Finally, a no-worry, no-guilt guide to sleep. There's no such thing as a one-size-fits-all sleep solution. That's why Sleep Solutions for Your Baby, Toddler, and Preschooler provides you with the tools you need to come up with a customized sleep solution that takes into account your child's temperament, your parenting philosophies, and the rest of your life. You'll also get the lowdown on:

• the physical, emotional and relationship fallout of sleep deprivation -- along with an action plan for minimizing these effects
• what the world's leading sleep researchers have identified as the best-odds sleep promotion strategies for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers
• the science behind each of the major sleep training methods -- along with the inside scoop on the major pros and cons, according to parents who've tried them
• co-sleeping, partners in exile (in the spare bedroom), and other hot-button topics in the world of sleep
• sleep transitions: from co-sleeping to solo sleeping; from crib to bed; from napping to no more naps
• nightmares, night terrors, bedtime refusal, and too-early risers

Includes

• checklists, charts, and sleep tools, including a handy sleep log
