And so, the baby has arrived. Dad and mom need a day or night off to recharge. But, the little one won’t sleep! Or his sleep pattern is so erratic it’s unpredictable, therefore, they cannot leave the tot to a nanny or grandparent since sometimes only the parents or the mom in particular can put him to sleep.
It might be counterintuitive to have a family sleepover at a hotel since it’s not home and the baby most likely will be sensitive to the new surroundings; but wouldn’t it be great to have a change of view once in a while? To not be worried about chores for a while? Let the housekeeping do the work for you!
