Forget what you’ve heard about sleep training — let’s explore a baby-led, flexible approach. Like many parents, Rachael Shepard-Ohta, founder of Hey Sleepy Baby and host of the No One Told Us podcast, discovered that traditional sleep training methods didn’t work for her child. In this episode, we debunk common misconceptions about sleep training and discuss the surprising benefits of co-sleeping and bed sharing.
Rachael shares the methods that helped her overcome her child’s four-month sleep regression, how her approach evolved with each child, and where to find trustworthy resources on safe sleep practices. Join our conversation to explore different sleep options and rethink what works best for your family!
