Amy and Laura Van Zandt discuss sleep through the lens of developmental differences. They discuss why so many children with developmental differences struggle with sleep, some of the biggest misconceptions about sleep in children with developmental differences. They talk about why bedtime can be the hardest part of the day for children, and signs that parents can watch for to help tell the difference between ”typical” sleep challenges and signs that something more may be going on. Additionally, Laura walks listeners through specific steps they can take tonight to help their child improve their sleep.
