Today I’m interviewing potty training expert, Jamie Glowacki about potty training and sleep.

Jamie's roots are in social work where she worked with dual diagnoses mothers and their kids. It’s where she learned to teach potty training on a broad scale, learned child development and parenting. She wrote 'Oh Crap! Potty Training' when she realized her very own community was wildly misinformed about potty training. She is celebrating the 10 year anniversary of her popular potty training book.

I can tell you why.

Once your kid is three, four, or five years old and out of the crib, sleep can get crazy. If you haven’t been able to get your toddler sleeping well, you’re probably missing this ONE key element.
