Sleep is one of the biggest stressors for new parents—but what if we’ve been looking at it all wrong?In this episode of Made for Birth, I’m joined by Laura, RN, founder of Strawberry Moon Sleep, to talk about a holistic approach to infant and child sleep. Instead of focusing on quick fixes or one-size-fits-all methods, we explore what sleep looks like through the lens of biology, development, regulation, and connection.Whether you’re navigating the newborn stage, wondering if your baby’s sleep is “normal,” or trying to support an older child who struggles with sleep, this conversation is full of practical insights that will help you better understand what’s happening beneath the surface.In this episode, we discuss:Why infant sleep is often misunderstoodWhat’s biologically normal for babies and young childrenCommon sleep myths that create unnecessary stress for parentsGentle, holistic ways to support healthy sleepHow a child’s development, nervous system, and environment influence sleepEncouragement for parents who feel exhausted or like they’re doing it “wrong”If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re missing something—or simply need reassurance that you’re not alone—this episode is for you.Connect with Laura: Instagram: @strawberrymoonsleep Website: https://strawberrymoonsleep.comConnect with Made for Birth: Website: https://made4birth.com Instagram: https://instagram.com/made4birthIf this episode encouraged you, be sure to subscribe, leave a review, and share it with another parent who could use a little more sleep—and a lot more confidence.Send me a text if you have episode request.
