Dad’s Nighttime Guide: Comforting Sick Kids When the Sun Goes Down

When your little one wakes up in the middle of the night feeling sick, it can feel overwhelming for both of you.

Remember, your presence is the best medicine. What’s your go-to trick for soothing a sick child at night? Share your tips below! #DadLife #ParentingTips #FamilyFirst #Parenting
