Do toddler daycare naps ruin bedtime in your home?

Perhaps your toddler has stopped napping on the weekends and goes to bed at night pretty well. But your child is napping at daycare during the weekdays, and suddenly, bedtime has become a disaster!

You're sleep training needs a reboot.

You can’t get your toddler down until 9 p.m. or later, and sleep training at bedtime is a battle every night. 

You’re not alone.

When kids transition away from taking naps, it feels like it throws their whole sleep schedule out of whack. It can be the cause of several toddler sleep problems.

I hear this complaint from families all the time. When their child naps at daycare during the week, bedtime is impossible. But on the weekend, with no nap, sleep training, and bedtime, is much easier. 

The challenge is: many daycares are required by state laws or licensing to offer a nap, so it can leave parents in a bit of a pickle. 

But there are ways around this. 

Listen on for tips to help your toddler become an awesome little sleeper.

“How long does sleep training take?” I get this question from parents all the time.

When you use my REST Method™ which is taught in my toddler sleep course, Sleep Tight Without a Fight, the process is mapped out to take 2 weeks. 

Meaning, after 2 weeks, your child will be able to fall asleep by themselves without you in the room and sleep through the night until at least 6am with no wake ups. 

For most families, they see massive improvement in a matter of days. This could mean reduced bedtime battles, less tantruming, fewer or easier overnight wake ups.

In fact, some families have ALL their sleep problems fixed in a matter of days. While other families may take up to 2 weeks or even longer. 

There are 2 factors that can impact how long sleep training will take with your child which I cover in detail in this podcast episode.
