Applied Infant and Toddler Sleep: Major Transitions, Travel, and the Long Arc

Applied sleep practice addresses major transitions, travel, and the long arc of sleep across the early years. This applied course teaches integrated reasoning through case-based modules. By the end of this course you will be able to handle major transitions, support sleep during travel, adapt approaches across siblings and developmental shifts, and support the long arc into early childhood sleep. What you will learn: - Approaches to major transitions including moving from crib to bed and weaning nighttime feeds - Approaches to sleep during travel including time zones and unfamiliar settings - Approaches to siblings of different ages including shared rooms - Approaches to developmental shifts including teething and language milestones - Approaches to handling concerns including persistent night waking or daytime sleep loss - Approaches to coordinating with pediatric care for sleep concerns - Approaches to the transition into preschool and school-age sleep The course is structured around six applied modules. Each produces a written artifact: a transitions plan, a travel sleep plan, a siblings plan, a developmental shifts framework, a concerns response, and a long-arc plan. This course is written for parents thinking across the long arc of children's sleep. The course is informational and does not substitute for pediatric medical care. By the end you will have moved from night-by-night reactivity to a sustained approach.
