Episode notes
What exactly IS separation anxiety and how does it impact sleep and bedtime for little ones?
I speak to clinical psychologist Dr MDC about what it means throughout infancy and childhood, how we can handle it and why separation is actually a good thing for parent and child.
If bedtime has become a battle, or you are anxious about how childcare may impact your family, this episode covers some strategies to boost connectedness and how to put some boundaries in place to help you feel less touched-out and overwhelmed by the demands of parenthood.
We also discuss the benefits of crying and separating within a responsive, nurturing adult and with age appropriate boundaries.
