I’m honoured to be part of the Postpartum Wisdom Summit, hosted by and Dr. Vivianne Gantous, DACM. It is a gathering of 20+ experts, clinicians, and thought leaders exploring what true healing and balance look like after birth.

While my current work is shifting to focus on helping professionals and organizations improve sleep and sustainable performance, my career began by supporting families in the postpartum period. That early experience revealed just how deeply sleep, recovery, and identity are intertwined, lessons that remain central to the work I continue to do.

The summit goes beyond postpartum. It’s about understanding how we reclaim energy, presence, and balance through life’s many transitions, whether at home, at work, and within ourselves.

✨ The event is free and open to all.

Best advice for tonight and tomorrow is to go to bed earlier than normal to bank some sleep.

Tips for Sunday:

School Age Children – Split the difference with the old time and new time. If you have a child that does not nap and normally goes to bed around 7:00pm, you would put him to bed at 7:30pm on Sunday night, the first night of the time change. Do this for 3 nights, putting him to bed 30 minutes later than his normal time, then on the 4th night put him to bed at the normal time, 7:00pm or whatever is normal bedtime for your child.

Toddlers & Pre School Age – If you have a child age one and older, on Sunday, the first day of the time change, you would put him for his first nap 30 minutes later than normal. So if he naps at 9:30am usually, you would put him down at 10:00am. You would do the same with the afternoon nap if he takes an afternoon nap. For bedtime, if his normal bedtime is 7:00pm, you would put him down at 7:30pm. Do this for 3 nights after the time change and then on the 4th night, put him to bed at 7:00pm and on 5th day move naptimes back to normal time. So if your child naps at 9:30am, put him down at 9:30am and so on with the rest of the day.

Infants – If you have a baby and his bedtime has become predictable (usually over 6 months old) meaning he is always going to bed around the same time each night. If bedtime is normally 7:00pm move bedtime 15 minutes earlier each night until you reach the new normal time. So the first few nights you would put him down at 7:45pm, the second set of nights 7:30pm, and so on. Within a week or so you should be back to 7:00pm. If their bed is not predictable (0-6 months old) simply jump to the new time Sunday night as if you were traveling to a new time zone.

Happy Halloween 🎃👻

We hope you have a fun filled day and a safe night trick or treating!

🎃 We know bedtimes can get a bit later on nights like this but remember the routine is still important - don’t just rush your kids off to bed, they likely have a harder time settling quickly.

🎃 When you get in, start your routine - do pjs, brush teeth and read a book(s) and then off to bed.

🎃 Get them back on track tomorrow (maybe even a slightly earlier bedtime) and your sleep will remain a pillar in your home!
