According to your responses, you need to take my 'Fade Out' approach 🎉So what does that actually mean? Your little one is reliant on your help to get to sleep. Without you doing something to or for your little one, s/he is not able to settle to sleep.But that's okay, because it means you can now gently and gradually make moves to increase their confidence with settling and decrease your role in it. My 'Fade Out' approach is ideal for you because your little one is not yet ready to settle to sleep entirely without your support."The best way to make children good is to make them happy." — Oscar Wilde3 Tips to Help You & Your Little One Sleep1.

  Your custom sleep plan is... Regulated Response

  Image Source

  Hooray, friend! By completing this quiz, you've shown your commitment to better understanding your child and their unique personality as well as how your parenting strategy plays a part in crafting the ideal sleep plan. According to your responses, you need to take my 'Regulated Response' approach 🎉So what does that actually mean? Your little one is smart and very alert which means your efforts to comfort him/her may sometimes actually create more stimulation and agitation. Alert little ones usually need a bit more space to self regulate while still knowing that you are close by and will always respond to their needs.This is great, because it means you can now respond to your little one in a way that supports his/her personality traits and help him/her to develop self regulatory skills in a way that doesn't over stimulate or agitate but rather encourages confidence and secure attachment as they recognise that they can count on you to consistently respond in a certain way."The best way to make children good is to make them happy." — Oscar Wilde3 Tips to Help You & Your Little One Sleep1.
