  • Super helpful for new moms!

    I started listening to Laila when I was pregnant with my daughter. So many of the episodes were insanely helpful & gave me the peace of mind & confidence I needed as a new momma. The topics helped me to start asking questions & researching on my own about what I wanted to do for my kiddos. Love this podcast!

    Thank you for being a great mom friend!

The guest gave a few tips, but most are things I’ve read elsewhere. This episode released on May 12, 2025, and I listened just over a month later on June 18, 2025. The sleep training website mentioned is no longer available, which seems really weird to me. There are so many sleep training experts out there—why i... more
