Rest Assured is not another sleep training book. This is a book for parents who want to help their babies sleep while staying true to the instinctual drive for parent-child connection, security, and attachment. Author Louise Herbert—a certified expert in sleep science, lactation, and perinatal and infant mental health—offers a neuroscience-backed approach that supports each child's unique needs and biological development.
