Equipped for the Night: Navigating Baby Sleep with Sr Marion Wing

In a world saturated with digital “sleep gurus” and rigid, one-size-fits-all routines, new parents are facing unprecedented anxiety when it comes to infant sleep. In this episode, we sit down with veteran healthcare professional Sister Marion Wing, who brings over 45 years of clinical wisdom, passion, and heart to the table.

We cut through the commercial noise and dive deep into the actual evolutionary biology of how babies sleep. Sister Marion breaks down why infant sleep cycles look so different from adult cycles, the vital role of the parent-infant “dyad,” and how parents can prepare themselves antenatally for the realities of life with a newborn. If you are an exhausted parent looking for realistic, compassionate, and science-backed insights, this episode is your sanctuary.
