helping parents raise happy, healthy kids, one sleep at a time

Does your child resist going to bed, wake during the night or get up super early? Do they wake up groggy, despite sleeping for a long time? Do they snore, breathe noisily, or wake in a tangle of bedclothes? Has your child been diagnosed with ADHD, or do they have difficulty focusing? Are they a ball of energy, and just can't sit still? Do they get sick often? If you answered 'yes' to any of these questions, chances are, your child has a sleep problem. You are not alone. 25% of children have sleep problems, and these problems can start the pattern for a lifetime of health, behaviour and learning problems. On the flip side, when good sleep is the norm, kids can grow and thrive. Sleep-wrecked Kids will teach you about how to solve your child's sleep problems, including: Explaining what 'good sleep' actually means ; Sharing the raft of problems that can be caused by bad sleep ; Common red flags for sleep problems, so you can assess your child ; How you can optimise your child's routine and environment to improve their sleep ; Listing the range of medical practitioners and specialists who can help your child
