Welcome to Day 4! If the “stay in the room” method hasn’t been going as smoothly as you hoped, today’s video is for you. Dana Obleman introduces the “leave and check” method—a gentle, flexible alternative that may work better for some babies.
You’ll learn:
– Signs that the “stay in the room” method might not be the right fit
– How to use the “leave and check” technique step by step
– What to say or do during your check-ins to keep things calm and consistent
– Why this method works well for some babies who are overstimulated by your presence
