This guide will walk you through every step to help get your partner or another secondary settler to settle your little to sleep.
You may just want a little support around naps, the occasional bedtime, or you'd like to work towards an equal split when it comes to settling. Whatever your goal, this guide has everything you need.
It’s extremely comprehensive which means you can pick and choose how much you wish to embark on, and move at a pace that works for your family.
Parental preference, or the struggles of settling being solely on one person, is one of the most common issues I come across on Instagram and in my 1:1 support. Therefore, I’m so excited to have an accessible and immediately downloadable guide ready for you all.
