You know routines help.
Parents want to know why.

Routines and schedules are often overlooked as a way to help kids feel secure, know what to expect and thrive. When you suggest one, parents and other caregivers may not see the point.

From a baby's first moment, everything they have known has changed. Outside the womb there is no set temperature, no maternal circadian rhythm to guide wake and sleep cycles, no food on demand and no constant soothing motion. They now depend on us to meet their every need.

This free course helps you better explain to parents and other caregivers why routines are so important.
