Go from second-guessing every nap and night waking to confident, calm parenting with a clear plan for your baby's first 4 months. Â
Â
In your 90-minute session with Dr. Susie, you’ll receive:
- Expert guidance on night wakings, wake windows, fussiness, feeding, gas, routines, and development, so you can better understand what’s normal, what your baby may need, and how to respond with more confidence
 - Continued access to the recorded session, so you never have to rely on memory or guesswork and can revisit the guidance anytime you need reassurance, clarity, or a refresher in the weeks ahead.
- Written summary + actionable plan (easy-to-follow, not overwhelming), so you can feel clear on what to focus on without information overload.
- Troubleshooting during the session (bring your exact challenges), so you can get support for your real-life challenges, not just generic newborn advice.
- Science- and experience-backed education based on my work with over 1,000 families, so you can feel confident in your parenting decisions, no matter what comes up.
- Clarity around the key developmental milestones shaping your newborn’s sleep, so you know what to expect, when changes are coming, and how to adjust with more ease.
- 411 on Feeding + Sleep Guide, so you can better understand how feeding and sleep work together in the newborn stage and feel more prepared navigating both together
 Â
When you finally understand your newborn’s sleep, you will:
Â
- Move through your days with more confidence because you’ll understand what’s normal, what your baby needs, and how to respond in the moment
- Feel calmer and more prepared during naps, night wakings, feeding challenges, and fussy stretches, instead of constantly wondering if you’re “doing it wrong”
- Create healthy sleep foundations early, so you’re not spending months later trying to undo patterns that quietly formed in the newborn stage
- Experience more predictable rhythms throughout the day, making life with a newborn feel more manageable, grounded, and less chaotic
- Stop relying on conflicting tips from social media, blogs, and well-meaning friends and start trusting your own ability to support your baby
- Feel supported instead of alone in the newborn stage, knowing you have a flexible framework to come back to when things change (because they always do)Â
