>>> eve tannery: Parents everywhere know that it can be a challenge to get a good nights sleep with a baby or toddler around. >> jaciel cordoba: But, a Lehigh Valley mom says she can change that. WFMZs Nancy Werteen tells us more in Life Lessons. >>Nancy: This mom has four children herself including a set of twins.She says she found success with something called the Sleep Sense program. So much so, that she started her own business teaching other parents how to guide their children to better sleep. >>Nancy: Max and Jack Shaver of Palmer Township are happy babies but their mom says it hasn't always been this way. >>Lauren Shaver/ Mom: 18:11 They were just miserable all the time. We would be like, okay they're tired, let's put them down and they'd sleep for like 30 minutes and then the cycle would start all over again and it was exhausting 18:11>>Nancy: So Lauren turned to Ronee Welch, of Old Zionsville, who created her own business called sleeptastic solutions. She's the 911 of sleep and will design a customized plan for tired parents. Her advice is based on the Sleep Sense program..something Ronee turned to after having difficulty with her twin girls and their sleeping habits. >>Ronee Welc Sleeptastic Solutions: 12:36 But then a few years later i also used it with my son in a newborn state so it wasn't really sleeping training it was sleep teaching so i taught him what to do right from the beginning so i didn't have to change anything later on. 2: 50>>Nancy: Ronee 's advice: No sleep props like feeding, swings, car rides, pacifiers or rocking. >>Ronee Welch/ Sleeptastic Solutions: 10:03 That's really the big key..iyou can get your child to go to sleep all by themselves then when they wake in the night they're going to know how to get back to sleep all by themselves 10:12>>Nancy: Next, have a bedtime routine that includes something like reading a book. 6:46 NAt Sound: "Good night cow">>Ronee Welch/ Sleeptastic Solutions:>>11:52 Somewhere around 30 minutes, you can do 45 minutes if you're including a bath. You want it to be a set of enjoyable activities, something that happens every sleep situation 12:02>>Nancy: Establish an early bedtime, don't skip naps and be consistent. >>Ronee Welch/ Sleeptastic Solutions: 13:35 If you're not consistent with what you're doing your child's not going to know what to do. These new sleep skills take time and so they need a chance to practicat every situation 13:48>>Lauren Shaver: 15:45 The best piece of advice that Ronee gave me was she gave me the confidence to know i was making the right choices. 15:51 >>Nancy: If youd like to learn more you can visit Ronees website, http://ift.tt/1sv5cHW.
