Need help getting your baby or toddler to sleep well? Here’s our ultimate guide to baby sleep experts in Singapore and those who do virtual sleep consultations
Sleep is a topic that weighs heavily on the minds of parents, often before babies are even born. Sure, it’s great to be prepared beforehand with sleep training strategies and to familarise yourself with the lingo (“cry it out” aka CIO or “Ferberizing”; co-sleeping; pick-up-put-down, etc.), but really you never know how you’ll feel until your baby is wailing its lungs out at 4am and you feel like you will never be yourself again.
Many parents in Singapore swear by sleep experts – both local and abroad – who take a variety of approaches and ideally tailor their advice to your family and your baby’s needs and behaviours. We’ve rounded up a list of sleep experts recommended by grateful mamas in Singapore, including some experts abroad who will help via virtual consultations. Scroll down for more!
