Show Notes

Guilty of having tried melatonin to get a restless kid to sleep? You're very much not alone. Today I'm going to do a bit of a deep dive into melatonin use in kids - what melatonin really is, what data supports using it for children, when NOT to use it for children (spoiler - in the vast majority of kids, we don't want to), and why we want to avoid it. Most of all, I'll share some tactical things you can think about to help your child sleep without using any medications, and what to do if none of them seem to work!
