Your amazing sleeper becomes a toddler and suddenly needs you all the time at bedtime or during the night. Is something wrong? How do we get them back to independent sleep? I speak with Amna, a mom from the PDT community about her 26 months old daughter and separation anxiety she’s having at bedtime.

We discuss:

• Why daytime connection and boundaries matter for bedtime
• How to approach their disapproval with boundaries
• Strategies to provide some control for your toddler while you maintain boundaries

Make sure to listen to the wrap-up as I share principles that can apply to many various parenting scenarios and for this case—overcoming advancing food anxiety
