The Ultimate Daily Baby Guide
This guide is simple to follow and has proven time and time again to be effective with thousands of my clients.
If you have ever wanted the answer to any of these questions, this guide is for you!
- Is my baby awake too long?
- When should I feed my baby, after they wake or before they sleep?
- Does my baby need more sleep in their day?
- How should I structure each day with my little one? I want guidance on when they should nap and when they should feed.
- When should I drop naps?
- Should I let my bub sleep longer on nap one or nap two?
- Guidance on why I should not wake bub from nap one, but what to do on the rare times I have to!
- Is catnapping normal (and what actually is a catnap!)
- And much, much more!
Many 1,000's of families have had their sleep sorted under the expert guidance of The Gentle Sleep Specialist, Tara Mitchell, and now you can too.
Solving your little one's sleep gives them the best start to life (did you know that sleep promotes sleep, hormones are regulated, immune systems, growth, and development strengthened, digestion and tissue repair are tended to and skills and learnings consolidated during sleep?) plus, the additional strain that is placed on families and relationships when there is no routine or boundaries when it comes to sleep.
The Ultimate Daily Baby Guide is a solid, reliable foundation for getting sleep routines and establishing the needs of your little one.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your little ones are born to seek attachment, and we understand this deeply as mothers and professionals dedicated to helping families build stronger, connected relationships. We advocate for strong attachment and use a range of methods to suit each family, always seeing your little ones as whole beings. True attachment is about responsiveness—being attuned, emotionally available, and responsive to your child’s needs. Practices like breastfeeding or co-sleeping don’t ensure attachment if a mother is touched out and unable to be present. Don’t worry if you’re feeling irritable or stretched; this doesn’t mean you’re harming attachment. Healthy sleep habits actually support attachment by helping caregivers be more present and emotionally available.
Babies cry—it’s a natural way to communicate and release energy. We work to minimize crying, and our child psychologist is part of that process. Despite beliefs that crying raises cortisol and harms little ones, tears are normal and essential. It’s your attuned, caring response that matters. Studies show that responsive sleep support does not harm babies; in fact, it promotes healthy development.
