She teaches school-wide workshops, small group classes, and sleep support groups on healthy sleep hygiene, the science of sleep, safe sleep practices, positive sleep associations, how to get your baby on a loose schedule, the importance of a steady naptime/bedtime routine, tips to get your baby sleeping longer stretches, and more.
