Uspávání: what if supporting infants with sleep was just considered 'normal'? With anthropologist Lenka Medvecová Tinková

What if there was no word for self-settling? How different would your parenting experience be if nobody expected your baby to sleep in a cot in their own room? This week I'm joined by Lenka Medvecová Tinková from the Durham University Infancy and Sleep Centre to talk about how our cultural expectations shape parenting decisions and ultimately how we feel about ourselves as mothers.For more information about Lenka you can follow her on Instagram: the English speaking account is @sleepanthropologist or she has her Czech account @prosimspinkejhttps://prosimspinkej.cz/And for more info about Durham University and BASIS (Baby Sleep Info Service) see: www.basisonline.org.uk===============================For more information about the Little Nest Sleep guides and webinars, go to https://littlenest.podia.com/
