Research is a powerful tool, but you also have to keep a sharp eye on it. I look critically at the research and what it says (or more importantly, doesn't say) about sleep training. I also look at how the research is translated into parenting advice (spoiler alert: not super well).

​

My research focuses on the following questions:

  • Is crying it out as quick, effective, and without side effects as the experts say (especially for babies under six months)?

  • What does the research say about using crying it out with more intense/sensitive children?

  • Is there more to a "difficult" temperament than just the "difficult" traits?

  • How much of what parents are told in books about sleep is supported by research?
