Gemma Coe Releases Essential Newborn Sleep Guide for New Parents: A Holistic Approach to the First 16 Weeks

Award-winning certified baby and child sleep specialist, Gemma Coe, is thrilled to announce the release of her new book, “Newborn Sleep Foundations: A handy guide for the first 16 weeks” This essential guide offers new parents a holistic approach to navigating the critical first 16 weeks of their newborn’s life, focusing on establishing healthy sleep foundations.

With an understanding that every family’s journey is unique, Coe delves into the various factors that influence newborn sleep, providing practical guidance tailored to the challenges of early parenthood.

“Newborn Sleep Foundations” is not just about how much sleep a baby is getting. “Many books focus solely on sleep training, but I wanted to create something different,” says Coe. “This book is about helping parents understand the early steps and principles of good sleep habits, without the pressure of sleep training. It’s about laying the right foundations so that parents can approach their baby’s sleep with confidence and calm rather than worry and anxiety.”
