Into the book
'Believe in your baby's abilities.
The baby can do it by himself.
Parents can help their children do so.'
Let us keep this sentence in mind.
The outrageous methods that caregivers try to soothe a crying baby only serve to further stimulate and burden an already stressed child.
If your baby has had enough to eat and is not wet in his diaper, it is better to calm him down using calming steps.
All you have to do is let your baby know that you are there to support him or her and understand how he or she feels, even if it means having a hard time all day.

--- p.
62

Intuitively, the fact that this 'eat-play-sleep' cycle must be repeated nine times a day shows how difficult the 'job of a parent' can be.
But, juniors, there is a glimmer of hope here.
Let's look at the table again.
During the first two weeks, the baby repeats the eat-play-sleep cycle nine times a day, but when the baby reaches 12 to 13 months, you will notice that the eating schedule changes to three times a day.
The point is that managing the eat-play-sleep cycle that repeats nine times a day is not something that needs to be done throughout one's life.
You'll feel much more at ease if you approach this as a specific task that only occurs for a very short period of time.

--- p.
135

Caregivers should plan their babies' daily routines to ensure they receive adequate amounts of quality nutrition (breastmilk/formula) and sleep at appropriate times, at appropriate intervals.
To help parents understand this process, I often use the concepts of "eat tank" and "sleep tank."
If you visualize two energy tanks in your mind, it will be much easier to understand how to create a feeding and sleeping schedule for your baby.

--- p.
163

So, now that you've firmly grasped the concepts of "eat-time" and "sleep-time," let's learn and apply the basic principles of planning your baby's day using "eat-time" and "sleep-time."
The best thing to do at this time would be to follow the order of 'eat → play → sleep', but babies are organisms and do not always follow a mechanical schedule.
That is, you may not sleep until the scheduled time for the next feeding, but may wake up earlier than that.
In this case, it could be 'eat-play-sleep-play-eat'.
… (omitted)… Rather than mechanically sticking to a set schedule 100%, the key to proper parenting is to adhere to the general principles, but to respond appropriately to variables that arise depending on the baby’s condition, so that the caregiver can manage the baby’s entire daily routine flexibly and regularly.

--- p.
165

I developed and used the 'Same-Same-Sleep Pyramid' when raising my two children.
It is easy to plan your baby's day if you write down food and sleep on the left and right sides respectively.
This was created by reminding me of the balance sheet (B/S) I ​​often saw when I worked at a financial company.
By recording eating and sleeping separately in each section, it is easier to determine how often the baby ate and how much sleep he or she got.

--- p.
171

By drawing a 'sleep-wake cycle', you can determine the optimal time of day to give your baby the best sleep.
To draw this cycle, we need to understand two elements.
These are ① circadian rhythm and ② sleep-wake homeostasis.
… (omitted)… When understanding human sleep, it is important to properly understand these two essential characteristics.
So, how can we align the fundamental elements of "circadian rhythm" and "homeostasis = sleep pressure"? Simply draw a line between circadian rhythm and homeostasis (sleep pressure), and then go to sleep and wake up at the optimal timing.

--- p.
214

‘Touch’ and ‘skinship’, where a caregiver caresses a baby’s body, are excellent tools for calming the baby.
Therefore, it is recommended to keep your hand on the baby's body as much as possible throughout the soothing process.
Then, when it seems like the baby is no longer crying, you can take your hands off.
If your baby continues to cry or thrash when you stop patting him, as we've discussed before, listen to his cries for a while rather than taking any action right away.

--- p.
286

The 'Smart Parenting Waiting Schedule' is also useful for teaching your child how to fall asleep.
This is just an example, so you can use it as a reference.
However, the schedule I'm sharing is a useful guideline that I've used in consulting with tens of thousands of parents both domestically and internationally, so if it fits your situation, you can use it as a guideline.
… (omitted)… Use the timer exactly as you would any other timer, and use it to focus on a peaceful and sweet sleep ritual for the last few minutes before putting your baby to sleep.

--- p.
317

Parenting is like a fingerprint. When I internalize and master the basics of parenting and apply them in real life, my own unique 'parenting style' is formed.
… (omitted)… Only when the chicks (disciples) inside the egg and the mother hen (teacher) outside the egg simultaneously peck at the shell from both the inside and outside, the classes and courses of the sleep program will be effective.

--- p.
322

Establishing a daily schedule for your child and helping them develop the ability to fall asleep on their own.
Although the underlying framework of the process remains the same, the method used may vary slightly depending on the child's temperament, the caregiver's goals, and each family's circumstances.
Even when we work at our jobs, there are target KPIs (Key Performance Indicators).
Setting target KPIs and working towards them will make you more efficient.
So, this course is designed for parents who want to sleep train their babies in a clear and definitive way.

--- p.
358

The '7-day rule' states that it takes 3 days to form a 'bad habit' and 7 days to break it.
So, when you want to break a bad habit, you have to be determined and have 'confidence' about the direction you want to go.
Otherwise, you may end up giving up in a state of neither here nor there.
… (omitted)… To get rid of this, you need to spend 7 days and put in effort.
The important thing is for you, the parent, to 'recognize' in your head that this is a habit that needs to be eliminated.
That alone will change the situation you will face in the future a lot.
The perception itself of looking at a phenomenon is that important.

Publisher's Review
The new edition of the nation's must-read parenting book, "Smart Parenting," is out now!
A treasured book that I want to keep to myself, passed down from generation to generation like the 'Bible of Parenting'!

The endless daily challenges that come with becoming a parent… Among them, 'child sleep' is the biggest challenge for new parents.

In addition, we are creating a better child-rearing environment by providing the knowledge essential for a baby's growth and change in a systematic and in-depth way unique to 『Dokge Parenting』.
As a pioneer and founder of the field of infant and toddler sleep, the author has continuously researched the field with a sense of mission, and the results of his experience applying this to actual parenting while coaching tens of thousands of parents, as well as the experiences and verification of numerous existing readers, have made 『Smart Parenting』 the undisputed No. 1 in the field of infant and toddler sleep in Korea.
It became a bestseller.


A must-read textbook for anyone starting to learn parenting!
Parenting by yourself = A modern version of parenting that saves you from single parenting in the city!


The author says that he worked very hard in 'intellectual labor' for the sake of future generations of parents.
As someone with over 10 years of experience in the workplace, he found it odd that there was no precedent for someone to have taken the time to write a "handover document" for a new job or workplace, such as "parenting" or "childcare."
『Straightforward Parenting』 is a book created with the spirit of Hongik Ingan, where the author personally researched and passed down all the know-how on feeding and putting babies to sleep for his beloved 'childcare successors' and 'juniors'.
This book is a product of the author's craftsmanship, with every single illustration, table, and note passed through his hands.
"Straight Parenting" has established itself as a virtual parental home for the modern parenting generation.
The author has been immersed in this work with the goal of writing 『Smart Parenting』 more properly and in depth as his top priority.
Now it's time for readers to taste the results.


'A book like the 'Mathematics Essentials' of the parenting world!'
The phenomenon of using the same term as standard language among parents

There is no parent in Korea who has not raised their children 'smartly' and 'lazily'.
As a newbie to parenting in Korea, if you don't know how to raise children correctly, you're a spy.

Just as the book 『The Essentials of Mathematics』 is a book that anyone who has been a student in the Republic of Korea would have read at least once, there is a saying that if a person who is new to parenting in the Republic of Korea does not know 『Smart Parenting』, they are a spy.
If you are new to parenting, you will learn about parenting through 『Smart Parenting』, and it is said that 『Smart Parenting』 is the '『Mathematics Classics』 of the parenting world' among Korean parents, to the point that people use the terminology of 『Smart Parenting』.
Readers say that in the chaotic world of parenting, Dokgae Parenting provides a solid foundation with its unique, systematic, and logical structure, providing a sense of stability.
Another nickname is that it is like a deep and rich bone broth that continues to boil over and over again every time you read it (boil it), as you will always discover new values ​​and facts you didn't know about every time you read it for the second or third time.


This new edition of Parenting with Equal Rights will be a great help to you as a reliable parenting companion during the first year after giving birth, a time when you should feel the most sparkling happiness in the world, a senior who is good at teaching you the best job handover manual that will not get in the way of any problem, and a capable mentor who has already experienced everything from beginning to end.


Smart - Based on knowledge and understanding of accurate parenting
Laziness - Even in parenting, you can create productive laziness and leisure!

* What is proper parenting?

'Dokge' is an abbreviation for 'smart and lazy'.
'Smart Parenting' means that you can create productive laziness and leisure in parenting based on your knowledge and understanding of smart and accurate parenting.
This means that with Ddokgeurikwa, you can have a leisurely and happy parenting.
The knowledge and values ​​learned and acquired through parenting will be the best gift for the healthy growth and development of your lovely baby.

Becoming a parent who studies for the happiness of your child.
This allows the parent to upgrade themselves to a better level.

This is the kind of parenting that both parents and children are happy, as pursued by Ddokgeurikwa.

I worked very hard on 'intellectual labor' for the sake of future generations of parents!
No. 1 in childcare.
Create a business handover document.
The birth of a special parenting genealogy!

As you read this book, you will feel the thrill of holding in your hands the special parenting genealogy of a mother with over 10 years of experience raising her teenage daughter and son, and the first sleep education expert in Korea.
Following the success of 『Smart Parenting』, the author studied and shared more specialized information to meet the enthusiastic response from readers. He obtained the internationally certified sleep specialist certification from the 'Family Sleep Institute', completed the professional course and certification from Australia's 'Baby Sleep School', and obtained the Positive Discipline certification. He also served as the Asian representative of the International Association of Sleep Consultants, evolving into a certified representative sleep specialist in Korea.
In addition, I utilize my professional qualifications to provide consulting services to foreign parents, and I am constantly researching and studying the field through interactions with other global sleep education experts.


The author has rewritten this 『Smart Parenting』 with a subtitle of ‘Infant and Toddler Sleep Education’ and added more in-depth content.
The text consists of a total of 7 chapters.
Chapter 1 provides mindset and basic knowledge for new parents who have stepped into the new career field of 'parenting', and Chapter 2 summarizes the know-how for feeding, putting to sleep, and playing with the baby that must be completed each week, as well as key developmental milestones.
Chapter 3 explains the concepts of sleep education that the author personally created, such as 'Eat-Play-Sleep', 'Eat-Term', and 'Sleep-Term', and provides specific schedules on how to efficiently plan your baby's daily routine.
This is a killing part that you must understand and solidify the basic concepts for proper parenting and sleep education.


Chapter 4 delves into the principles of infant and toddler sleep, reflecting the latest guidelines from leading sleep education research institutions around the world, including Harvard and Stanford, covering everything from how to create a safe sleeping environment for babies to how to foster a comfortable sleep environment and how to properly understand your baby's cries during sleep training.
Chapter 5 provides useful calming techniques for each month and week of your baby's life.
If we previously focused on when to put your baby to sleep, this chapter will focus on 'how' to put your baby to sleep and how your baby falls asleep, providing detailed information.
The true strategy, along with scheduling, is the two main pillars of sleep education for parenting.


Chapters 6 and 7 are advanced special lessons prepared for parents who have mastered all of the previous classes in the Parenting Sleep Education program.
One-point lessons that assume detailed situations and goals, such as '10pm Fixed-Axis Nighttime Sleep Strategy', 'How to Make Your Baby Sleep 12 Hours a Night', 'How to Conquer Night Feeding', and 'How to Spend the Day with a Sophisticated Schedule to Get Long, Quality Nighttime Sleep', as well as model answer sheets and commentary on the ideal daily schedule, will serve as powerful and effective guides for parents who have been waiting for more detailed advice.
