If there is one thing that I find most challenging as a parent, it is meal times! Even as a nutritionist who loves to cook, I am not exempt from the frustration of trying to nourish little ones.
For many parents, the mental health of their children is a clear priority. The impact of these conditions left untreated is huge.
How can we do our best to capitalise on the preschool years to avoid future mental health problems in our children? One way is to foster their self-esteem from birth which forms a protective barrier, reducing the impact of mental illness.
Children and sleep can be a challenge for many parents, which feels never-ending. Inconsistent sleep is normal for babies and toddlers as they develop.
So naturally, anything we can do to support restorative sleep for our little ones is worth giving a try.
Sleep challenges in children can literally be a nightmare (excuse the pun!) for parents. Handling the endless requests to quench that sudden thirst that seems to emerge just as you’ve left their bedroom each night, or even managing the behaviors in the lead up to bedtime – is exhausting for parents. However, this is a battle worth pursuing. Sleep has a significant impact on a child’s development and behavior.
As a new parent, trying to get your little one to sleep in the bassinet can be daunting when all they want to do is sleep on you. We know that babies wanting to sleep on or near us is biologically normal and helps with brain development. During the day, we can enjoy those newborn snuggles (because we know they go way too fast!!), but it can be frustrating and dangerous at night if you're dozing off while holding your baby.
We sat down with our friend Dr Golly to chat about preparing a baby for nap time.
Dr Golly (Dr Daniel Golshevsky) is a Melbourne-based pediatrician and father of three. Specializing in unsettled babies and poor sleep, Dr Golly developed his program through work with thousands of babies over a decade of practice. With a focus on empowering parents and protecting mothers, Dr Golly turns up the volume of that innate parental instinct to maximize parents' understanding of their baby's cues and bring everyone closer to a full night's sleep.
