We Nurture: Waldorf Inspired Parenting

Creating Emotional Safety for Your Child at Bedtime for Better Sleep


Listen Later

In this solo episode of The We Nurture Podcast, Chinyelu shares insights to help you navigate one of the most tender parts of the day for your child: bedtime.

If your child resists going to sleep, expresses fears at night, or needs more from you at bedtime than you feel you have to give, you’re not alone. This episode explores why bedtime can bring so many big feelings to the surface—and how you can lovingly support your child through them, without losing your own sense of calm.

Chinyelu unpacks what bedtime fears may really be communicating, why it’s not always about the fear itself, and how rhythm and storytelling can be powerful tools for comfort and connection. You’ll come away with practical ideas and a renewed perspective on how to ease your evenings and support your child in feeling safe enough to rest.

In this episode, Chinyelu explores:

  •  Why fears and resistance often show up at bedtime
  •  What your child might really need at the end of the day
  •  How to bring more connection and calm to the bedtime rhythm
  •  The power of stories to meet emotional needs and ease anxiety
  •  Simple shifts to help your child feel safe and ready for sleep

  • This episode will leave you feeling more grounded, more confident, and more equipped to handle bedtime with love and intention.
