Hi there, it's Matt here and welcome back to the podcast and welcome to a new series that is all about sleep in infants, in kids, in parents, in parents.

Now, this series is going to be a little different than normal.

Normally, as well you know, it's just me but for this topic

series I've brought in and interviewed Dr Craig Canopari who is one of the world leaders in pediatric sleep medicine.

And he is a pediatrician at Yale New Haven Children's Hospital,

and there he specializes in the care of children with

breathing disorders and sleep-related problems. By the way, Dr Canapari, Craig,

he's a good friend. Craig has also written a fantastic book on

sleep for babies, sleep for kids and parents. It is called It's Never Too Late to Sleep Train.

It is so well written and it's not a long book.

You can read it in a day or less.

So have a look at the book as I said it's called it's never too late to

sleep train so please enjoy this first episode in a new series all about sleep, infants, teenagers, kids, and advice

for parents. Craig, it is a distinct pleasure and an absolute delight to have you on the show and

alongside for this series regarding sleep, infancy, infants, childhood, teens.

Thank you so much for doing this.

It is certainly not my area of expertise. I knew I had to have someone to guide us

through a journey on this topic. I get asked about this topic so much and I just

never felt robust in terms of my own clinical, scientific, even personal experience and you have all three of these and there was just one person who has done such amazing work

from a public health communication clinical standpoint in these areas there was only one person that I desperately wanted to interview so you

were it thank you so much for joining me thank you so much for having me I am

thrilled to be here. Thank you Craig. So as I mentioned this will be a four part series. We're going to speak about three stages I think of human development, infancy.
