A quiet time routine that actually works in a homeschool does not happen by accident, and pediatric sleep consultant Jessie Martin of The Goodnight House joins Erin to show how to build one. They cover nap time tips for kids 3 and under, homeschool quiet time for older kids, and how Jessie is building a sleep app while homeschooling four children.

What you'll learn in this episode

• Nap time tips for little ones, including a by the clock schedule built on age-appropriate wake windows, a dark room, and white noise.
• How to set up homeschool quiet time with a simple "quiet reading time" and how to reset it after a break.
• How a pediatric sleep consultant plans her week so she can work during quiet time and still homeschool.
• What it looks like to build an app one next step at a time.
