When should you stop swaddling?

Generally on my approach if it’s working for you all is well. And you don’t need to stop anything unless you want to! However, swaddling is an exception due to sleep safety. Because whilst I’m passionate about doing what works for you. I’m also very passionate about safer sleep.

Biological best

My whole approach is about supporting your Small to sleep at their biological best.

It’s not about pushing them to join the elusive ‘sleep through crew’ and sleep through the night. Although this can happen if they’re developmentally and biologically ready to do so.

Screens, sleep and sensible advice

I have a sensible and an “everything in moderation” approach to most things in life. Tech can be necessary, useful AND educational; however like most things over indulging in them can cause an impact elsewhere. As an infant sleep consultant I have experienced numerous times how screen usage can impact infant sleep.
