Sleep is one of the most common concerns for new parents, and the realities of infant sleep are often different from what many expect. Join us for an educational discussion group designed to help working parents better understand healthy sleep patterns during the first year of parenthood and learn practical strategies for supporting both infant and parental well-being. Participants will explore what is developmentally normal for baby sleep, how sleep needs evolve throughout the first year, and ways to navigate common challenges such as night wakings, sleep regressions, and parental exhaustion. This group will also highlight the importance of caregiver rest, self-compassion, and building a support system during this demanding season of life. Whether you're preparing for a new baby, currently navigating sleepless nights, or planning a return to work, you'll leave with realistic expectations, evidence-based insights, and actionable tools to support healthier sleep for the entire family.

This series will be facilitated by a Parent Wellness Expert and will meet for 2 consecutive weeks on Zoom:

• Wednesday, September 23, 12:00pm EDT/11:00am CDT

• Wednesday, September 30, 12:00pm EDT/11:00am CDT
