Every parent knows the sound of a baby who won't settle down to sleep. Crying and restlessness, especially in young babies, can be both distressing and tiring.
Ria Blom is an expert in swaddling—ways of wrapping babies securely and helping them relax naturally into sleep. Swaddling works by inducing a sense of safety and comfort for the baby—and it can work wonders for the parent as well.
This insightful book offers quick solutions for parents under stress, as well as plenty of background information on sleeping patterns and baby routines.

Ria Blom, born 1949, has worked at the anthroposophical health centre in Utrecht since 1985. Since 1994 she has specialised in and researched the effects of swaddling on restlessness in young children.
'This is a very practical guide to how to deal with a baby that won't sleep, eats irregularly and basically drives its parents up the wall. [...] How to approach the swaddling technique is extensively and explained and beautifully and clearly illustrated. Ria Blom writes in a very clear and direct way, guiding you with a sure hand, but at the same time full of warmth and care. If you are at the end of your tether and you simply don't know where to turn for help, this book may be just what you have been waiting for.' -- Anna Phillips, New View, Autumn 2005
