SLEEPOLOGY WORKSHOPS
WITH
KAREN DITCHFIELD
Please click on the age/stage of your child for more details and to book:
Part 1
Parents are invited to complete our unique SLEEPOLOGY sleep questionnaire and sleep journal prior to attendance to the first workshop. Your family SLEEPOLOGY sleep questionnaire and sleep journal will be reviewed by Karen Ditchfield who will give written recommendations and advice to help parents identify specific areas of need when planning their own bespoke sleep plan.
Part 2
A 2 hour workshop.
Workshop 1 focuses on the theory of children’s sleep, but don’t worry. This is not rocket science and you do not have to sit a test but understanding the theory behind child sleep is a great starting point to understanding your own child’s sleep pattern better. Workshop 1 includes discussion of:
The function of child sleep
Child Sleep requirements across the stages of development
Common sleep disorders
Child development and its effect on sleep.
Part 3
A second 2 hour workshop. Workshop 2 focuses on the practical elements of child sleep and how you can use child sleep theory to help develop healthy sleep patterns for your own child. Within workshop 2 parents will explore:
Getting the Sleep Basics Right
Soothing & Settling Techniques
Understanding crying
Sleep tips
Tried and tested gentle methods for getting your child to sleep through the night.
Designing a bespoke family sleep plan
In addition, all SLEEPOLOGY workshops will incorporate our distinctive Haven & Base feature, Restoring Balance. Restoring balance is about understanding how stress impacts us as individuals, how stress impacts our children and how we can develop strategies for coping with stress and anxiety.
