Overview
This two-book set brings together two of Sarah Ockwell-Smith's most trusted parenting guides in one paperback bundle. The Gentle Sleep Book tackles newborn-to-five sleep struggles with no-tears, evidence-based methods, while The Gentle Discipline Book offers a respectful alternative to punishment for raising cooperative children. Together they form an essential toolkit for parents seeking calmer, kinder ways to navigate everyday challenges from babyhood through the primary years.
About the Books
The Gentle Sleep Book steers away from controlled crying, instead offering a balanced approach that respects both a sleep-deprived parent's need for rest and a child's developmental needs. It covers night waking, night terrors and bedwetting, alongside guidance on the sleep environment, bedtime routine, diet, and using comfort objects, backed by case studies.
The Gentle Discipline Book challenges widely held beliefs about punishment, replacing them with an approach rooted in understanding rather than control. Gentle discipline is not permissiveness; it is setting realistic expectations and responding to misbehaviour with empathy and consistency, focusing on teaching rather than punishing or rewarding.
Both books are grounded in psychological research and Sarah's experience as a parenting coach, doula and antenatal teacher.
