps should be completely independent from parent, in the same place where baby sleeps at night for the best results
💘Baby is able to self-soothe
💘Falling asleep for naps should take 5-20 minutes max

Not sure what your wake windows should be for your baby? I’ve got all the DIY sleep guides you’ll ever need, WITH wake window recommendations in my profile, or Dm me for a IG Mama (discount!!) link on my sleep classes while you’re there ✨✨

BABY SLEEP + FIREWORKS 💥 Tips today for helping your baby sleep through the 4th tonight!

🇺🇸 Make sure you SAVE this for tonight, or share with an anxious Mom friend!

❤️TIPS FOR THE 4th to help your baby sleep through fireworks late at night:

🤍 White Noise- if you don’t have a white noise machine, get one now. Muffle the sounds outside is key to keeping baby snoozing. Try two machines tonight, or turn the volume slightly up. A box fan works great too!

💙 Deep Sleep: Aim to have baby asleep BEFORE your neighborhood fireworks begin, timing it so baby is in a deep stage of sleep. Deep stages of sleep occur in between sleep cycles, which repeat every 1.5 hours (or every 3 for older kids).

❤️ Keep bedtime consistent as possible

🤍Don’t skip naps for social outings (can cause or INCREASE night wakings)

💙 Settle baby from side of crib if awaken by loud bangs

💥And lastly, don’t panic! I’m here to help if baby continues to wakeup at night with no end in sight! Shoot me a DM to chat! Happy 4th everyone! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

BABY WAKE WINDOWS: (What Google and other sleep accounts don’t tell you!) *SAVE* this post now!

✨Hi I’m Lauren, owner of SATC, and after nearly 10 years in the infant sleep biz, I’ve nearly perfected the art of baby wake windows— I’m glad you’re here!

Wake windows are super dependent on nap lengths and night sleep; meaning they can vary slightly from one child to the next. Not sure what wake window you should be using? Drop your baby’s age below!

SLEEP PROPS: Also known as referred to as sleep “crutches” or “association”, is anything that a 3+ month old baby or toddler relies CONSTANTLY on in order to fall completely to sleep.

↪️Examples: Rocking, feeding, singing, bouncing and pacifiers are often referred to as sleep crutches if used repeatedly at night or as means to get a longer nap.

🗣️It’s important to note that the following things are super useful when it comes to successful baby sleep and not commonly crutches or props:

✨White noise
✨ Sleep sacks or swaddling
✨ Babywearing
✨ Sound machines
✨ Dark rooms for babies
✨ Nightlights for toddlers
✨ Dreamfeeds

👉🏼👉🏼 If you’re worried that one of the baby sleep props above may be keeping your little one from taking longer naps, or sleeping more than 8+ hours straight at night (after 8 weeks old), DM me to chat or share below in the comments— and make sure to check back here tomorrow when we discuss more about what can be done to reverse or change them! ⚡️
