In this episode, Katie and Kim discuss some of their best practices for getting children with special needs to sleep including tips for bedtime routines and some of the best products that can be helpful in the sleep training process. They cover quite a few topics and answer these questions:
Our favorite quotes from today’s episode are “any small movement counts as movement towards teaching your kid to sleep. It doesn’t have to be some large, grandeious act.” and “sleep is a skill that can be taught and learned, and just because you have a certain diagnosis in your family, that doesn’t mean that you’ll never sleep again.”
