Balancing a Newborn and a Toddler Newborns 0–3 Months | Day 12
Welcome to Day 12! Today, Dana Obleman shares tips for a challenge so many parents face: how to manage sleep routines and daily life when you have a newborn and a toddler at home.
It can feel like a lot—but with a few simple shifts, you can meet both kids’ needs (and keep your sanity).
In this video, you’ll learn:
– Why toddlers often test boundaries (especially at bedtime) when a new sibling arrives
– How to handle bedtime pushback without giving in to guilt
– The importance of staying firm and consistent with routines
– A simple solution for balancing newborn naps with toddler outings
– Why “special time” with your toddler can reduce acting out and boost connection
👣 Try this: Make the morning all about home-based naps for baby, then head out in the afternoon for stroller or carrier naps while your toddler gets some much-needed playtime.
✨ It’s a juggling act—but you’ve got this!
