We share a simple plan to set a workable bedtime by starting from wake time, matching age-based sleep needs, and making small, steady shifts. We explain how naps, growth, and morning behavior signal when to adjust.

• age-based sleep ranges and how to use them
• working backward from wake time to set bedtime
• checking wake-up ease as a key signal
• moving bedtime 15–30 minutes earlier when needed
• adjusting gradually during time changes
• handling nap drops and consolidating night sleep

Please reach out to me on Instagram, be their parent, and I'm happy to answer any questions.
