Today’s guest is Dr. Scott Rollo, a behaviour change scientist and public health professional. His work focuses on kids’ health — especially physical activity, screen time, and healthy habits. Scott has helped shape national and international guidelines and works with schools and families to support healthier, more active, and resilient children!

Children at this age need healthy sleep for proper development, to boost their immune systems, and to help them take in the big, bright, ever-changing world around them. At this age and in this environment, amazing sleep habits can be established very quickly with loads of consistency and tons of love involved!  We will work closely with your family to develop a sleep plan that is right for your child, and help you help your little one to be sleeping through the night and taking proper naps within our two weeks together!
