Snooze Member Masterclass: Small Changes, Big Sleep Wins
Notes de l’épisode
What if you didn't need a big sleep training plan to see real results? In this Snooze Masterclass, Sally and Bec break down a real-life message from a family member whose 11-week-old is now sleeping 11 hours overnight — after just a handful of small, low-pressure changes. No crying it out. No dramatic overhaul. Just the right foundations, applied consistently.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
• Why a hard 7am wake time is the single most powerful anchor for your baby's day
• How swaddling for every nap works as a sleep association — and why the Miracle Blanket is a game-changer
• The difference between a baby who is awake and a baby who is just noisy overnight
• Why over-responding at night can accidentally create the very wake-ups you're trying to avoid
• How these small changes protect you heading into the four-month sleep regression
• Why it's okay — and sometimes better — to pop baby down and see what happens
