Does
your child wake at night?
Each year over 12,000 parents
tell Ngala that they have some difficulty with managing their
childrenís sleep or their own level of fatigue
Australian research shows that
45 to 55 per cent of Australian families experience sleep difficulties
with children in their first year of life.
Did you know that 49 per cent of all babies are still waking on
their first birthday? A
third of four year olds also wake once in the night.
Ngala has been assisting
families and professionals in adjusting childrenís sleep patterns
for many years, and is now well recognised and recommended by many
thousands of parents and professionals in WA
Ngala conducts education
sessions on sleep at four locations around Perth in Kensington,
Butler, Joondalup Noranda and Rockingham, and the research curriculum
covers:
* importance of sleep and
effects of lack of sleep
* what happens when we sleep, sleep cycles and sleep habits
* understanding crying, baby communication and different types of
cries
* safe sleeping and preparing environments for sleep
* strategies to improving sleep pattens
The two-hour groups sessions are
age specific: You and Your New Baby (up to 12 weeks); Growing Baby
(three to six months); And So To Sleep (seven months to two years);
and Now in a Bed (two to five years)
