‘Milk, Sleep and Your Baby’s Brain’ Webinar
Overview
Milk, Sleep & Your Baby’s BrainAn evidence-based masterclass on infant sleep, breastfeeding and early brain development.
Is your baby waking often at night?Are you being told to “stretch feeds”… “self-settle”… or “fix” their sleep?
What if your baby isn’t broken?What if their sleep — and your milk — are working exactly as nature intended?
In Milk, Sleep & Your Baby’s Brain, Pinky McKay, lactation consultant and best-selling author of Sleeping Like a Baby (Penguin Random House) unpacks the powerful biological connection between breastfeeding, night waking and optimal brain development — so you can stop second-guessing yourself and start trusting what feels right.
This isn’t about sleep training.It’s about understanding your baby.
In this webinar, you’ll discover:
- Why frequent night waking can be biologically protective
- How breast milk actively supports brain growth — especially at night
- The hormonal magic behind feeding, bonding and sleep
- What infant sleep really looks like (and why expectations often sabotage confidence)
- How to gently support sleep without undermining breastfeeding or attachment
You’ll walk away feeling reassured, informed and empowered — with practical strategies you can use immediately.
This webinar is for you if:
✔ You’re exhausted and wondering if you’re “doing it wrong”✔ You’ve been pressured to sleep train but it doesn’t sit right✔ You want evidence-based information without guilt or fear✔ You value connection, biology and your baby’s emotional wellbeing
Your baby’s brain is developing at an extraordinary rate in the first years of life.Night feeds. Closeness. Responsiveness. These aren’t “bad habits.”
They’re building brains.
Join me and let’s separate sleep myths from neuroscience — so you can parent with confidence, not doubt.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a sleep training webinar?
No. This is about understanding biologically normal infant sleep and how feeding, hormones and brain development work together. You’ll gain insight and practical strategies — without pressure to use sleep training methods that don’t align with you.
Will this help if my baby wakes frequently?
Absolutely. In fact, this is especially for you. You’ll understand why frequent waking happens and how to respond in ways that support both your baby’s development and your own wellbeing.
Is this only for breastfeeding mums?
While we focus on the unique properties of breast milk and night feeding, the neuroscience of infant sleep and attachment applies to all babies.
What age is this relevant for?
Ideal for parents of babies from newborn through toddlerhood — particularly in the first two years when brain development is most rapid.
I’m exhausted. Will this just tell me to cope?
No. You’ll leave with reassurance, realistic expectations and practical strategies that protect attachment and support more settled sleep over time.
P.S. The early years are a once-in-a-lifetime window for brain development. The information in this webinar may completely shift how you see night waking — and your confidence as a mother. Don’t miss this.
