In this episode, we talk about the dangers of kids not getting enough sleep and what parents can do to help their children develop healthy sleep habits. Megan Copeland is a certified sleep consultant and the founder of SlumberFeed, a company she founded to help tired parents and kids figure out how to improve their sleep.
Sleep brings your child a wide range of physical and mental benefits. Lack of sleep has serious negative consequences for your overtired child including unhealthy weight gain, bad moods, accidents and bad judgement due to trouble regulating their emotions. Kids suffer from trouble in school, because memory development slows and makes it more difficult for kids to recall what they’ve learned. If your kids don’t sleep, you as parents don’t sleep - and there are consequences to this.
Megan is a mother of 2 toddlers. She has a Bachelor in Elementary Education, a Masters of Science in Nursing from Rush University. She is a Registered Nurse and a Professional Educator Certified School Nurse. She has spent more than a decade as a teacher, an ICU nurse, a School nurse, a certified sleep consultant and now an entrepreneur.
