Annabel and Me by Jo Tantum

Jo Tantum is the UK's No 1 baby sleep expert. Her best-selling book Baby Secrets is available at all good bookstores and also available through Amazon.

Ever since I first started maternity nursing I was always asked what to do when it was time for weaning – and my answer was always the same, get Annabel Karmel’s Baby and Toddler Meal Planner.

It’s such a great book, reassuring and step by step advice so all my mums now have a copy. And now that Annabel has written so many more fantastic books, I can recommend even more.

So when Annabel approached me to do a sleep feature for  her, I was very excited because there is such a big link between sleeping and food. From a breastfeeding mum producing enough milk for her baby to babies who start waking up in the night because they need to be weaned, it is so important that everyone gets it right.

As a parent there is nothing more important than a happy healthy baby who eats well, enjoys their food and, of course, sleeps like a dream!
