Sleep can be a triggering word for parents. From the often-suggested ‘nap when the baby naps’ to bedtime battles with toddlers, sleep can often seem anything but restful. But its importance should not be marginalized, for both parents and children. Doctor Robyn Stremler is a Toronto-based professor and researcher who specializes in improving sleep and health outcomes for infants, children, and parents. She offers her insights for parents of preemies in this episode. With You in the NICU is a podcast for those that care for infants in a neonatal intensive care unit. The discussions are geared toward parents of preemies, but will resonate with anyone spending time beside a NICU isolette. With You in the NICU is a project of the Canadian Premature Babies Foundation, with funding from presenting sponsor Medela and support from AbbVie and Prolacta. The podcast's host and producer is Jenna Morton; technical producer is Tosh Taylor.
