Updated Sleep Guidelines for Children by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine

Did you know Children have the ability to have PERFECT SLEEP?! 
The PROBLEM is that most children are NOT BORN with the skills needed to sleep well independently.

​It’s our job as parents to teach them how to achieve perfect sleep.  

Are your children getting enough sleep?

Check out the new sleep guidelines for children developed
by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. These new guidelines are also supported by the American Academy
of  Pediatrics.  

Today’s society is very focused on what we eat as the answer to a healthier family! While this is extremely important, our sleep needs are equally
​as important and we need to start honouring them!
“When kids meet the adequate number of sleep hours for their age on a regular basis, they’re likely to see benefits including better behaviour, attention span, learning, memory, emotional regulation, and overall quality of life, said consensus paper author Dr. Lee Brooks, an attending pulmonologist at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia…. Not getting enough sleep is linked with more injuries, hypertension, obesity, diabetes, and depression, among other health problems…
Sleep matters: deprivation and tiredness affect schoolwork, attention, mood, interactions, unhealthy weight risk and lifelong health habits.”
Healthy sleep habits is one of the greatest gifts that you can give your children.
It’s a gift that will carry over into all aspects of their life! 
 Happy Sleeping!! ​Erin Neri

About the Author

​I am the mother of two amazing little boys who did not come pre-programmed with the skills to sleep well independently. I knows how hard it is to function on little to no sleep, I understands how this impacts your ability to be the best version of the mom that you want to be. This is what led me to become a Certified Sleep Consultant and the founder of To The Moon and Back Sleep Consulting.  I am also a member of the International Association of Professional Sleep Consultants. I have a background in Psycology and have worked with families and young children in many different settings for over 19 years.  One of the best parts of my job is seeing the impact that TEACHING their little moon bugs healthy/independent sleep skills has on the momma's!!
