Episode 6 – Sensory Processing & Sleep: Helping Kids Regulate and Rest Well Welcome back to the Pediatric Playbook! This week, I’m joined by a fellow pediatric occupational therapist, Courtney English, as we explore the connection between sensory processing and sleep, parenting, potty training, and more. Courtney brings her expertise in sensory regulation to help us understand why some kids struggle with winding down, how sensory challenges impact different areas of your child's routines, and what we can do to support better rest for our little ones. We’ll break down the fundamentals of sensory processing, discuss common bedtime struggles, and share practical, research-backed strategies to help children relax and regulate.
