Conclusion
Helping your child develop healthy sleep habits involves a combination of understanding underlying causes, establishing consistent routines, creating a restful environment, and setting loving boundaries. By addressing fears, limiting stimulants, and staying patient and consistent, you can make bedtime a smoother process for the whole family.
Remember, progress may take time, and each child is unique. If sleep difficulties continue despite your efforts, consider consulting your pediatrician or a sleep specialist for additional support. For more comprehensive guidance, visit the Sleep Foundation’s resources for parents.
