Why I Hate The Term "Cry-It-Out" (it’s probably not why you think!)
First and foremost, Cry-it-out (CIO) also known as "extinction" is NOT an approach used by The Happy Sleep Company, but certainly one that is very prevalent among search engine results related to sleep coaching. So let's talk about it, in this episode I explain why I hate the term CIO (which might not be why you think) and also gives parents an understanding of what CIO really is.Don’t need step-by-step sleep coaching, but need advice on age-specific awake times, milestones, regressions, scheduling tweaks, and more? Our Sleep Guides have you covered!Erin Junker | Paediatric Sleep ConsultantInstagram @thehappysleepcompanyWebsite www.thehappysleepcompany.com
